Someone like Briggs?
What do you mean by that? Somebody who is old, past their best and just likes the sound of their own voice?
I expect him to keep fighting youtube boxers and jab divers until he gets the call to fight Joshua, or if not then take the next highest payday.
Any news on David Haye?

The only way Bellew becomes a worrying assignment is if he comes in with Doc Martins on and starts trying to stamp on his toes.big lennox wrote: 3) He views Bellew as being too tough an assignment at this stage of his career. .
Haye outguns Bellew in every conceivable department.
It wouldn't surprise me if he even loves his Nan more

Yeah Briggs is broke and needed to cash in, haye said he understood why Briggs wanted to be paid so much but said it just wasn't viable.jamesmcdonnell wrote:I think it's far more likely briggs wanted too much money, and priced himself out.Killer Blow wrote:He's obviously not scared of Briggs, but it's very likely he was wary of the 'what if' factor.

I actually understand where Briggs is coming from he's boxed what 60-70 fights and is broke, he has one chance to land a payday that will set him up for the rest of his life against a dangerous opponent which might retire him. He would be daft to take that fight without being paid well, if he was in his 30's I would have a different opinion, but I would like to see him sail off into retirement from the sport he has devoted his life to with a nice fat nest egg.
Hopefully he gets haye for the WBA title and earns a couple of mil on B0xnati0n / BT.

David Haye will be 1 fight away from a world title shot now the division is so fragmented. He only has to sit and wait now. He is where big money is for a poor heavyweight champion who wants a quick defence for maximum capitol. Hayes next fight will be in the new year against an very easy opponant that has a highly inflatable record. Then he will get a world title shot.
