There is more to Shannon Briggs than a fighter.
It was rough growing up but it was best for me, it's what made Shannon Briggs, it's who I am.

After 14 years in boxing, the best decision I could have made was to take the last year off. My mind was not in boxing, but since I got here with Freddie, everything is working perfectly again.

In the 1930s, in boxing, to be the heavyweight champion of the world was really, really big, people wanted to see the toughest guys. But what I've figured out now, in the '50s, '60s, boxing started to become more entertainment than sport.

Boxing needs me.
