Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye made easy work of Joe Fournier earlier tonight (Sat., Sept. 11, 2021) live on FITE TV pay-per-view (PPV) from inside Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla., winning the opening PPV fight via unanimous decision.
Despite Haye’s track record as a top-tier heavyweight with knockout power he did very little to put the pressure on Fournier. Instead, it was Fournier who pushed the pace and took the action to the former heavyweight champion. Haye’s headwork and movement allowed him to stay out of harm’s way and land the shots he needed to win on the judges’ scorecards.
