    Paul doesn't listen come fight time , just watch the replay of Briggs v Adamek 2 the english version the below link is the Euro version, Briggs hurts him and does **** all but follow him around and not throw a punch most of the time, Jlewis in between rounds virtually screaming at Paul to let his hands go you can knock him out, Briggs goes back and and proceeds to do the same throw a one or 2 punch combo again, and this is a prime briggs.

    Not sure where all this prime briggs would destroy Green comes from Briggs prime past etc doesn't use much foot work and stands in front with not much head movement other than glove defense and ducking his head which would and will suit Greens uppercuts , Green has a killer instinct against who ever he is in with, Briggs has proved he doesn't as soon as some one hits back , look at the Jesus Ruiz fight same thing hits him with a good shot and does **** all after it.

    I have found paul to be frustrating to watch when he stepped up his hand speed and power would of been a thing of beauty if he let his hands go in combos and go fo r the kill, hearing him the other night talk about Geale not upping the pace when he lands on someone, i thought your kidding look at ur fight against Adamek you had him hurt but actually went back down a gear and let him recover, Briggs doesn't even use movement to get out of the way of punches and is wide open to upper cuts which Green delivers lethal ones.

    the whole fight is below as i said Briggs is frustrating the rare occassion he throws moew than a 1 or 2 punch combo he looks brilliant, fact is he wasn't a high volume combo fighter and thats a prime Briggs, as much as circus act as Green is i think he would bash a prime Briggs let alone **** knows what he is gonna do to the current pay day seeking one.

    Anyone is free to add how they think danny can't land flush at will with Briggs defence method, and yes he will land on Green now and again but he simply doesn't let them go enough to finish it off where as when Green stuns him he will follow it up with non stop power punches.

    I always admired Pauls will but his execution and killer instint leave a lot to be desired.

    Seen both fights heaps, thought Briggsy lost both narrowly. Was a bit too reactive at times and slightly out boxed but please remember Adamek would beat ten shades of **** out of Green, then and now.

    How, Greens footwork as robotic as he is it's loads better than Briggs, he does skip back a bit to get out of range, Paul just stands right in punching range and make no attempt to avoid bein hit....the thread is more what does briggs do to beat green, Adamek is a beast but the LHW of Adamversion green would of followed up and not stand back and get hit 10 times before deciding to throw a punch back.

    To the op, Paul explains all about the second Adamek fight in his auto-biog. Well worth a read if you havn't had the pleasure.

    But he did the just about the same in the first Adamek fight actually his jab in the first Adamek fight was good he doubbled it up, under lewis it didnt really exist similar to the way Kostya was under JL ...and against Jesus ruiz he just doesnt go for it.

    Geale fighting Kariuz and Briggs fighting Adamek is hardly the same thing mate.

    Sometimes fighting a world class opponent isn't always as easy to let your hands go and put them away as u say.

    agree 100 percent. Adamek would eat Green alive, where as Paul nearly got the nod. if Paul fought Danny in his prime he would murder him... i still think he is a chance even after the layoff. i guess we will find out soon enough...

    How would he murder him is the question. its ok to have an opinion, he didnt murder Jesus Ruiz , so like i said Pauls lack of Defence is tailor made for greens style to land at will

    hardly in the same class......but leonard-hagler comes to mind.

    leonard injured, was 3 years retired. no warm up, and had commentated at haglers fights for 3 years...


    briggs was injured, was 3 years retired, no warm up, and has commentated at greens fights for 3 years...





    and just for you deepak chopra people....

    paul brigs (PB or BP...REMEMBER BP) IS BLEEDING OIL INTO THE green gulf IN THE usa.. REMEMBER THIS SALLYWINDER PREDICTION...?
    WARNING....IT MIGHT BE A BIT 'OUT THERE' FOR MOST OF YOU ****S, BUT 'COINCIDENCES ARE NO COINCIDENCE. DONT KNOW WHAT I MEAN? THEN YOU BETTER READ SOME STUFF. TRY 'THE SECRET'. I HAVENT READ IT, BUT APARENTLY IT DEALS WITH THAT SORT OF FACT. sorry about the caps lock.......

    Green's movement is very minimal especially against his best opposition being Beyer and Mundine (havent seen the Lucas fight), not much head movement and not very evasive. Briggs shows a fluidness, more natural movement not great but better. Adamek beats Green in almost all departments with possibly power slightly favouring Green.

    Not sure Briggs was to worries about Adameks jab which was what hit him the most, I got the feeling Briggsy was happy to take them as it opened up the counter etc.

    Briggs shows fluidness with hand speed but my point is he doessn't use it to put combos together, have you seen him V Jesus Ruiz he does the same thing seems cautious, he is very flat footed the green of the last couple of years uses his feet a bit and moves lateral a bit, i knwo Green was schooled by Mundine but rewatch the fight closely a lot of Mundines punches were taken on the gloves of Green.

    Don't get me wrong i am a huge fan of Pauls but he reminds me of Nedal Hussein when they step up they don't let it all hang out in the spot light.

    Paul makes a great commentator if only he followed his own comments about other fighters as in shifting up gears.

    Not sure about the win now but one things for sure Briggsy wont lose through lack of heart.
