The only good thing that would come from a Briggs return is another chance to see that fine woman of his. On a serious note, Briggs was a gifted fighter, but never could put it together on a consistent basis. And he went from being a guy who was capable of fighting an active, exciting fight (vs. Lewis) to a guy who barely moves in the ring and throws an occassional power shot. Too bad because his natural physical talent was good.
Shan the man is now 37 years old. I think that should still be o.k. He turns 38 in April. I don´t know if he comes back, he should have been to the event in China, fighting Golota, but he was not in shape. But Briggs said in an interview, that Don King promised him another title shot.
