WBC #1, IBF #10 light heavyweight Paul Briggs has dreamed of fighting all time great Roy Jones Jr and now there is a posibility it could happen on Superfighter. Briggs said, "I've always wanted to fight Roy Jones Jr and there could be the opportunity here to have Paul Briggs versus Roy Jones Jr in a four-round 'tear-your-heart-out' match." Superfighter CEO Stephen Duval said, "Several other fights were under consideration for the Telstra Dome event, possibly including a light heavyweight bout between Briggs and Jones. "I can't confirm anything at this stage, but we are looking at some four-round bouts between fighters of other weight divisions to promote other Superfighter events that will be taking place around the world next year." Briggs fought under similar conditions in his days as a world kick boxing champion.
