Tobin's Fight Show

Tobin discusses the news of Jon Jones getting arrested for DWI this week. Jones is in a dangerous spot, because his fans/followers have got to the point where it is a shoulder shrug when he gets into trouble, which, that can lead to him doing it again or perhaps something worse. What seperates his issues from other troubled fighters is the fact that it hasn't effected his greatness in the ring. We are still awaiting the final location for UFC 249 Khabib vs Ferguson. Dana White said this week that he had something 99.9% locked down. For some reason betting sites had Florida as the favorite to host the event. That makes no sense. It seems more likely that it will be in Dubai. Plus Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder III in July has been postponed. When will boxing return, as the UFC continues to charge forth?

Tobin goes over the latest in the week of the UFC. Dana White announced the postponment of 3 cards after new regulations from the government. He maintains that UFC 249 Khabib vs Ferguson will go on, even if it is out of the country. What are the odds it actually happens and is it beneficial to have the fights or wait until fans can come and watch? Forbes boxing writer and host of The Fight Guys podcast, Peter Kahn joins the show. He discusses the effect COVID-19 is having on the sport of boxing. When will the sweet science return? He also provides insight on fighters stuck here from other countries who had their camps dirupted by the virus. Finally the show is joined by Shannon Briggs who discusses his latest fight return. The Champ goes into his venture into bare knuckle fighting and hopes that he can still get a bout with Wladimir Klitschko.

Former heavyweight champion Shannon "The Cannon" Briggs sits down with Tobin to discuss his new venture in bare knuckle fighting. The champ has been in talks with Bare Knuckle FC and will likely fight for them soon. He is also plotting another boxing comeback. He is back in the gym with longtime trainer Jessie Robinson. He talks about the benefits of his new training partners and working out with former Miami Heat #2 overall pick Michael Beasley. Briggs recalls his time working with Shaq in the boxing gym. Tobin asks Briggs what the big target is in his boxing return and he says it is to ruin Wladimir Klitschko's plans of becoming the oldest heavyweight champion of all time. Briggs also spends time reflecting on the life of his late boxing coach Jaamel Eaddy.
