    The Cannon's in town, flew over to London, they didn't let him in at the weigh-in, Eddie put a restraining order on him, but he'll be ringside tomorrow

    Good to know there will be a real lineal champion there on the night.

    Something for the combatants to one day aspire to being.

    I don't want to see a single person suggesting that Briggs could be a credible or even "interesting" opponent for the winner, since everyone bashed Carlos Takam in my thread on him maybe wanting a rematch with Joshua or Povetkin as if that very idea was ludicrous. :nonono

    Credible, no. But he might be an interesting tune-up. Briggs is entertaining. In general, I'm opposed to guys "talking their way" into a fight like David Haye did, but there is something about Briggs that is endearing.

    He really needs to get himself into the WBC top 15 somehow, so he can be a late replacement on short notice.

    Hearn: "Shannon, just fight Whyte first. If you beat him, I'll let you fight Joshua. Big stadium fight. Mexican style."

    I think a 2018 Carlos Takam, even though he isn't a big puncher, is a lot more dangerous and interesting than a 2018 Shannon Briggs.

    Hell, I'm not sure prime Briggs was a better fighter. Just a one trick pony with some okay power, low hand speed and terrible stamina (plus asthma), even when he was young.
