When he fought VK i invited to people over just to watch Kirk come in fat as ****. But this guy really sucks. He seems like he is very sloppy, just hoping to land the big shot. He looked very serious at the start of the fight like he was going to kill briggs. But as soon as he got hit he was done. My question is does this guy have a weak chin, or does shannon just have a strong punch.
    hey we got a tyson bet rite my 10 million to ur 5

          Briggs AND McCline should both consider gender-switching surgery.
          They are so close to being bitches that it should be an out-patient procedure.

A combination of both, either way my prospect went into the garbage can and Briggs looked impressive enough to generate some interest.

            On a side note, Kirk is underrated only if he would get himself in shape he could easily be top 10 material again.
            Spinks...don't let it bug you. Everybody picks a pony that turns into a donkey (am I the only one that can't not hear "Shrek" saying the word 'donkey' when I type it?) right before their eyes once or twice. It happens, that's just one of the hazards of being a boxing fan.

              Briggs is one of the better boxers and is one of the more powerful punchers in the division. And he has beautiful handspeed. If his head is indeed on straight these days, he could be a threat to any top 10 fighter in the division, up to, and including, Vitali Klitchko. I haven't seen him fight for a long time, but his performance even against the far lesser skilled fighter was great. He did just exactly what a great talent should do when facing such a lesser fighter in the ring.....he made him look ****** for a few rounds, and then knocked his ass out for icing on the cake.

              Seriously, if he has his **** together upstairs, you'd better keep an eye on him. He was one of the biggest disappointments to me in boxing when he had his meltdown ****.....big-time potential, just ****ed up in the head. If he's straightened out now, look out.

                The problem with Briggs is that he can't take a punch too well.

                    Briggs looks good against certain fighters.....I was at the Turning Stone for his last fight. The guy he fought had nothin...
