    you may not like him but he is still capable of stopping anyone in a fight..

      Shannon Briggs would be a real test for Haye..
      I think Briggs is the perfect opponent for Haye at this point. If Haye can stop him, or even last 10 or 12 rounds of his bombs, then he proves he can belong in the HW division. As asthmatic and inactive as Shannon is these days, he does have good pop and a pretty decent beard.

        i dont think at this point briggs will be of any danger to haye who's a fast mover. when looking at briggs last 2 fights, he looked slow as hell. if it wasnt for the hail mary knockout he scored in lykhovitch fight he wouldnt have become a champ. and then sultan outpointed him, and briggs looked horrible in that fight. barely threw any shots, and those that he threw didnt really land on the target, and he got tired in the second round. haye will be too quick, and with that weight from roids briggs cannot box and expect to be effective. he's just way too heavy.

          Birggs is way too slow and plodding for young Haye who will be way too fast.

            Haye better keep his hands up.. Briggs might end up countering him like he did against Lyakhovic..

            Haye would be lucky if he gets to fight a sick and lethargic Briggs, it would make his time easier..

            And when will Asian Sensation post his interview with Briggs?

              I think an in-shape Briggs who throws more than 2-3 punches a round would be a serious test for Haye but I don't think he has anything left at this point of his career.

              Briggs is a super heavyweight who can KO with one punch and if Haye could take his punch and KO him that would prove a lot (if Briggs came to fight, not to stall like against Ibragimov).

                Exactly. Haye would win by KO in an early round.

                  Good match i'd like to see, would definitely test Haye.

                    Why do you like him so damn much? All he has is power, he is so one dimensional....

                      If Briggs had of worried more about getting in better condition and shedding some weight, then maybe he would have been in a position to let Haye chase after him.
