Shannon Briggs "Klitschko is a Punk, Peter is a Cheater"

I am Shannon "The Cannon" Briggs 2 Time Heavyweight Champion of the World. I'm the only fighter in the History of Boxing to become Heavyweight Champion with asthma. What makes this significant is the nature of boxing. I can not call time out and another fighter enters the ring while I adjust and get myself together when I suffer an asthma attack during a Championship fight. No, I do my best to protect myself at all times while trying to breathe.

No other fighter in the rich History of boxing has had to deal with fighting his opponent and fighting to breathe in the ring. Every time I walk into the ring I walk in with a severe handicap. A handicap that robs me of our most basic right, the right to breathe. No other fighter has asthma and achieved what I have achieved. No disrespect to Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali or Sugar Ray Robinson who are great fighters, but they didn't have asthma and win the Greatest Title on Earth, the Heavyweight Championship. Shannon Briggs did. Twice I did it and I will do it again.

I´m speechless and I don´t have asthma. :doh:

 

Shannon Briggs: the Voice of America:bears:

 

"Recently, Maskev lost his WBA Title to an African from Nigeria named Sam Peter. I call him Sam "Cheater". This guy hits in the back of the head so regularly it's become normal for him." ::

 

Briggs is a bitch. He had his shots and blew em.

 

"African from Nigeria"::

He is correct about Peter's tactics though

 

War Briggs!

 

You know, excessive weight/density doesn't help asthma at all.

 

Remember when Lennox knocked him out with his asthma punch?

 

Klitschko is a punk, Peter a cheater and Briggs has proven to be both.

 

:: ::

don't we ever get interviews with anyone with talent::

 

I dare him to go up and say that to the face of Reggie Bush.

 

Or Kendall Gill for that matter.

 

true, true

 

I'd love to see Briggs KO KLITchko

I had hopes for Briggs years ago.. but he just lets us down time and time again

Truer words have not been spoken. Brigg's literally cannot throw punches. I mean not even one or two a round really.... none.

 

Pretty much.

I was surprised he could even raise his arms, let alone knockout Liakhovich late...though Liakhovich made the one mistake you can't make against Briggs...he let him hit him early in the fight.

I think Briggs buzzed him early and could've been taken out by other fighters who could've taken advantage of it. But since it's Briggs, it took him all the way until the end of the fight.

But he isn't KO'ing Klitschko, Dsimon. Though if they ever fight, we can certainly resume our wager.::

I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Peter...at least for a round or two. If it goes past that, though, turn off the television (and seal your eyes shut, just to make sure)...you don't want to see those sloths go at it for anything longer than that.

 

a european from finland an asian from Japan... what's so funny about that? :dunno:



That being said i hope Briggs dies from an asthma attack in the ring. on thing to be a bum but then at least shut the fuck up.

 

:eeeek:

 

Briggs has the same asthma like all those bikers in the tour de france... the i need juice asthma.

 

I'd like to see Briggs fight Sam Peter. I think it would be a good short fight.

You can stick a fork in em Mitchell he is done. :: I swore off of Briggs when he decided that it was ok to get in the ring and not throw punches. IN the Lyvitch fight he was clever and he conserved to some degree. He made a case for the possability that he was capable of mounting a viscious attack a couple of times a fight while occasionally throwing a few jabs now and then. Since that time he has shown no ability to do anything in the ring.

He does not train to box. Even someone in worse shape than Briggs can at least try to train and set a goal to throw like 5 punches a round. He makes no effort, he just gets big, slow and then blames it on the asthma. Yes sir I am done with Shannon. I bet he isn't even really from Brooklyn! :eeeek: ::

 

Shannon Briggs?

:laughing: :laughing:

Just when you think that the HW scene can't stoop any lower, this no-mark meanders out and the division begins to limbo dance... :doh:

 

come on baby boy.. you hate on Briggs cuz even though he blows it time and time again, you know that one day he could be feelin good and level your wet dream Klit-shco

 

I don't even like Wlad. Are you still smoking that weird shit, brother LOK? ::

I repeat:

Shannon Briggs...:laughing: :laughing:

 

come on Feebles! we know you're still kinda new here but I know the deal. You love the brits, you made all these wacked excuses when your fetish Hatton got destroyed, he was to heavy, or light.. or whatever:: now you are on Wlad and Clazone to win againest the Americans. it's always about Germany vs America for you. Can't we all just get a long? I liked Naz and he wasn't from here.
I can not count on Shannon doing it anyway but I felt he had potential.. he just never really lived up to it. It is still possible that he can KO some of your German love gods..

 

Calzaghe will beat Hopkins, but that has NOTHING to do with the fact that I have very little interest in Wlad. He's the best HW around, but that's like being the tallest dwarf in the world right now. It counts for shit, really.

Honestly, from where do you get the impression that I liked Wlad? Or some other 'German love Gods'? :dunno: Chagaev is shit. So is that little midget Wlad played around with, Ibragimov. Valuev is a freakshow. :doh:

Shannon HAD potential, about TEN years ago. The fact that he is even considered viable today is a sorry, sorry indictment on today's HW scene.

Stop being silly...

 

I Agree with you that Shannon had potential 10 years ago and it is kinda sad ::

and since you love the German love gods.. I'll at least say that one Brit I like is Haye, I think he is the future of the HW division. I hope so anyway.

it's all good that you are a German lover, I think it's some weird fetish but it's all good baby:bears:

 

Oh well, I tried to get a sensible response from you. I really did. You really are just quite, quite mad. :doh:

 

are you high right now? seriously.. ? I agreed with you baby.. but you seem like I attacked. I'm sayin.. can't we get a long? you seem so uptight lately! what's goin on with you baby? is everything ok in your life? can I help you with anything? we are all here for you Feebs, you came to fightbeat and it is like a family here, people take care of each other. if you are in distress and need help, call out to us baby!! we can help you with all your problems, calm your nerves and sooth out the pains of life that are burning in your soul.
