Speculation has been rife in regards to the identity of David Haye's upcoming opponent and the heavyweight boxer has finally revealed who his next fight will be against - cancer.
David Haye announces 'fight' in aid of Stand Up To Cancer campaign | London Evening Standard
Shadow boxing it is
He basically just used all the Bellew Hype from Saturday and his twitter page to build up some interest in the UK.
Very good cause though as Cancer affects pretty much all of us ;) Loads of celebrities are involved with this.
Was expecting to hear that he is infact gonna fight again so pretty bemused of what exactly he's waiting for? :-\
Go Cancer go! Go Cancer go!
Hahaha Haye is fucking horrible

Breaking news: ross reaffirms that he is a humorless pussy
Very noble of you, Haye.
Now get the f*ck out of our boxing forum.
To be fair he's obviously waiting to see if he gets in the shake up for one of the title eliminators. There talk of the WBA, Talk of Hughie Fury in a 4 man tournament for the WBO, if Wlad fights Browne, AJ is looking for a dance partner. Admittedly some of it is pie in the sky, but he is gonna make sure he doesn't miss out.Quote:

If he gets injured or cut in sparring, does the fight with cancer get moved to a different date? I bet no and people won't even get their donations refunded. This guy can't stop conning everyone.
Can't really fault him or slate him for this one I suppose - but he's still a waste of space in the boxing world
Yep cant knock him for it. He is a generous bloke. This year alone he's made sizeable donations to the Mark de Mori and Arnold Whatshisface 'Keep us off the building sights a little longer' grand appeal.
Briggs should be fighting and staying busy not putting his career on hold for Haye.Quote:

If I know how David Haye operates, and I do the match we will end up getting is David Haye vs The Common Cold.....he's just using Cancer because of it's brand name value to get publicity ;DQuote:

David Haye versus Tony Bellew is in the works for February 2017, according to promoter Eddie Hearn. The Matchroom chief is keen to see the WBC cruiserweight champion fight Haye early next year and has revealed he is hopeful of finalising the much-discussed event in the coming weeks.
Bellew, 33, called out his British rival following his knockout win against Haye's good friend BJ Flores in Liverpool last month. And despite the size disparity between the two men, Hearn has confirmed it is a very real possibility.
"We hope Haye versus Bellew will happen in February," Hearn told IBTimes UK, before speculating Haye will seek to fight for the WBO title recently vacated by Tyson Fury. "I think Haye will fight for the WBO title at some point next year. I think he'll probably fight the winner of Joseph Parker against Andy Ruiz," the promoter shared.
Meanwhile, Hearn is poised to promote his first overseas card in Monaco this weekend and has revealed that Matchroom's progress into overseas territories has been slow because of the recent "boom" in British boxing. The show in the principality features Luis Ortiz versus Malik Scott, as well as Jamie McDonnell against Liberio Solis.
"It's just a natural progression," explained Hearn, who also promotes IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. "I mean, we looked to do a few shows in the US a while back, but with the boxing boom in the UK, we haven't really felt the need. But I think the US shows will come next year, and obviously we've got Monaco this week, so we're always looking to progress and evolve."
Hearn admitted to having lofty ambitions for 2017, but said there was no guarantee his dream fights will come to fruition. Asked what he hopes to achieve next year, Hearn quipped: "Retire! No, I'm just joking. Kell Brook versus Amir Khan, David Haye versus Tony Bellew, Wladimir Klitschko versus Anthony Joshua ... there's loads we want to make. But I've learned that I can tell you this and then if it doesn't happen I'm branded a letdown, so we'll see."
