But should people like that be boxing professionally? Don't get me wrong, no one should begrudge anyone earning a living. But boxing is, after all, an entertainment business. This sort of thing doesn't seem to happen in MMA. I'm sure he's braver than than your average layman, absolutely. But if you're not prepared to put it all on the line in a combat sport I don't see the point really.
Maybe he doesn't have the right connections to fight the bigger and better fighters. I'm sure if he was offered 1 Million to fight Calzaghe tommorow he would take it - as would I, but you need the right people around you to make fights happen.
some People Realize Their Limitations And Have No Desire To "step Up"; Being A Local Hero Is Sufficient. There Are Lots Of Fighters Like This, They Never Fight Anyone Coming Off Of A Win, They Fight A Lot Of Folks With Losing Records Or Fighting Their Pro Debut, And They Make Some Money Doing It As A Hobby In Front Of Small Crowds.
It's Likely A Personality Trait That They Are Satisfied With Not Being Ranked Amongst The Best, But They're Also Scared Of Being Challenged To Endanger Their Records...
Shannon Briggs would be a much more successful fighter in the 15 round era. Because if he went any more than 12 rounds every single opponent would slump into unconsciousness due to fucking boredom.
