What on earth is Shannon Briggs going on about?

[Spicoli]

For a guy who runs on and on and is so long winded Briggs is not when it matters.

[Majesty]

Maybe he'll fight two rounds this time.

[El Kabong]

So he's dedicating himself getting KO'd to asthma sufferers everywhere?


I've had asthma and it's really not kept me from doing much of anything, I've played virtually every sport in the world (including boxing) and it hasn't really hindered me.

You should read what Chicken Little has said recently "Anybody who signs to fight the Klitschko's is either desperate or just there for a paycheck" ....yep unlike Monte Barrett or Audley Harrison . Say what you will about Briggs, Sosnowski, Sam Peter, Chisora (eventhough that fight hasn't been signed), etc but at least they have the balls to get in the ring with the Klitschko's.

True that. If Haye has nothing to worthwhile to add then I think he would be better off not mentioning the Klitschko's anymore. He just makes himself look worse every time he brings them up. These other guys might not be ATG's but they are at least getting in the ring (not always in the correct shape mind, but that's another argument).

Maybe Wlad and Vitali should train these guys up a bit before they fight them...it can be boxing's version of "The Biggest Loser" and the Winner (or in this case "Biggest Loser") wins a title shot/ass whuppin from the brother of their choosing.

...you may get your ass whupped, but at least you'll be in shape

[No Contest]

How did Briggs get this fight? Was it getting outworked by Sultan, or his great wins over Alexander and Calloway? This is a serious waste of time. I'd rather see someone like Boytsov step up or Solis. Povetkin, Ustinov, anyone but Shannon Briggs. He thinks he could knockout Vitali....lol he will probably get knocked out before his asthma kicks in.

Briggs is trying to unite all the asthma sufferers in the world because many die and the disability is not seen as serious.
