Sad state of Mairis Briedis

Ouch. Obviously he isnt embarrassed but I imagine his fans are... Whatever works. If he makes more money from it in the long run, then jokes on us.

 

KO'd Charr at HW and holds decision wins over Huck, Perez (down from HW), and then Dorticos in the tourney final. Also the controversial TKO3 over Glowacki where he dropped the belt to finish the tournament. Dont know why that rematch hasnt happened. He gave Usyk his toughest fight with more than just oddballs scoring it to him or a draw. That is his only defeat. He is 37 years old so not much time left. Dorticos win is huge for his legacy and proved he is definitely the #1 CW post-Usyk. But he is no Hall of Famer like many on here oddly try to paint him as.

 

Thanks for that. At 37 he's probably too long in the tooth to get to Paul

 

Considering Paul is a half decade of milking paychecks before cashing out, I would say so.

 

Paul would never fight him so why do this to yourself for a payday? He's not too bright.

 

He would still have been a cruiserweight fighting other Europeans.

 

Cannot be worse than Haney.

 

Haney in his short career when compared to briedis has probably made more money.

 

How much you get paid is in direct correlation with how big of a draw you are

The bigger your fan base, the more tickets you can sell, the more you get paid

By that metric, Briedis is a nobody compared to boxing’s biggest draws

Now, do I wish all boxers could be paid millions of dollars for risking their health? Yes.

But such is reality, and this is the way it is.

 

Sometimes things happen when you discover yourself. That's something I told my ex-wife when she found me with the the bucktoothed checkout lady from Aldi dressed up like a Mogwai.

 

What you are saying is obvious to everybody but you saying Briedes should get paid peanuts is beyond ridiculous

 

Cruiserweight is a joke since Usyk left.

 

I’m praying that’s a fake tattoo.

No one should have to live with a Jake Paul tattoo.

 

Poor rapper very good fighter.
