Apparently gatecrashed a Klitschko press conferance topless and tried to get at Klitschko until security got rid of him. Roid rage?

Yeah, saw this earlier and was wondering how long it'd be before Briggs pulled another caper like this.

Tragic thing is, this sort of stuff appeals to some folk. God only knows why, but it does. So much so that there's a danger some boxing fans will actually start talking up a Wladimir-Briggs fight because of it, citing the fact that Briggs has called him out and the "bad blood" as reasons for the fight to happen lest Wlad gets accused of ducking the challenge.

Pretty sure the classy, in-the-know lot we have on here wouldn't have any interest in seeing Shannon beaten in to a coma by a Klitschko for a second time, mind you, but in a world where Twitter trends and any kind of self-publicity are held in such high esteem, you never know!

I doubt he will get a fight with Klitschko out of his half naked antics. But maybe a decent offer off someone else. Somewhere in a gym far away David Hayes sensor goes off.

He should also have done enough to secure a visit from the drug testers if they have any sense.

I don't mind a small degree of theatrics or bad blood if the fight is credible. This isn't. Therefore, it's just embarrassing.

Agree with this post. It definitely worked for Haye v Chisora.

That just about sums up the Klitscko era. At a press conference ahead of a bout with Alex Leapai, Klitschko is harangued by Shannon Briggs.

The man is seriously strung out on something or Vitali did a real number on him. He seems to think boxing owes him something but he had his time.

Wladimir wont be angry by this episode because its will most prob be the only thing fans remember about this poor H/W title contest............if you can call it that.

Briggs is desperate and obviously been juicing to the gills whilst inactive and not being tested.

Briggs was one of the most undeserving HW title challengers ever when he fought Vitali. He was battered pillar to post and done nothing since and somehow thinks acting a fool will get him another shot.

I heard him on Bunce's podcast a few weeks back and he was talking a load of rubbish about his dream to be the biggest promoter in the world! The annoying thing is that Bunce just laps it up and agrees with his guests no matter what garbage they say.

In fairness If this guy is trying to assault Wlad one minute and then turning up naked at a press conference naked the next.......In between going life and death with the unstoppable Jason statham in Transporter 3...

Is Bunce really going to start laughing at him and making fun of him on his podcast !!

Got no sympathy for you. Had my four year anniversary last week. Still, I got to tell my wife's least favourite joke "I remember my Wedding day like it was yesterday...and we all know what a bloody horrible day it was yesterday!"

Anyway, our son was due to be born last week but he clearly has my attitude towards timekeeping and will seemingly turn up when he's good and ready!

Already got my daughter telling everyone her favourite band is SLAYER ...mainly to counter my wife getting her to tell people her favourite football team is Man Utd.

The two little lads next door have stopped wearing their Man Utd kits and become Bradford City fans in recent months....this after cheekily telling me that Liverpool suck. Can't kick 'em though, their dad's a big unit and their mum is a total MILF...don't wanna spoil my chances.

Well I suppose the duct tape and handcuffs does improve the chances Dave. Or at least a handy back up if your charm and good looks somehow fail

Unlikely but anything's possible I suppose.

He looked in great shape against Vitali a couple of years back. This isn't a "new" look for him. The shaved head is but not the physique.

Dunno if you saw the weigh-in pics of him vs Vitali but if memory served he looked in frighteningly good shape then.

Sadly, his recent antics will have put him right at the top of the "Who do we drug test now?" list

Several references to his physique and change of look Dave? Are these drawn from memory at the time, or from your private collection. That milf you referred to earlier? You sure its not a dilf?

Yes Hammersmith, it's hard to believe it's 17 years since he beat Foreman in Big George's final fight.He's clutching at straws now though to imgine that he is still a contender to take Wlad's title.

Yer it was bad, I watched it a copule of years ago. It should have been a clear UD for Foreman. But he wasn't too bothered in the interviews after the fight.

Briggs looks in decent shape. Tell him to show up on Saturday and, after Wlad's dispensed with Leapai, if Wlad can be bothered, throw Briggs in there straight afterwards and Klitschko can kayo him as well.

I might even watch it then.

He had a pie with him and got stopped at security before getting in.

The pie was probably ordered by Klitschkos opponent.

I doubt Klitschko minds all this really. Its giving cheap publicity to an otherwise pointless fight. Maybe Briggs has been hired.
