You can be black AND latino... though I don't think Briggs can qualify for that.

Maybe he called Phelps a maricon prefight & that qualifies one for the Latino title nowadays.

He may have learned a few words in Spanish to qualify :)

To put this win in perspective, Phelps was also knocked out in one round by Middleweight Don George.

I don't think anyone was getting excited with the W. I bet Wlad & Shannon are both glad he didn't lose though so they can do another video soon.

Briggs goes for his uptenth title next: Old grey mare heavyweight title. not bad for someone who suffers from asthma.

Not only is Briggs wherever his opponent is, not only does he eat what his opponent eats, but he's also whatever race his opponent is, 'chump'.

lol....that line still cracks me up.

at least briggs is active:D.

I'm having bad feelings about this comeback... this is like Louis coming back, after beating a few damaged pugs in exhibition matches... this is only going to end badly... Briggs being the "Latino" champion only solidifies this.
