    I don't see Briggs getting a title shot in a month of sunday's - his behaviour is appalling & TBH I don't see any Organisation clearing this.

    Both utter tools, but have too feel for Fury lately, lady luck defo isn't shining down on him.
    If made , lean to a Fury wide decision.

    However Wilder - Fury ?

    Briggs can fight a little still, but I think Amir Mansour wold rip him a new one n the 40+ category.
    So why should he get a big fight over him?.......Just one example, but there are probably at least 40-50 guys more deserving of a title fight right now.

    If Briggs was serious this fight could happen however, the real question is Fury serious. NO, he is too affraid to get that glass chin exposed by a real puncher thus why we have not seen him "step up" unless it's feather dusters like Chisora.

    Big risk, little reward fight for Fury.

    It either ends Briggs KO1, or Fury UD12... with Shannon there are no other tastes.

    :lol:very true. His head is too thick to KO him & his chin is stupider than his own good.

    Fury would beast him in no more than 2 rounds. it's a waste of time.

    although i agree with those on the fight build up, it would be fun. then we'll have a sour taste in our mouth with what happens in the ring. Briggs still has a mouth on him, but he's been shot for years. it wouldn't be a fight.

    no Thanks.

    Honestly I won't make this fight if I was Fury. Its just another out matched fighter that would eventually realize the risk wasn't worth what he stands to lose, and pulls out. I couldn't see Briggs being stupid enough to ever get in the ring with Tyson, ever.

    Also if people remember Briggs sued his manager after the Vitali fight claiming that the guy basically stole all the money from that fight. Briggs lost that court case.....and now he's all over the press and boxing websites. And he's conveniently got cameras and media showing up everywhere he goes.....So you have to wonder what Briggs is all about. Someone with money is paying for air time, specifically so that he can target/hype a fight with the K-Brothers. My guess is someone is trying to make back the investment in this guy that they lost out on when his last manager walked off with the money. My guess is you'd need a whole lot more $$$$ then an eliminator with a semi-well known but non-box office star could generate before "someone" would allow Briggs to actually get in the ring with a live body.

    (Who knows. It could even be that Briggs had some other pending action and he agreed to drop it if the manager could get him another title shot. Vi ca vi it could very well be the same shyster that screwed him that is putting up the cash and drumming up interest in another K-Bros fight. I don't know?????)

    hell, fury has yet to be in with a live body. briggs would be far and away his most dangerous fight yet. that shows how protected fury is, not how good briggs still is. btw, i have an early briggs ko of fury.

    I too favor an early Briggs KO if that fool Tyson Fury takes him on. No, Briggs is not all that but his punch output, power, & speed in the first few rounds would most likely dominate motor mouth Fury.

    Briggs is fortunate that he is not shot to pieces like a lot of his same-age felllow fighters Toney, Rahman, Maskaev, etc.

    I really like this idea of a figth but it wont happen not on Tyson Furys watch.
