Shannon Briggs Expresses Desire to Fight Deontay Wilder

Former heavyweight champion Shannon Briggs has expressed his interest in facing Deontay Wilder and has a specific location in mind for the bout.

"Wilder needs to regain positivity and confidence. I want to fight him. I think it would be a great match in Alabama—our comeback. Actually, I haven't retired; they've just been avoiding me. I plan to fight in March, and if he wants to, we can make it happen," Briggs stated.

Shannon, now 52, hasn't stepped into the ring since 2016.
