Taking on the ***s in *** York City, he's got more balls than he showed against Klitschko.

So getting a torn tendon in the first round and taking a brutal beating for 12 rounds without running isn't showing any balls? I doubt you've ever stepped in the ring.

It went over your head.

I support the brotha 110% bagel boys don't show any love to the blackman, check the talmud.

Not surprised since it's Shelly Finkel we're talking here.

I hope you win Briggs. $750k is a lot of money. Sue them for twice that!

This sounds like a BS lawsuit. So these guys allegedly forged Shannon's name on two contracts that provided for a purse of $100,000 - then, orally promised him $750,000 for the fight???

Hmmm . . . How long has Shannon been in this business??? Do you expect me to believe he went into this fight without signing a contract and didn't question that?? Does he have a manager who'd let him do that?? Please!! Shannon's a hustler and this sounds like some pure hustle to me.

About those medical bills - promoter's generally have insurance to pay at least some of that. In a country with socialized medicine, you'd think the German gov't would pick up the rest. Maybe there was some trickiness with some deductions but this sounds like a mostly BS case. Good luck with that!
