They made a deal that if Briggs wins on Haye's undercard fight then Haye will
fight him in the fall. Briggs won by KO in the 1st round but according to Briggs
Haye has yet signed the paper work to fight him in the fall and there is talks of
David Haye fighting a different fighter in the fall. Is Haye Ducking??
I doubt Haye ever had any intention of fighting Briggs, he just used his name to promote his recent mismatches.

People might talk **** about this old version of Briggs and he certainly isn't what he used to be, but he would still KO De Mori and Gjergjaj. So yes, he is more dangerous than anybody Haye has faced in 4 years. Does Haye beat him, almost surely, but why take the slight risk of fighting Briggs (who does still have a ton of power and a great chin), when Haye can fight another Bosnian bouncer in front of a packed arena for millions?
Briggs is a bum beater and a circus act. There may be some reason good reason Haye isn't fighting Briggs but it certainly isn't fear of losing the fight to Briggs. Haye is a vastly superior fighter than Briggs at this point in time. Haye can still fight very well but Briggs is washed up and just looking for a big payday without earning it.
Only way you can prove someone is a bum beater is to put him up against someone who is good and the favorite wins by a landslide. Other than that what does he has to prove that he deserves a shot? im not saying Briggs will win or anything but I would like to see him atleast get 1 chance to prove if he is real or not... plus like i said before Haye's was the one who made the deal but now he is not trying to sign the papers.
Briggs is a bum.
If David Haye fights Bellew at 215lbs that is a much better fight and it's a PPV fight, Briggs doesn't deserve any payday imo.
I mean you can say he is a bum but he has destroyed all of his opponents since his comeback. since his comeback 8/9 fights were ended by KO Its only fair that he gets a shot especially since he lived above and beyond the request of David Haye.
