While the Rahman-Toney decision may have muddied the heavyweight waters even further for many fight fans it was a saving grace for the newly crowned USBA, NABO, NABA, and NABF Champion Shannon Briggs. While working the Heavyweight Slugout 2 fight card last night in Fort Smith as an inspector for the revitalized Arkansas Athletic Commission, I watched a transformation take place in Shannon Briggs camp and in Briggs himself as reports came in on the Rahman - Toney bout.

What about Maskaev?

Arum promissed Briggs he is next for Rahman. Bullshize, Rahman should fight Maskaev next.

Briggs is just as deserving as Maskaev, which is 'not very'.

Makes no difference. **** is ****.

The guy is ranked number 1. There should at least be some decency in all of this.

No there shouldn't, becuase the fact he's ranked #1 in the first place is indecent.

given that he is ranked # 1, he should fight next; it would only cause more indecency

in any case, who should be ranked above him?

Many people.

When's the last time Maskaev beat a top ten fighter?

He has no business fighting for a title. Neither does Briggs, so no matter who's fighting, it's ****ty.

Rahman has no business being the champion after that fight, Maskaev suits him just great.
