DAVID HAYE will come out of retirement to lock horns with Shannon Briggs, the American claims. Haye, 38, called time on his 16-year professional career following a second successive defeat at the hands of Tony Bellew in May 2018. The former world heavyweight champion was an overwhelming favourite heading into his maiden bout with Bellew, yet suffered a shock stoppage loss after rupturing his Achilles tendon halfway through the contest.

Give it a rest, a diminished version of Haye and a far past in Briggs - what's that going to do for the sport, even with the WWE theatrics how can you fill enough seats for this fight?
Haye is probably under the Light Heavyweight limit right now and Briggs is just a fat old man without the roids. He should let this go. It's sad that Shannon never got to cash out a couple of years ago, but he should let it go now. He is seen as little more than a comedy act in the UK. Most of the Matchroom casuals still to this day would be surprised to discover Shannon is a former World champion.
There's little point in anyone chasing a fight with Haye, he could come back but beating him will not earn the respect it once would have. At this point the man can't put much weight/pressure through his legs without rupturing ligaments and tendons all over the shop, so it is pretty much impossible for him to fight anywhere near the best of his ability. Tony Bellew proved that twice already.
Man if haye takes this fight then I'll give him the 2019 most courage award.Dont be scared haye lol.i was gonna give it to Mikey Garcia but this tops that.
Haye did lose glory by promising Briggs, then choosing bellow.. Briggs should leave that man alone and stop bullying him.. lol. He doesn't want to fight you Briggs. You need to go after some young blood champ.. stop chasing haye after class.. lol.
This chit with Briggs is sounding too desperate
Haye , imo , will never be in a ring again
Nothing to gain from this fight
Makes a lot more sense , circus wise and financially , vs Chisora
What a fughin circus that would be , pre-fight and the fight itself
