Notes
- Haye knocked down the 29-0 Gjergjaj with straight right in round one. Gjergjaj beat the count and fought on.
- Gjergjaj apparently went down a second time 'flash' at end of round one or after (?) to his knees. He complained he was hit behind head.
- Haye dropped Gjergjaj with a hard left jab in round two. Gjergjaj beat the count and fought on.
- Haye trapped Gjergjaj on the ropes midway through round two and beat him senselessly with power shots to the head from both hands.
- Gjergjaj went down on his back in a corner, got up dizzy wobbly and his legs were gone, prompting the stoppage by referee Terry O'Connor.
- On the undercard heavyweight Shannon Briggs won by first round knockout, setting up a potential lucrative bout with Haye later in 2016.
