People with Asthma should't be allowed to box, so we don't have to listen to all the excuses about how they suffered with Asthma and thats why they lost. They didn't lose because they suck, they lost because Briggs is a 273 pound ****** who has Asthma

no. I'm not making excuses... he lost fair and square he knows his diseases and weight so it's no excuses... but i still give the guy props for fighting with Asthma and he was a 2 time champ(even if 1 was a robbery and second was a prayer)

Do you think him shooting up on steroids helps improve's his asthma or makes it worse?

people here are bashing Briggs for not fighting but you can't really bale the guy. I give him all the props in the world for fighting with asthma and winning a heavyweight belt twice. He is extremely large and Astham is really bad.... i have friends who get tired as hell after jogging for 10 minutes.

Last night he got dominated... i'm not books he won 2 rounds Sultan did a fantastic job...
its just my opinion.

thats a bunch of bs. I have an ex that had asthma and she'd run 5 miles a day without breaking a sweat. its all a lame excuse by a joke of a fighter

also i heard that on march he had a pneumonia, and thats something that in 2 months you are still far away from your 100%...so that must have affected too.
im also not making excuses :P...but the guy has a merit just standing there

I guess ppl are blinded by briggs big muscles to realize his ****ty padded record and the fact that when he did take on good fighters he always lost.

Briggs and his asthma sounds like the kid at school who claimed to have asthma because he didn't want to play sports in gym lessons. Having asthma is not an excuse for being the slowest and most borin fighter in the division.

it effects you a lot... not making excuses he got his ass handed to him but i give him props for fighting with asthma.....that's just me
