Comments Thread For: WBA Suspends Shannon Briggs Six Months for Failed PED Test

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The WBA announced Thursday afternoon that it has suspended Shannon Briggs for six months because he failed a pre-fight, performance-enhancing drug test two months ago. The 45-year-old Briggs was supposed to face Fres Oquendo for a version of the WBA's heavyweight title June 3 at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Their highly scrutinized title fight was canceled once a test by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association determined Briggs had dramatically elevated levels of testosterone in his system.

Imagine waiting for years to get the rematch that is owed to you.

Oquendo has been left hanging forever. The WBA is such a joke.

What a farce around the WBA to let 46 year old Briggs fight 43 year old Oquendo for the WBA regular title. In the 90´s it would be a good fight BUT now ???

Briggs can kiss goodbye to a pay day now. Might aswell just retire. It isn't going to happen.

Briggs vs. PEDvetkin battle of the cheats in Russia. I am sure the WBA would sanction this with no shame.

Short suspension but, when you're in your 60's, any kind of layoff is damaging.
