    I'm aware he technically won those, that was my point. He's a joke and neither of those are legit championships.

    A. Foreman clearly won the fight and got robbed. Briggs did not deserve that title by any stretch of the imagination. Foreman retired because the decision was so bad. Briggs was promptly dismantled by Lennox Lewis who barely broke a sweat in doing so.

    B. He won the other belt off of....Siarhei Liakhovich. Ever heard of him? Exactly, neither has anybody. Sultan Ibragimov then absolutely destroyed Briggs and once again Briggs lost in his first defense and it wasn't competitive at all.

    Charles Martin was the "heavyweight champion of the world" at one point too. Will he be wandering around filming himself explain that to strangers so they can pretend to care for photos?
    There is a pretty funny youtube Video of Charles Martin filming himself all coked out. So yeah he has already done that...

      Briggs should fight Leapai, Allen or Browne. Heck he should go to Japan & fight Fujimoto. Briggs went 12 with Zumbano Love for f**k sakes... Oliver McCall has had a couple fights recently. They should fight or Ray Austin who is 48 & fought twice the last year...

            Liakhovich is the Ex-HW Champ who Wilder splattered on the canvas and left him twitching in a pool of drool. One of those scary, life threatening KOs.

            Arguably the shot that put Wilder on the map.

              Must be that IBF belt. It did the same thing to Fury.

                  He could get any European licence (e.g. Luxembourg) to fight in the UK to avoid stringent checks.
