Boxing Legend Shannon Briggs Considers Fighting Jake Paul

The outcome of Jake Paul and Mike Tyson's highly anticipated match has left boxing fans curious about what comes next. During a post-fight chat, Mike Tyson hinted that his next opponent might be decided by chance. Meanwhile, Jake Paul seems eager to step up his career by potentially facing champion boxer Canelo Alvarez, among other contenders. Shannon Briggs, a former heavyweight champ, recently shared his thoughts on a possible fight against Jake Paul. Briggs even mentioned Jake's older brother Logan Paul, a WWE star who returned to the ring last year to face Dillon Danis. It's been eight years since Briggs, who turns 53 next month, last fought. He also discussed a potential match with UFC legend Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson, but the idea didn't come to fruition due to several obstacles.

While driving, Briggs commented on the Tyson-Paul fight, wishing Tyson had been more aggressive. He also announced that he'll be fighting in March and is considering a few names for the match. When asked about the 'Rampage' Jackson fight, Briggs jokingly said Jackson seemed scared and is now facing someone else. He playfully suggested tying up his hands or fighting with one hand if he were to face one of the Paul brothers. A fun video surfaced before the Tyson-Paul fight, showing Shannon Briggs and fellow New York legend Mike Tyson playfully sparring in Brooklyn. This friendly exchange highlighted the mutual respect between these boxing greats. Fans now wonder if Jake Paul might consider a fight against Briggs, who is younger than Tyson and retired more recently.
