    He doesn't have brain damage, he's actually a shrewd businessman. He is well aware he will never be able to fight his way into contention and get a shot at a nice retirement payday - he just wasn't big enough like say a Tyson or Holyfield to get that on name alone.

    So he does this. And you know what, it wouldn't shock me if it did land him the payday as a tuneup fight for Wlad or maybe Wilder. If I were a washed up old HW contender like Briggs looking for some cash, I would give a publicity campaign like this a try. Why not? What has he got to lose?

    i think Briggs kinda gave up on Wlad and now is stalking Wilder. Briggs - Wilder makes much more sense than Wlad - Briggs.

    Let's go champ. I'm sure Fury won't just sit there like almost every other object of Briggs fascination.

    Briggs and Fury trash talking each other would be hilarious

    I hope so. Fury will shut him down quick.

    He can fight Hughie!

    If he did, I think he might get jumped by Fury's family ... which would actually be hilarious.

    Could be a Haye-Chisora press conference brawl - Part 2.

    Briggs should be locked up.
    The way I see it his press conference invasions are like 'Fan Man', just some mentally ill loser looking for attention.

    He shouldn't be anywhere near boxing ring after what Vitali did to him, nevermind world title boxing. And he certainly should never have gotten that shot either.

    It's like Iran Barkley or Leon Spinks turning up at the press conference demanding a fight. Very sad.

    Things did get very heated between Fury and Cunningham's people after the fight.

    Both these vids are basically are the same but IIRC I think you see different angles of what's happening.

    The funniest thing was when Naazim Richardson started whining about dirty tactics from Fury. Er.. who are you most famous for training again? lol
