Comments Thread For: Lucas Browne-Shannon Briggs Ordered For Vacant WBA Belt

[bopbopbbe]

What the **** has briggs down in the past few years to deserve a title shot besides follow klitchko around. This is a freaking side show fight.

[E-Sharp]

Not only are their rankings terrible, but they decide it's a good idea for the 5th and 8th to fight for their belt. WTF?

1. Luis Ortiz
2. Wladimir Klitschko
3. Alexander Ustinov
4. Fres Oquendo
5. Lucas Browne
6. David Haye
7. Manuel Charr
8. Shannon Briggs
9. Joseph Parker
10. Jarrell Miller

The WBA updated their rankings. Browne is now #3 and Briggs is #5

THIS SHIXT IS FOR A TITLE WTF!!!!! a

[giacomino]

Meh, the alphabet boys set up one-sided crap fights for "vacant" alphabet belts all the time. Ricky Burns was ranked 6th by his organization but mysteriously got a shot at a vacant tile vs an overrated cupcake. GGG won his first belt vs a guy who has been KO'd in the 1st round eight times. Culcay won a junior middleweight belt by beating a guy ranked 128th by boxrec. This is a horrible, horrible "title" fight, but because boxing is horribly corrupt, this ****e happens all the time

OMG I cant believe this.....We got a guy testing positive caught red-handed and takes a few months off to get a title shot for the same belt he was caught cheating for.......I dont.....I cant......I dont think I want to watch the HW division ever again.......Thankfully I still got Deontay Wilder my hope rest on this man...the only clean legit hw champion of the world...what a sad time this is.

Note: I dont know if Im just devastated and cant comprehend things right now...but the article states this title was vacated by Fury...but wasnt Tyson 'THE SUPER CHAMPION' and Chagaev the regular champion....so that would mean that Browne is getting a shot at the same title he tested positive on vs. Chagaev?......anyways....**** this division.

Lol, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Briggs will blitz Browne and KO him early. Shannon Briggs may be a world champ once again, holy hell! And are y'all ready for a 2017 world title between Shannon Briggs and Fres Oquendo? LMAO. Let's go Champ!!!!!

[Methodical]

In what universe does Shannon Briggs deserve a title shot? And people actually wonder why boxing is a fking mess. How does he get so highly ranked to be in a vacant title fight?

Curious to know how you feel since haye is also in line for a total shot.

Boxing is a joke

[CoachMac34]

Vlad vs AJ for the "super" title and Briggs vs Browne for the "regular" title, huh ? Some of you knowledgeable fans please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the WBA in the process of eliminating the number of belts in each division ? They should just say that this fight is to determine the #1 contender for the WBA champion (winner of AJ - Vlad).

Lets go champ!!! Briggs world champions 2017! The peoples champ!
