Briggs is an ideal next opponent because he is a big name, ranked and easy to beat. David Haye will take on the better fighters 2017 but the main thing for him was to test his shoulder, not get injured, fight regularly and win with big crowds. He has done all that and everything is going according to plan.

Haye is in it for the long term, otherwise he could have tried to cash out but Joshua is still a bit green, Fury hates him and will not fight him, Wilder has to fight Povetkin. Realistically Haye could win the other trinket but he is keeping all his options open which is smart.
This doesn't make sense mate. How do you suggest that he could possibly "Cash Out."? he has no choice but to work his way back and make himself credible. You've even written above reasons why he wouldn't be able to Cash out. He has no Fucking choice!
I like Haye, but people have to understand that all he is doing is earn as much money as he possibly can . It's not about titles, It's not about being the best , it's about earning as much as he can, as quickly as he can . if he can con a few people into thinking he's there for the duration and he's "Quicker, faster.stronger than he's ever been and his Timing is spot on", then more fool them .
I don't have a major problem with it because I'm not putting a single penny his way, and I don't feel mugged off, because I know what I expect , but other people have to realise this.
It's a bit like people feeling robbed when Floyd fought Manny because they thought it would be this amazing fight! It was always going to be what it was and as long as you realise this and don't expect unrealistic shit to happen, it's fine.
