Nick Blackwell blown away by David Haye's generous donation

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

Haye donated "in the region of" £100,000 to Blackwell to help him prepare for retirement. At the moment in USD that's ~$133,366 dollars. His generosity didn't stop there, though, despite them not even knowing each other.

Blackwell also revealed the lengths Haye has gone to to help him and insists reports the 35-year-old is struggling financially are inaccurate.

"It's amazing, he's been so good to me," he told Press Association Sport.

"I didn't know him before at all, but he's texting me every other day, seeing how I am. He even 'Facetimed' me from Miami.

"I didn't know him but I did some work in his gym - when he wasn't there - with George Groves and Shane (McGuigan, Haye's trainer).

"I'm so lucky, it's given me a real start and I'm really grateful to him. It's more than I got paid for any fight except the last one, against Eubank.

"He's also spoken to me about commentary, and me working as a commentator on his next fight. He's offered to help me find investments, looked into help-to-buy (schemes) and that, and recommended mortgage advisors.

David Haye did this for his countryman out of selflessness, not publicity. I'm impressed!

Classy move.

It's funny that you should put the value in dollars as Haye gets paid in dollars and waited until the pounds value decreased after Brexit before handing the dosh over. He done him dirty if you ask me.

Don't bother asking for evidence as there is none, he knows how to cover his tracks.
