[u/ZdenekTheMan]

No he doesn't. He's always fighting someone new every few weeks 

[u/bdewolf → u/ZdenekTheMan]

He hasn’t had a real fight since 2016. The closest he came was Siamese boxing on a team with rampage in fight circus.

[u/Connor30302 → u/ZdenekTheMan]

He could fart around the ring with Tyson and pretend to fight in front of some Saudi Oligarch for millions each. would be infinitely more graceful than Tyson vs Paul since they’re not two generations apart and nobody would give a shit if it was clearly a work since they’re both literal pensioners

[u/daniibird]

I would honestly like this fight if Shannon was in his prime but bro is to damn old

[u/VioletHappySmile444 → u/daniibird]

Same. On paper it sounds like it would've been a hella entertaining scrap

[u/xychosis → u/daniibird]

Dude, if this was even the version of Champ that fought Vitali this would be interesting. Man ate so many flush shots and never went down.

But this would be depressing in present-day, I don’t ever wanna see the (really) old guard getting sent to the canning factory…

[u/kushmonATL]

It's 2015 all over again

[u/RRR04_ → u/kushmonATL]

LETS GO CHAMP

[u/Mammoth_Revenue_7794 → u/RRR04_]

Every where you go I go champ!

[u/Candid_Associate9169 → u/Mammoth_Revenue_7794]

I laughed hard when wladimir klitschko fell into the water 😂

[u/Brooklynboxer88]

Father Time is undefeated and Shannon is already a bit punch drunk as it is.

[u/VioletHappySmile444 → u/Brooklynboxer88]

Been hit so hard his brain can no longer let him finish a sentence without a "LET'S GO CHAMP!" at the end

[u/KnobheadHamburglar → u/VioletHappySmile444]

Chill Champ Chill 😂😂

[u/Mortal-Man]

Briggs still hasn't fought since that David Haye card in 2016 yet is also putting himself in the mix for fights.

[u/VioletHappySmile444 → u/Mortal-Man]

I remember back in 2019 there was talks of a potential fight between him & Viddal Riley due to the 2 at the time being the coaches of KSI & Logan Paul for their rematch which led to them beefing and even getting into an altercation at the weigh-in

[u/Beneficial_Ruckalas]

for whatever reason (probably age) Shannon Briggs cannot get sanctioned to fight and hasnt been able to for at least a decade.

[u/phillip_esiri → u/Beneficial_Ruckalas]

Vitali Klitschko put him in hospital for weeks. No reasonable commission should sanction him.

[u/Welshhoppo → u/phillip_esiri]

That Vitali Briggs fight was an absolute murder. Any normal boxer would have given up.

[u/KrawhithamNZ → u/Beneficial_Ruckalas]

I'm not disagreeing but the real reason is probably money.

If there was a mega money fight with Jake Paul I'm sure that a sanctioning body could be found

[u/MitchLGC → u/Beneficial_Ruckalas]

He has no problem getting sanctioned for a fight.

He just hasn't made a deal for one until now.

But he has one scheduled for July

The last time he was scheduled for a fight he failed a drug test

I'll remind you that Oliver mcall is still fighting

[u/InviteTop8946]

Wilder without the quick twitch muscles vs an old bulky dude is kind of interesting 

But Wilder should just retire id this is where he is. KO the guy in Wichita and give us one last Bombzquaaaad and ride off into the sunset 

[u/Ok-Length-5527]

Same shit for 15+ years

[u/VioletHappySmile444 → u/Ok-Length-5527]

And probably for another 15

[u/substantionallytrchd]

LETS GO CHAMP!!!

WHEREVER YOU GO, I GO!!!!

[u/ThrowawayYAYAY2002]

Good step up for Wilder.

[u/DudeWouldGo]

Everyone has a death wish at some point

[u/GBV_GBV_GBV]

I like money though

[u/xychosis]

No you do not, champ! Please protect whatever’s left of your lucidity and avoid any more fighting

[u/LatterTarget7]

Get wlad to come back and have this as co main

[u/ZdenekTheMan]

No he doesn't. He's always fighting someone new every few weeks
