lol, there soooo many things wrong with what briggs says i dont know where to begin...
"People have a lot of negative things to say about Don King, first of all I think it's because he's a black man, and because he's a very successful black man."
- lol, yeah like byrd, holyfield and all the other former king fighters that have sued him and talked bad about him are racist
"the Shelly Finkels of the world are destroying boxing."
- how? by giving a ranked, undefeated, deserving contender a shot at the title instead of an undeserving, unranked one
"now they are fighting Calvin Brock or Calvin FLOP,"
- at least brock has earned his title shot, unlike briggs... and brock may not sell alot of tickets, but he did beat the guy briggs could not, mccline
i feel for briggs that he was strung along while, oleg/rock was the real
opponent they wanted, but:
1. he didnt lose anything, he still signed with king and will get his shot
2. he's still undeserving of a title shot
3. he's beaten nothing bums and journeymen
