I don't mind watching it for a bit of entertainment, however, only on the condition that Haye doesn't get a title fight without fighting a 'prospect' first.
If he goes straight from Briggs --> Joshua I will be very disappointed.
There are guys more deserving of a shot right now and Haye needs to earn his place, not by knocking over bums and pensioners.
Its a terrible fight but Briggs has talked his way into it similar to how Fury talked his way into a Wladimir fight similar to how Haye talked his way into a Wladimir fight so you can't judge too heavily.
First thoughts a "NO". But don't follow the division enough to see where he should be ranked and who he's beating. He's beating bums, but looked at his latest fight and was pretty blown away by how young he moves, this guy is 44? Christ, steroids are amazing.
Still not sure, but It's better than Haye's last opponent anyway. The little I had watched of that guy before the Haye fight his cowardly personality was already evident.

How did Fury talk his way into a Wladimir fight? He fought and won 2 title eliminators and was mandatory for two of Wlad's belts.
Briggs looks like a club level fighter to me - which is a step up from the complete bums that Haye has fought recently. But it's still a very bad matchup imo.
I like Haye but he's conning the public at this point.
