    Sanders- started well, had Vitali in trouble in round 1, but then got his face beat to ****
    Briggs- took a serious beating for 12 rounds, but was fighting with an injured bicep since round 1
    Sosnowski- props to him for even making it to the 10th
    Adamek- he knew there was next to no chance he would win, but went in to go down like a man anyway

    If it was a 15 rounder briggs might have died

    Williams is a good choice. The gutsy performance by Sosnowski stands out, as he tried his best to win with offense. Briggs took a real beating, and the toll he paid to go the distance was a broken face and a torn muscle.

    Christ i know people like to say Vitali does not hit as hard as his little brother but those were not soft arm punches.
    He put some power into those, + he throws a lot more than Wlad at a very high connect rate.

    I remember just yelling at the tv for the last 3 rounds to for the love of god stop the fight.
    This all just made worse by Briggs management cheating him out of his 750k purse.

    Vitali is a mean person, you saw pac in a similair position vs margarito and he eased off even looking at the ref to stop it and arguably carry margarito to the finish.
    Meanwhile Vitali began throwing more and landing more and really trying to get briggs out of there not caring about the man.
    He was very frustrated that he couldnt stop him.
    Yet when its too early like with solis or adamek in round 2 he is pissed of as well because he wants to punish them longer.
    Now that his power has decreased and his volume gone up he punsihes his opponents more before stopping them late.
    It will probably happen vs chisora as well.

    Briggs and Williams deserve honourable mentions

    no idea what kept Briggs up.....his corner guys should be kicked in the balls for letting him come out in the 10,11, or 12 round.... thats how guys die in the ring...sustained steady beating over 12 rounds ...

    Definitely they should have stopped it in 10, its the same bull**** ref by the way that missed 2 kd's in bhop vs pascal 2.
    Briggs took a terrible beating and really earned his money yet they stole it from him.
    Very sad:-(
