    Comments Thread For: Jones Says Suspension To Be Lifted, Ready For Briggs

    Cruiserweight champion Guillermo Jones (39-3-2, 31KOs) says his suspension will be lifted and he will be ready at any time to face former WBO world heavyweight champion Shannon "The Cannon" Briggs (58-6-1, 51 KOs).

    This past Friday night in Panama City, Jones confronted Briggs in ring, following the former champ's first round knockout of Hungarian journeyman Zoltan Petranyi (51-22-1, 16 KOs) at the Hotel Sortis.

    Jones has been inactive since testing positive for a banned substance before an early 2014 rematch with Denis Lebedev. He was suspended afterwards and then legally appealed that decision. He claims a deal has been reached to lift that suspension and he plans to compete as a heavyweight upon his ring return.

      I think it's safe to assume neither fighter will request VADA in this one

            briggs doesnt want to fight anyone because he says he has agreed to fight wladimir in september which would be a disgrace of a fight for a world champion.
            btw jones would destroy briggs in no time. hes scared of that dude

                sure why not? a couple of 40 year old sluggers going at it. Sadly at 43 Jones would be a massive step up for briggs in his latest comeback. Jones would be a tough fight for briggs & he wouldn't have to make weight.
