    Shan Biggs sucks.

    ....now Shannon Briggs on the other hand?! Actually, no. Briggs' inactivity has earned him nothing. Anyways, Vitali wouldn't fear his power, and Briggs would get beat up in a pretty uninteresting affair.

    It could be a money fight for Vitali!

    Why? Briggs is not a big draw anymore.

    O.K., but perhaps you guys in the USA would like to see such a fight. There are not many US HW´s left anymore.

    He last fought back in 07', it will be nice if he fought some of the TOP 10 fighters. What about Povetkin, Chambers and Arreola?

    No he shouldnt. Whats he done to deserve a title shot? Haye was at least a cruiser champ that moved up. Shannon hasnt done anything since he got lucky vs liakhovich

    Briggs is simply not a worthy opponent. It doesn't matter where he is from. Arreola is really the only US heavy that would generate any interest at the moment.

    Actually, I have nothing against a fight Briggs - Klitschko. Entertaining, as long as it lasts. Probably more than a fight with Arreola.

    He shouldn't unless he earns it.

    I'd like to see another HW tournament like we got a few years back with Byrd, Brock, Chambers and Povs. Except with a bunch of also rans in it.

    You could have Briggs, Rahman, Kali Meehan and Odliander Solis fight. Hell add in Sam Peter and James Toney. I imagine that's what Showtime's Super Six Tournament looks like in hell.

    Than Vitali should better fight Chambers. He deserved a shot by winning against Dimitrenko.

    Not really. Arreola at least moves forward and throws punches. Briggs would just be a stationary target for Vitali.
