Shannon Briggs Update

Former two-time heavyweight champion Shannon “The Cannon” Briggs (60-6-1, 53 KOs) was a recent honorary guest of MLB’s Miami Marlins. Briggs is a native of Brownsville, New York, but has lived in South Florida for the last 20 years. He has now thrown out the opening pitch for the Marlins in three different decades (2000s, 2010s, and 2020s).

Briggs, 51, also announced that a January boxing exhibition showdown between him and former UFC world champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is in the works – followed by MMA bout of the same. Briggs also stated the two are putting together a podcast prior to their proposed showdowns where both boxing and MMA will be discussed. He was brief on how he sees the result in both proposed bouts. “I am knocking him out twice,” declared Briggs.
