    Personally I'd rather see Briggs vs Klitschko. Both guys are pretty much equally irrelevant in the heavyweight scene. Except both would probably beat the **** outta Povetkin...go figure.

    I don't think that there's that much between them at this point. Shannon may be a lot older and has been exposed on more occasions, but let's face it, at least he's in somewhat respectable shape.. Peter couldn't show up for a big payday in good condition if he had a gun held to his head through out training camp.. He also recently failed in big fights with Vitali and chambers, and hasn't done much to redeem himself..

    We've already seen Peter get whupped by both Klitschko's. Been there done that.
    I vote Briggs

    Agreed,

    Even though I've been starting threads to joke about this fight, and feel that Briggs has next to zero chance, at least it would draw some brief attention due to the names involved. The whole unification thing has fallen through and the top contenders are backing out of the fights, so we might as well at least turn to the novelty factor..

    Hell yeah, Another thing is that for as big as Briggs is he has much much faster hands than Scam Peters. I like this fight.

    I would choose Solis or Adamek before Peter/Briggs.

    Obviously Haye and Povetkin are not considered because they are ***gots.

    I voted Briggs but he can be so boring...

    Maybe WLad-Peter will be more fun to watch.

    I can't believe Paul Briggs is getting another shot so soon after the Green fight-and at heavyweight!

    Briggs has much more Power than Peter and he's taller. (He's a better boxer too, but he doesn't really throw enough punches for that to be relevant)
    Anyhow, Briggs would have a much better chance of scoring the upset than the short crude clubber.

    Briggs is reportedly fighting Vitali, and Peter is fighting Wladimir. So...what's the point of this thread? What are you asking? Are you asking which brother has the more credible opponent?

    Wladimir has the more credible opponent in a rematch with Peter than Vitali has with Briggs.

    Peter would beat Briggs, and although he probably can't beat either Klitschko stands a much better chance at doing so than Briggs.
