Where U Drop Your Ear 2 The Street of Boxing

From The Desk of Shannon “The Cannon” Briggs…!!!


Season Beatings,

All I want for Christmas is any of the current belt holder’s two front teeth. So that’s six teeth that I’m looking to knock out.

So I jumped into my Shanta Claus uniform thanks to Andre Rozier ( Havoc boxing trunks a Havoc t-shirt and addidas boxing boots ) and broke the two left ribs of Marcus Mcgee last Thursday night December 3rd. It was not personal people. I had to. My two sons gotta eat. And if I don’t feed these over sized kids they might jump me. So I’m back at doing what I do best, my only talent,( sad face ) causing people pain in the ring. I will admit that it was fun. After two years of sitting on my couch eating Hagen Daz butter pecan ice cream and Pollo Tropical four times a day, I was forced by my trainer Herman Caicedo to get off my fat 334 pound ass and make some money. I’ve lost 80 pounds and I’m back at it like a crack addict. That rhymed. But my addiction is running 10 miles every other day at 4:30 am, coming home, showering, eating 12 egg whites, and oatmeal, and about 873 vitamins. I need to get into the vitamin hustle. Sheeeesh.

Things went well. My promoter Greg Cohen of Golden Empire, and boxing manager Ivalo Gotev put things in motion and it was a great night of fighting and fun. The after party was thrown by new consultant/adviser Marlon “Flip” Greer. It was off the hook!!!! His wife made the most delicious, banging, red velvet cake that read “The Champ is here!” OK, I ate most of it and I put a few pounds back on, but I’m already back in the gym.

My next date to entertain the world while fighting with my shirt off in front of complete strangers is January 8th at the Glendale Auditorium in Los Angeles California. The after party will be at the Playboy mansion. YES!!!!

Check out the video that my man Tony put together. It’s hot. It’s from my fight last week. The second link is from my homie Jeremey and his girl, they filmed another hot version. They did an outstanding job of filming my first fight in over two years.

    Comment by GeorgeF | January 4, 2010

  2. That is already cleared up by the commission. No suspension, but it did set the Jan 8th fight back to Feb.

  3. briggs tested positive for illegal substance. more proof he is done.

  4. Being “Team Briggs” doesn’t mean I am an employee of Shannon. It means I will support him through whatever he is is doing. That includes posting in the circuit forums and arguing with dumb asses like you. Have a holly jolly Christmas. George.

  5. if youre not briggs spokesperson then why you going around the boxer circuit as team briggs? i seen your name evrywhere in comments and hawking your poor vid.

    is anyone going to the jan 8 fight? id like to see briggs go down. he is too damn old and mma fighting?

    Comment by GeorgeF | December 23, 2009

  6. I hope Briggs sticks to boxing. MMA sucks.

    Comment by Jeric | December 22, 2009

  7. shannon’s footwork was slow and lazy. he is an old guy trying to make a few bucks at the only thing he knows how to do. i agree, the graphics in the beginning of the video are not up to standard but i would have liked to seen the fight ringside.

    Comment by Louis | December 21, 2009

  8. I’m not Shannon’s “spokes person” I am just a fan and a friend. I don’t know where you get that I have “Anger problems” but who the F**K are you. Oh I know, you must be Steven Spielberg, giving me advice on film editing. I filmed the fight ringside, and my assistant filmed from the front row. And if that’s all you have to contribute to this topic then you need to get a life. Briggs is FAR from “done” He’s just begun. Best of luck to you George, we outta hang out in a ring together one day.

  9. if you are the spokesperson for s briggs he is in trouble since you have anger problems. go back to school and learn how to edit professionally. briggs is done.

    Comment by GeorgeF | December 20, 2009

  10. The video was free for one because he is a friend, so there goes your wanna-be witty remark about him being low on cash. And if anything is like a “High School project” then just about everything you have posted here should be a fitting book report for your 9th grade final. Enjoy your juice box that your mother packed for you.

  11. not hating. the video is simple and choppy like a high school project. shannon is too old but since his cash is low he needs to do this.

    Comment by GeorgeF | December 19, 2009

  12. Gotta Love the haters. Without them your not doing anything.
    “SG”

    Comment by Jeremy Shirk | December 19, 2009

  13. the video is rudimentary and briggs needs to retire. nothing more pathetic than an old fighter trying to be a young fighter. not gonna work. he will humiliate himself. his own promoter is not supporting the change. should just give it up. find another way to make milk money.

    Comment by GeorgeF | December 19, 2009

  14. A whole other direction now…MMA?

  15. And that program comes STOCK with Windows. Nice try. Keep your poor little broken heart drama out of this topic.

    Comment by Jeremy Shirk | December 18, 2009

  16. Windows Movie Maker comes with Vista Crystal. It’s not hard to put clips together with that program.

  17. I heard that Wlad saw that footage and had an involuntary bowel movement. Vitali started dry heaving. And David Haye felt nauseous.

    Comment by Jack P. | December 14, 2009

  18. Briggs vs Arreola! Bombs away!

    Comment by john | December 10, 2009
