What Should Have Been: Top 5 Mayhem Undercard Fights

The official announcement naming all of the Mayhem undercard fights was made yesterday, and most fight fans weren’t pleased to say the least. Read Gabriel Polanco’s take on the five fights that should have been considered instead.

Chris Arreola vs. Shannon Briggs

Yes, please God, YES! Just imagine the press conference and weigh ins. Shannon Briggs doing his worst impression of Clubber Lang and the crowd checking to see if Chris Arreola might actually punch him in the face.

Even after losing by KO to Bermaine Stiverne, Arreola still knocks Briggs into retirement, but boy wouldn’t that be awesome to see? In all seriousness here, let’s tell it like it is, this totally a mismatch, but an entertaining mismatch.

It’s like a movie, one where you know the ending, but your just watching to enjoy the ride. Briggs should not be in a boxing ring at this point in his career, but his loudmouth and foolish antics have put him on front pages of boxing blogs and Instagram posts. Whether he just needs the money or is just utterly crazy, he should not, I repeat he should not EVER get a shot at Wladimir Klitschko.

For goodness sake, for his health and the small amount of respect the Heavyweight titles still have, do not let him get a shot. So seeing Arreola, a fellow Vitali Klitschko victim, beating the crap out of this has been would be very entertaining.
