    Seems like they had reached the agreement so no purse bid anymore. It's on Fight news

    What a great fight between two prime, young top-contenders!

    Great news. Better this WBA HW mess just gets resolved bit by bit, rather than just left as it is.

    Mouth watering matchup. I feel Bronco Billy would habe his shot; he's been overlooked too long now. Is on an 18 streak KO run

    LOL Briggs is funny like always

    From Fight News:
    "I have an opportunity to win another world title 20 years after I won my first one. At 45 I can make history by breaking George Foremans record of 44 years of age to win a world title. How ironic it is that I beat Foreman to win my first world title and now I can break his record. I also can become the first to win a world title in three different decades"

    Embarrassing news for the sport of boxing. Explain how Briggs earned this title opportunity? I can't believe acting like a moron, harassing top fighters and screaming lets go champ qualifies someone for a title opportunity. What has this sport come to?:monoloco: Worst title fight ever.

    I believe John Ruiz is fighting Valuev in an eliminator to face the winner

    Just watched that Oquendo lost to beyond shot 44 y.o. Holyfield more than 10 years ago

    Briggs got beaten by 49 y.o. Foreman almost 20 years ago.

    Now these guys rule the HW division :deal:
