    Briggs KO1

    Stop over-rating old-timers, Rocky was 185lbs, he could not in a million years bang with the big boys of today.

    It is true.
     
  3. The only people who believe Marciano would of won are racist as white people. 6'4 230 pounds vs 5'10 180 pounds yep. Marciano would of beat him like he beat all of other other 230 pound black fighters he faced. Wait he never faced any 200 plus pound black fighers period.

    Briggs in 1 brutal round.

    He knocked Joe Louis out of the ring if you remember? Granted Joe was old and shot, but this argument is silly anyways because Rocky would have been a CW today, but there is no doubt the guy had dynamite punches. If Briggs had the heart and discipline to train like Rocky, he may have been on top of the world instead of broke picking fights with Dan Raphael. Rocky never lost a fight, because he trained his ass off to go into deep waters, I imagine Briggs if he had that discipline could have been something really special, but its too late now, Vitali sent him into retirement to be sure.
     
  6. Joe Louis was 40 years old and wasnt black. Louis is biracial. Louis also didnt weigh 230 so try again.

    Marciano was slow a slow piece of **** and did you get hit by him? No so how do you know how hard he hit? He hit hard because he was white or because it took him 9 rounds to knoc out a 40 year old Archie Moore who was wacked out in 1 round in his prime by a 170 pound fighter?

    Marciano couldnt beat a washed up glass chin Roy Jones never mind a true heavyweight

    Briggs has more 1st round KO's than anyone in history, fast starter? I'd say yes.

    thank you, I was wondering if there was anyone who had more. Anyway the point being Briggs had a shitload of first round KO's, this is testiment that he is a fast starter.
