    Is this actually on for Saturday or will it be good old Tom Bob Anderson for Briggs?

    Im sure I read that Dimitrenko strongly denied that he was fighting Briggs. Also, boxrec has the opponent down as TBA. Yet IFL interviews with Briggs are still mentioning him as the opponent for Saturday...

    Does anyone actually know for sure who Briggs opponent actually is?

    Seems very cloak and dagger, would be put money on it not being Dimitrenko to be honest.

    boxrec still have tba.
    dimitrenko said hes not been offered the fight.

    haye and briggs in todays ifl videos are still acting like its dimitrenko.

    i smell a rat! expect a so called cancellation tomorrow from dimitrenko and a last minute complete bum at the ready saturday night.

    haye cons the public again but the casuals will eat it up just like the harrison fight

    Yip. It's definitely going to be a pregnant Latvian. KO1 and then set up the "haye day 3"

    Embarrassing

    It is on Dave so maybe this is their attempt at 'witty banter'

    Briggs will be in with a knock over, Haye is calling the shots money money money. Can't have a chance Briggs may get beat.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Konstantin Airich showed up to fight Briggs.

    Few days before the fight and still TBA... looks like someone will be wheeled in for Briggs to look remotely good against then.

    He lasted a whole three rounds with Chisora...

    It was obvious that it was never going to be Dimitrenko. We all know Shannon prob can't beat anyone in the top 50 at this stage, hence his level of competition in recent times.

    Gladly when you go on the o2 website there are thousands of tickets avaliable. You can even get 10 together.

    This is going to bomb hard.
