Shannon Briggs trolls two of the UK’s more well known heavyweights in his latest social media photo shop work online.
American heavyweight Briggs finds himself out of the ring almost 18 months since last competing against Emilio Ezequiel Zarate in the UK back in May of 2016.
Since then various issues have ensued for ‘Lets Go Champ’ (as his popular catchphrase goes) – but now he is eyeing a return and one last run at a big fight or title shot.
He was due to challenge for the WBA ‘regular’ belt earlier this summer, but a failed drug test for elevated levels of testosterone put that off.
However his suspension since that failed test is actually due to end next month in mid November, and already he’s eyeing different UK heavyweights as possible opponents.
One such opponent is Tyson Fury. A man also looking to make a comeback to the ring soon after a long period away for the sport.
Briggs has had this colorful edit for him on Instagram today:
