Why haven't they asked Briggs to find MH370 in his boat? ???
They have both appeared in movies so .......Quote:

Oooh.....it's all gone a little bit JFK.
i'm not sure it's a set up, Wlad won't make any more dough fighting Briggs than any of the other stiffs he will probably fight, so why would he let himself be filmed looking like a fool falling off his board? although perhaps that wasn't meant to happen .
I just reckon Briggs is a fuckin lunatic with a particularly good sense of humour! ;D
I reckon he's seen Haye taunt the Klits and get a payday and thinks he can do the same, although Haye did bring a title to the party.
I reckon it was a stunt that went better than expected! When Wlad falls into the water, you can see Briggs pissing himself, but asking " are you Ok Champ?" that makes me think that wasn't supposed to happen , but wtf.
A) Wakeboarding is "an extreme sport" which would be odd for a boxing champion to be doing while preparing for a big fight especially after having just recovered from an injury which postponed the fight. Paddleboarding is exercise. Just making note that there is a difference and it is substantial.Quote:

Wlad has dealt with this kind of shit before and he has NEVER "played the game"...he seems genuinely pissed off and rightfully so. Ali hounded Sonny Liston like that well before the days of the internet and people never said "That's staged!" even when Liston drew a gun on Ali and fired blanks in the air in a crowded casino.
Shannon Briggs is out for money, he's out for 1 last big shot at the titles and he's pulling out all the stops.
I got the name wrong... Don't know if it warrants an excited, pedantic explanation of the differences and ramifications, but thanks...
Ali tracked Liston down on vacation and strafed him in a motorboat did he? ??? Like I said... Press conferences and gyms etc are one thing...
I heard that Briggs is planning on pelting Wlad with tomatoes from a convenient hot air balloon during one of Wlad's scheduled dog walks.
Wlad gets a fight that people are talking about... There's barely enough opponents to capture hardcore boxing fan's interest outside of Germany, let alone casual fans... Hence the need for pantomime.
Has Wlad done better numbers than when he fought Haye? Would you blame him for trying to recreate a grudge match?
Maybe you think it's below Wlad, or that I'm questioning his integrity? ??? Don't worry about it.
He's selling out arenas in Germany and Switzerland regardless of who he fights. Would fighting Shannon Briggs in America sell?
Now fighting Deontay Wilder or Bryant Jennings might but Briggs???
I said outside of Germany... :)
A Wilder fight would get some interest, I also think that it would be a much riskier fight. It's well known that Briggs is passed his peak and has poor stamina, nobody really knows how good Wilder is yet.
wilder? the guy aint fought ANYONE yet. im not so convinced he is the real deal. however, id still rather watch wilder & briggs fighting chumps than wlad boring us boxing fans to death fight after fight. theres nothing like a wlad klit fight to get u in the proper laidback mood for a good nights sleep!! lol.
;D
Briggs should do less stalking and more fighting to earn his shot. Briggs has a decent chin and good power to make a fight still interesting. Briggs vs Arreola could still be fun.
And Sam Peter just made a comeback and Sam had big beef with Shannon.Quote:

Briggs is now whining about receiving death threats because of his constant pestering of Wladimir Klitschko. Shannon is using the death threats to attempt to shame Wlad into fighting him. Shannon really is pulling out all the stops, he's talking about how he had no big brother to do his fighting for him :rolleyes: , about how difficult he had it growing up in Brownsville :eek:, and about how he doesn't need his internet fans to fight his battles for him which begs the question "Does Shannon Briggs HAVE internet fans???"
Briggs has done a lot of talking and a lot of irritating of Wlad, but he's not proven he deserves a shot where it counts and that's IN THE RING.
Since getting beaten to a pulp by Vitali Shannon Briggs has fought 5 fighters with a combined record of 95-41-5...none of those fighters has much (if any) experience vs the top tier of the heavyweight division, they are all just professional opponents, record padders. Shannon Briggs is shouting at and following around THE MAN of the division...what makes him think he has earned a shot?
really sad innit that wlad is trying so hard to drum up interest in a briggs fight when there are actually a number of live opponents around
ive come to the conclusion that german fans are thick as fuck
