Bullshit, pudendum, Browne worked his way up and took an, albeit soft, version of the WBA title from the title holder, Haye has had a massive layoff and not yet, in reality, fought!

I used to like you but nowadays you're proving to be a total imbecile, you inbred fucken hick. Glad you never took me up with my offer for a paid working holiday to Melbourne, you're a total dick.

What has Briggs done except fight bums?

Asking everyone who's not a bum for a fight, but nobody dared. So what else can he do then round 1 KO everyone who does dare to show up?

Except the mighty Zumbano Love.

Briggs is very good at asking people for fights but the truth is he's only looking for a title shot or a big pay day via the easiest possible route. He won't take any risks.

Zumbano Love even stated Briggs is the hardest puncher he has ever been in the ring with, somehow he knew that beforehand and because of that tried to make Briggs tired instead of fighting him. Ofcourse he failed to win anyway and in fact Briggs easely won all rounds, that's how good Briggs his stamina was.

elephant man wrote:So Haye doesn't deserve a title shot because he's fought "Two bums" yet 45 year old Shannon Briggs, who was hospitalised the last time he fought someone with something resembling talent six years ago, is fine? And then the winner having to face the utterly useless Fres Oquendo is also fine? The WBA is a joke 'title' basically the WBO of the 90s. A sham of an organisation. How are the likes of Oquendo and Briggs so highly ranked? Are their names picked out of a bingo machine or do they have incriminating photos of president Gilberto Mendoza?

Mate, it's like trying to ask a dandelion to discuss philosophy, you're wasting your time. Either this person is......

A) Fukcin retarded
b) has jizz-stained posters of Briggs all over their cell
c) Is Shannon Briggs
d) Is Shannon Briggs' Mum, Dad, Auntie or other close relative.
e) Has Shannon Briggs hanging out their shitter as we speak.

Tick as appropriate.

It was for the secondary WBA belt mate. Browne v Briggs for even that husk of a belt doesn't look right to me. I get you're Australian and sticking up for your man but Browne and Briggs aren't anywhere near the elite of the heavyweight division and shouldn't even be fighting for the WBA secondary title. I'm a Scot and we have a similar situation with Ricky Burns holding the same WBA belt at 140. It's a joke and nobody really sees him as a legitimate world champion and it'll be the same with the Browne v Briggs winner. Don't get me wrong I like Browne he comes across a decent bloke and is fun to watch but is he elite at heavy? Not for me.

Burns the real WBA champion mate. No WBA super champion in that division.

What twisted logic did Browne use to come to that ridiculous conclusion?

Yes, Haye hasn't fought a true quality opponent in five years & he was embarrassing when he did, plus he was inactive for 3.5 years of that time, but when was the last time Briggs fought someone with a pulse?

The fact is, neither Haye nor Briggs deserve any type of title shot.

This just sums up how dire the HW division is in 2016.

The sooner the book closes on this year, the better, as far as HW boxing is concerned.

It has to be the most fallow year in modern HW history.
