    Chances that Briggs wins vs Haye?

    Zero. He will be in England and it appears he is trying some business ventures like a reality show and spoke with Hearns about opportunities. However, Briggs is old, he cannot beat any of the upper level HWs.

    Haye is an elite HW in his prime and should easily knockout Briggs.

    Some people are giving briggs a chance.

    He made an old Vitali Klitschko look like floyd mayweather, and that was 7 years ago.

    He hasn't beaten even a domestic level opponent in years

    I give him no chance except landing a lucky punch

      Haye is hard to hit, and Briggs fights so aggressively that he is pretty much wide open. It's going to be a massacre with Briggs taking big punishment.

        He is a big HW with power so you can never completely discount his chances & Haye has been real inactive but with that said its almost impossible to see happening.

        Briggs even at his peak all of 15 years ago was never anything too write home about.
        Discounting that farce vs Big George his best win off the top of my head is probably Liakovich & that was in a fight Briggs was badly behind in and pulled it out of his ass in the dying moments.

        He was a total punchbag even 15+ years ago nevermind approaching 45 years of age.
        Still I'll be rooting for him and praying he lands a Hail Mary.
        LETS GO CHAMP!

            Haye is too skilled to lose to Briggs. Haye has not shown to have the ability to get stopped. Haye will land some heavy shots on Briggs who has no defense. I watched Brigg's last fight and he is just holding his right arm but doesn't even unload it.

              Just a punchers chance. He will gas after 2 to 3 rounds, hopefully haye doesnt hurt him too bad.

                When I look at Shannon Briggs, I see a lot of Ken Shamrock. Phenomenal physique, ripped with bulk.

                But likely to fold like a cheap deck chair when hit.

                  I give Wilder a very good chance to beat Haye. Haye is more polished and experienced but Wilder has some things going for him. Neither guy has the greatest chin and both of them punch very hard. Wilder is younger, naturally bigger and stronger and has even faster hands than Haye in my opinion. Wilder has a big edge in stamina and averages throwing over twice as many punches per round as Haye. Wilder has never lost while Haye has lost twice and once by KO.

                    Briggs may not be much of a fighter any more but if there is one thing he is good at it's taking hard punches. I don't think he has ever been knocked down. Vitali gave him a vicious beating for 12 rounds and couldn't knock him down.
