Comments Thread For: Briggs: I Knew Tyson Fury Would Shed Weight, Restore Career

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

SHANNON BRIGGS exudes the type of self-confidence many a young fighter would envy when I ask why, at the age of 47, he is venturing back into the sport of boxing. "I never left, I never left," the veteran heavyweight, whose last outing came in a 2016 knockout win over Emilio Ezequiel Zarate at the O2 Arena, tells Starsport.

Briggs is the MAN!!

Sky or BT need to give this man a broadcasting job, Briggs knows the sport and knows how to speak to the fans, i'd much rather watch Briggs break down a fight than Froch or Johnny Nelson.

I don't think Briggs will ever fight again, he's talking about comeback for years.

I knew Briggs would fail a drug test and not revive his career.

David Haye would of ended Tyson Fury inside 5 rounds. Tyson Fury is overrated, he has had two so called great wins! But when you analyse them, from a technical perspective they are poor fights

I still think all the things Haye stated about Tyson Fury are not far from correct. 'There are massive flaws in his game, and they will be exploited'.

I think he was talking about Briggs, not Fury.

I remember briggs motivating Fury when he was fat

I think he was talking about Briggs, not Fury.

David Haye would of ended both of them. 'But I agree reading back, I assume he was talking about Shannon Briggs' Briggs was a really good fighter, especially in the 90's. 'I think there was a stage when he pumped himself too big, in the early 2000's' ridiculous still carried his power over though.
