    Probably the two most boring fighters in the Heavyweight Division not named John Ruiz. The fight would put anyone to sleep.

    The only person going to sleep is Valuev when Briggs knocks him out! Unfortunately, the judges will still award the victory to Valuev.

    This fight would be really fun to watch for the first 2 rounds...after that, it has snoozer written all over it.

    If Shannon expects to knock out the Russian giant with one punch, he has another thing coming. Valuev has never been hurt...with that huge cranium, I doubt that he can.

    I’d like to see anyone throw a ****** wrench in that never ending Ruiz, Chagaev, and Valuev three-way trifecta of the unexciting thing they have going on. None of them are KO punchers.........but Briggs is.

    Go, Briggs, (if it is not merely a rumor, and actually happens. )

    Make it no-holds-barred MMA and give them flamethrowers with bayonets, mounted on armoured ligers.

    And MAYBE I'll be stirred to tune in for free. :yep

    They should be forced to have a Gears of War-esque chainsaw duel.

    Oh, time to exhume a has been that never was?
    Whenever guys like Briggs are constantly recycled, that just goes to show how pathetic most heavyweights are today.

    i might favor Briggs!! Both are boring due to inactivity. Diffence his, when Briggs throws, it has a hurting purpose. And the target would be big...

    Well, most of you don't seem to want this fight to go down, but I for one would tune in. I have always been a Briggs fan, and will be rooting for him if this fight is made. Go Briggs!!

    Shannon Briggs is a bodybuilder/ part time boxer only fights 30 seconds of each round.
