Alongside shots of the cash he won, he wrote: "I wouldn't consider myself a gambler but I bet on roulette twice on two and won two times in a row, so round two seems like a nice lucky number for me.

"So if you are going to bet on this fight, round two could work."

The Bermondsey boxer also shared photos on Instagram of him with The Jackal after his points loss to Santa Cruz.

Alongside one, Haye wrote "Frampton is still the champ in my eyes. I scored the fight even, the same as one of the three judges. Amazing fight, and can't wait for the rematch.

"Two great fighters giving their all. Congratulations to both."

The Jackal was rocked by crashing to his first ever defeat but reckons the best man won.

The Belfast Warrior said: “He was very clever and used his reach well. I think he deserved to win if I am being honest.

“Let’s do it again in Belfast.”
