Fury vs Briggs in April

I highly doubt Fury is going to want to step in there with a puncher like Briggs who has nothing to lose and making that his warm up fight.

 

This. For 2 or 3 rounds Briggs could still surprise anyone, especially a come backing out of shape fighter

 

I believe he still holds the record for most 1st round knockouts with 33 and has 7 fights with fights ending less than 30 seconds. People can say what they want but you don't climb back in a ring after 3 years with weight issues against someone like this.

 

Agree.Briggs is a danger for a few rounds.He would have nothing to loose fighting Fury.I think he'd pick up a good wedge(for him).He'll try and rush Fury for 2 or 3 rounds rounds hoping for a big clean shot ,thats until he gasses.At 46 a slick mover like Tyson would be all wrong for him,to give him more of a chance,he needs someone to stand and trade with him. I'd go Fury by UD or late TKO.Price v Briggs would interest me more

 

The build up would be hilarious. Don't see it happening though.

 

I think things would kick off real quick during the press conference. Lol! Both those guys aren’t exactly playing with a full deck.

 

I would be very surprised if Furry fought again without being in dire financial straits. He can afford to lead a hedonistic lifestyle in gluttonous fashion.

 

It would definitely be a sentimental moment if Briggs could finally have a go with a champ.

 

I don't think Fury would be worried about briggs, even if they stepped in the ring tomorrow. The press conference would be like watching the wrestling. It would be awesome.

 

Battle of the Trolls, bring it on

 

Good come-back fight, even if the story isn't right.

Fury is the lineal heavyweight champ & needs opponents with some gravitas, not stooges.

Briggs as a former lineal heavyweight champ himself brings that to the table.

Fury's fights should be billed & promoted as title defences of the lineal championship (which they are).

Nothing wrong with Briggs first fight back.

Give him a payday & get rid of him.

 

If this fight did go ahead be prepared to hear the phrase "Let's go champ" about 50000 times.

 

...yeah, that's just about right. A carny comeback for the carny King

 

The fight actually makes sense. Briggs is a hell of a self promoter, and fury is no slouch in the mouth trash talking department. Both have been inactive and itll be interesting the first 3-4 rounds since Fury isnt the bussiest or most aggressive fighter and Briggs is very dangerous with his 1st round Ko record.

I wouldnt complain, there are far worse fights fury could make for a comeback. What happened to Bellew tho?

 

For me it's almost a done deal.
