    The person who tried filming that failed big time.

    Shannon Briggs is broke living off scraps with no hopes of surviving in life. Humiliating for briggs to stoop so low.

    Well, exactly. Why doesn't Wlad just take out a restraining order against Briggs? I haven't watched the video yet but I will in a moment. A restraining order seems to be the best way to deal with this situation.

    In any event, Briggs in no way, shape or form deserves a title shot. Wlad ought to be ashamed of himself if Briggs ever gets one.

    It is staged as h*ll and belongs in wrestling, not professional sports.

    So I'm supposed to believe that Briggs just happened to know where Wlad would be dining

    ...that there would not be a single other person in the restaurant, except for...

    ONE guy with a camera who JUST HAPPENED to be filming, and JUST HAPPENED to be at the right angle to catch the initial confrontation? The camera was filming Wlads back??? Ok then.

    GTFOH. No wonder I am starting to watch boxing more casually.

    Yeah, I agree. I've watched the other videos where Briggs gate-crashed the Wlad-Leapai press conference and that looked convincing enough, but this last video is just play acting.
    It looks fake and probably is.

    What surprises me is that Wlad is going along with it. Didn't think he'd stoop as low as this. I just hope that this doesn't lead to Briggs getting a title shot...

    If this is acting and it looks like it is poor acting watch for Briggs getting a shot as Wlad says he feels he has to shut this guy up.

    Mike Tyson had body guards ffs.....

    I used to eat at this spot called Hot Sauce Williams in Cleveland, and would see Mike in there from time to time.

    He'd come in a buy everyone's lunch. But he'd have to tell his bodygaurds to stand down whenever a fan approached. They took everyone as a threat.

    One time, several of em jumped the escalator at Tower City as these 2 kids were going down while Mike was going up. The 14-16 yo boys wanted an autograph so they started running up the down escalator. Tysons gaurds climbed over to the other side and blocked the boys from following Mike.

    Of course Briggs brings a guy with a camera. Any iphone has a HD camera. Briggs videos are all over the German media sites. Briggs knows he has to create interest in Germany for him to have a chance at a payday and his strategy is working well so far.

    This looks real. Wlad would never do something like this on camera. Briggs has been stalking Wlad for a long time and felt comfortable that Wlad wouldn't start anything, but wasn't prepared for the water with a mouth full.
