Haye literally ran away from Briggs after verbally agreeing to a fight, and he can’t even beat Bellew. As old as Briggs is I’d still have him winning by KO in a round or two.
Briggs priced himself out of the fight. Don't forget that Haye was fighting on a channel that doesn't usually show boxing so the money wasn't great.
Briggs is old and shot. He doesn't have the ability of Bellew, nor does he have the speed and snap of Bellew.
Briggs would be the one going forward which plays right into Haye's hands with his counter punching. Bellew was smart enough to be the one going on the back foot and making Haye come forward. That wouldn't be the case with Briggs. So I still see Haye knocking Briggs out with 4 rounds.
Haye should retire. Briggs has a fight with Fury I believe. Briggs should also retire. He is never going to be a champion again.All those head blows is setting him up for brain damage in the future. It's up to them if they want to risk their health for money. It probably would be a good fight between two shot to hell ex champs.
Briggs is probably Hayes best option right now.
A fight with Fury would be much more lucrative and go some way to repairing his reputation but i doubt Fury would offer him the fight for the obvious reasons.
Either way, Haye has no career left at the top of the HW division but he can make some retirement paper if he is clever.
That would actually be fun, can't believe I hadn't thought of it before. I think Briggs would actually KO him, hell I think I might KO Haye at this point
