Oh Dear Lordy. Is Wilder Taking Briggs' Bait???

Took this from Fightnews.com:

Sources have confirmed that an official $2 million purse has been offered to WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder to defend against former two-time heavyweight champ Shannon Briggs. The proposed date would be Sept 5th at the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida. It will be an all-heavyweight fight card with a historic event taking place the very same night. More on this will be announced shortly.

Briggs and Wilder initially had words in New York prior to the Wladimir Klitschko-Bryant Jennings fight. Since then, they have taken it to Twitter exchanging pleasantries. The promoter of the event is willing to put the up the cash to make the fight happen.

They can't surely be serious about this? The build up would be entertaining, if nothing else!

No doubt truss will try and justify it

And Scott Gilford will too

If true then Wilder will be fighting it out with Haye for worst 2 title defences once champion!

LETS GO CHAMP!!!
