That would actually make sense for Fury's comeback fight. The one guy who has a slight name that he'd be able to beat.

Tyson aint fighting anybody soon, let's be honest. Even Briggs must realise this, so is just sounding off.
At least with his ridiculous chasing of Klitschko and Haye, he had an outside chance of getting the pay day, if he could get enough people talking about him. This is just some guy who isn't relevant any more talking smack on Twitter.

Maybe he could get his mate Eddie Hearns to promote it.
You have to feel sorry for Briggs though, he's been cursed since he was a kid, who the fornicate names a boy Shannon?

He wont be able to stalk the Fury's like he did with Klit and David Haye. He'll get filled in if they don't find it funny.
I feel sorry for Briggs though. He needs one or two paydays so he can retire. He got screwed big time when he was in a coma. Hopefully he'll get his payday and that'll be the last of him. He wasn't a top fighter even in his prime.

Tyson could turn up in that shape and still beat Briggs

Never gonna happen but IF Tyson was ever serious about returning this would be the sort of fight I'd expect as he's had a long time off & needs someone with some name value but still beatable.

Fat Tyson Fury Vs ripped but ancient Briggs.
The biggest freakshow fight since Mayweather McGregor.

He needs to get a fight soon, he's been shot for years, and he can't be living of fresh air, I would have thought he would get one last payday.
I suppose there Haye loses to Bellow again

Mayweather vs McGregor seems like a completely legitimate contest by comparison to that mess.

My god daughter is called Shannon.
Perhaps his dad is a Jonny Cash fan and wanted his boy to grow up tough and mean?

Americans have this odd way of degendering (is that a word) first names.
In boxing we have Eg Kelly Pavlik, Tracy Patterson, Shannon Briggs.... not Sues as far as I know

I think it's more just names often start out male, then sometimes get used for females, and then shift over to being mostly female, then only female, and it doesn't happen so much the other way.

Yes you're right.... take Kellie Maloney for example. She used to be a man.

Remember the tough Aussie fighter named Shannan Taylor?
He nearly died when he did a line of coke which turned out to be heroin.
