Bellew vs Haye 2: Watch Inbetweeners 'Jay' CRASH press conference with HILARIOUS gift
DAVID HAYE and Tony Bellew's press conference was interrupted today by 'Jay' from hit TV show The Inbetweeners.
The character, played by James Buckley, strolled past journalists towards the two boxers in the middle of their pre-fight press conference.
Haye received a handshake from the actor, before Buckley approached Haye's manager, Adam Morallee, as the fighters ceased trading verbal blows.
The actor handed Morallee a briefcase, which is synonymous with Will McKenzie's character in the show.
The stunt comes after Haye's lawyer was likened to Will from the Channel 4 programme due to his cringeworthy speech at Monday's media event.
Buckley then began to jokingly berate Bellew about a potential bout between the pair, before leaving the room to applause from the media.
“The person who said ‘history always repeats itself’ was wrong. It doesn’t always repeat itself,” Morallee shouted at Monday's event, while being heckled by the crowd.

“Two things might repeat themselves. You lot screaming and shouting and Tony Bellew playing games.
"They may repeat themselves.
“But you know what won’t repeat itself? You know what, this time David Haye is going to win. This time he will, you know it as well. You know it and you [Tony] know it.
“You can kid yourselves all you like, play your little games. Ooh shout at me, oh that’s good.
“You’re wrong. You’re wrong guys. And Saturday night you’ll see.”

The clip of the speech has racked up more than 125,000 views since it was posted online after Bellew likened the fresh-faced Moralee to the geeky Inbetweeners star.
“I can’t get over how much he actually sounds like him,” read one comment.
Another said: “Eddie Hearn sat laughing his head off at him all the way through that.
“Looked like a rabbit in headlights.”
“Nearly p***** myself. Lad how can anyone take him seriously. Top shout at the end,” added a third.
