Comments Thread For: Shannon Briggs To Face Dimitrenko On 'Haye Day' Bill

[BostonGuy]

Finally, finally, finally Briggs is fighting a decent solid credible opponent. Dimitrenko is also on the comeback trail after taking a few years off from the sport. Should be an entertaining fight as both guys try to fight their way back into the HW mix.

That's a fun fight. Briggs must actually think he can win it since he's been holding out this long. Not that I favor him, but Dimitrenko gets hit enough to make it interesting.

Pulev-Chisora this saturday too.

They need to test Briggs. If that isn't a steroid body then nothing is. He is roided from head to toe. His personality now even oozes roids.

In this case I disagree. A roided to the gills Briggs vs Dimitrenko is a fun fight.

A natural saggy old man Briggs vs Dimitrenko would just be some kind of cruel punishment.

I hope Briggs opens up as favourite, my money's going on Dimitrenko.

Roided to the grills is a fun fight??? IF Briggs is, that is cheating and there is NOTHING "fun" about a cheating, period!

It's so common we just can't take it that seriously. Obviously he's on the juice since he's a professional athlete who's physique somehow improved that much in his 40s but we also have to admit that without them, this fight wouldn't even be competitive, and he probably wouldn't be boxing anymore.

Better to target younger/equally obvious abusers like Joshua who juice against already overmatched opponents their own age. Briggs is just a novelty.

[Weltschmerz]

Well that's more than we could have asked for. And a better fight than the main event, ironically.
