    Indeed it is, as long as his opponent not up to much.

    Looks like he's been over there negotiating some sort of deal and he's just posted the date on his Facebook. Mentioned the purse on there now.

    The Arabs have tried to chuck money about in boxing before but with little success would be interested to see if this comes off

    For that dough they could put together a quality 4/5 fight card.

    You've got to be a massive punter to pay Shannon Briggs that much money for fight. He must have taken a few up the shitter to get an opportunity like this!

    Some "Diamond & Gold Belt" apparently. That car in the picture I posted was apparently a gift to him aswell.

    Wish someone would give me a Bently.

    Why the sudden love for Briggs?
