    Looks like Briggs will be on the Burns card

    Get him up here in Scotland, it'll be class. Who would he fight though?

    Briggs won't fight at all.

    Think that would be a good fight to make with a limited budget know doubt for fight but I would be surprised as he is obviously looking for a fight v AJ as a first defense if he wins and if Briggs makes hard work of Cornish it would effect how marketable AJ v Briggs was.

    I would expect The Cannon to stop Cornish inside a round.

    Cornish is of exactly the level of opponents Briggs has been blowing away in a round in this comeback. Despite his padded record, Cornish is really, really, really poor.

    Frank stated in his column that the board might not licence him on mental health grounds- seems fairly relaxed in that video.

    I quite like Briggs/Price as well because of the vunerabilty of Price- however I'd imagine Price will have two tune up fights before anyone half decent.

    It was a great video. To be a fly on the wall and see how Hearn handled the meeting, selling the dream. It was fantastic.

    Hearn makes Sense when sayin shannon needs to fight all over the uk...at the moment. .he has nothing to bring to the table. ..if he fight3-4 ttimes. Scotland...Liverpool. ..then under card of aj in june (if he beats Martín)...will set up a ppv in november december time. . (Only if fury fights wilder) in my opinion

    Fairly obvious from that, that Briggs wants to jump in at the highest level and thinks a view IFL interviews will get him there.

    He is 44 and has beat no one of note. Time to get in the ring and show he is serious.

    If we can get him onto this site, he will probably wind up fighting TerryTibbs within 48 hours...

    Anyone got the Champs number?!

    He's been giving it out on Instagram.

    A couple of things surprised me in the Video, 1 Hearn admitted Joshua mainly trains in Sheffield and not with Sims ( something most knew but for some reason it's hush hush) and 2. He basically admits it's his job to sell the dream to fans and rip them off ( again, we know this, but I'm surprised he let kugan put it out there.)

    Briggs was lapping up his **** as well..!! A million PPV buys? Leave off.
