    Another great bashfest. I've got Tiger by UD. Anybody think he can pull out a rare KO?

    I don't think I would pick Tiger to KO Briscoe in this one. I do think he would have to be the favorite going in. I think Briscoe would make this a very close and entertaining scrap...one that he could concievably win, although that is not the pick I would make.

    Tiger takes a close UD, but I wouldn't be comfortable betting a whole lot on that. I would be cheering for briscoe, but believe he would come up just short...kinda like real life!

    Tiger takes a close decision..and it would be a real war. I'm surprised to say this is the first time I've ever even entertained the idea of this match. It would be all action all the way, but I'm sure that Tiger would have squeaked out a razor close decision.

    I think Tiger is the stronger physically and would be able to walk through Briscoe's best, putting him on the back foot in the process. To beat a Tiger, you would need alot of gears...reverse being one of them. Briscoe is damn tough, but he doesn't have those tools. Tiger unanimous decision.

    Possibly. Tiger has pulled off surprising KOs against other iron-chinned fighters (Jose Gonzalez, Rocky Rivero) and Briscoe was himself shockingly KO'd by Valdez once. Either way, Briscoe is basically tailor-made for Tiger and this should be a clear and decisive win for him, whether by UD or stoppage.
