Shannon Briggs has been on a social media tirade today against Tyson Fury and has been leaking various bits of trolling comments and the like.
But now however, he’s actually confirmed on Instagram with the following post that the fight will actually take place in 2018:
It’s confirmed!!!! This is a fight that the people would love to see …… but Fluff the Gypsy Queen outta shape. Hopefully after my insults he’ll either or get off the piss pot. In between time I’ll be fighting staying busy fighting once a month #ireland #Scotland and #London knocking on pies meeting great people around the world until he gets “it” back. “It” being his drive, motivation, and desire it takes to have a boxing career. When you hit the bottom you gotta say #LETSGOCHAMP and say I’m the Champ over & over and start moving. Workout, put on some beats and just go.#LETSGOCHAMP If Fluffy doesn’t fight again ( he said he wanted to last week ) I wish him the best. He did his thing in the boxing game. He became undefeated and undisputed heavyweight champion. Clowning Wald. Sheeeh. Truth is this boxing life is hard Champ and if you don’t come back I understand. I have no choice but to come after y’all. It’s all I know #BrownsvilleBrookyn raised me to run up and set it. Anybody can get it Champ. Anybody. It’s a nightmare that never ends. Boxing can bring the worst people into your life and take you to some dark places. I’ve been in it for thirty years. It’s beat on my mind body and soul but yet I refuse to give up. This is all I ever done. Fight. I have my own demons that have to be kept in check so I don’t knock him for his personal problems. I support him. I stand with him. #LETSGOCHAMP #sidenote ….. but Champ if you ever get right & you decide to fight again you gotta see da Chizzamp or you can’t come back. Ever. No more. Ever. You called me old when I’m ancient. Get it right!!! If he do comeback he getting that #ChizzyChibbyChop that’s that right hand cHaAaMmMpPp I’m stupid Champ straight crazy but I know I’m a good guy because I seen evil people do evil Champ. I told you you they left me for dead Champ. I’m still here. Look at em!!! Anyway boys & girls I’ll be fighting staying busy until the @gypsyking101 can go on a weight loss program. Fat sucka”

Not a bad warm up if it happens. It will be funny at the presser if both are on form.
I miss Tyson Fury mouthing off and then backing it up in the ring.
I might even get a bit emotional

Could Briggs insult the irrational Fury out of retirement? It would be one of the greater things Briggs has ever done for the sport.

Depends whether you take the ramblings of Briggs seriously, personally I think the bloke should be in a mental hospital.

The problem with any potential fight promotion antics between these guys, would be the lack of sincerity about any pretend hatred or insults thrown at each other, because these men get on really well.
And when I say that Briggs and Fury "get on well", I don't simply mean mutual respect either. It goes far beyond that.
So if we witness any heated arguments between these guys, it'll be purely for the sake of the cameras.

If Fury is making a comeback, Briggs would be a reasonable first opponent.

Briggs still wanting that final paycheck.. But what does he want exactly? How much would he settle for? £1 million? Will that be enough to set him up?
Wonder what Haye paid him on his undercard last year.

..no idea how he's been getting all these shots over the years: doping, losing, fighting nobodies and still being relevant at the age of 45
![[icon_e_surprised.gif] :oo](./images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif)
...like they say - nothing can stop the energizer... he just keeps going and going and going..

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
I want Shannon Briggs to lose to somebody so that people realize he's shot
I want Tyson Fury to be knocked out viciously.
I'd rather have the latter because people should've DONE realized Briggs is shot, and the people that still don't think he is are too stupid to bother trying to explain things to.
This fight would suck, and would give both fighters more credibility than they deserve at this point.
Tyson Fury is such a fat sack of worthless sh*t that even Briggs would likely be able to last the distance against him.

I understand that EO. But after the last few HW pressers it will be fun to have some guys with what the UK calls " good bant'a"
It's been so boring of late. I'm weary of humble, manufactured or genuine.

It'd be nice but I wouldn't risk facing Briggs, only because the bastard will most likely test positive for PEDS and the fight won't happen anyway. It'd be a decent tune up match, though I think Fury could be 280 pounds and still beat Briggs.

Sometimes I forget you are supposed to be a mod. Not surprising I forget though reading stuff like that.

Just because I'm a mod doesn't mean I'm not allowed to give my opinion. I don't break any forum rules in doing so.

Umm... Vitali Klitschko couldn't knock out Briggs, what would make you think Fury could? It probably would go the distance or end on a tko because Briggs hasn't went too many rounds in a long time.

Neither will ever have a fighter of the others name value again.

More then likely that this fight will never happen.
Unfortunately/Fortunately hearing what Briggs comes out with to antagonise Fury along the way to whatever happens next will keep people wondering what he'll do next to keep up the show.

Surely calling a fighter a fat sack of worthless sh*t is unbecoming of a mod?

First off. I don't think of myself as "A Mod". I'm the same gilgamesh I ever was before they ever made me a Mod, and prior to being a Mod I would've said stuff like that. Now that I am a mod. I'm still gonna say stuff like that...because that's who I am, and that's how I talk.
If Tyson Fury doesn't like being called a fat sack of worthless sh*t he can take measures to NOT be a fat sack of worthless sh*t.
Hope I've settled that dilemma for ya.

My posts can have a bite to 'em sometimes, yes, but I always say what I mean and mean what I say. I'd say that's a refreshing trait in a World where a lot of people will bullsh*t you all the time, but naturally you're gonna ruffle some feathers sometimes when speaking so bluntly. I'm used to it.
Such is life
