first time i saw fear in vitali's eyes t th end of round 1. Briggs got a small chance the first 4 round, with each round his chances will decrease. I know for sure vitali knows this perfectly and will jsut grind it out and start schooling him after 5 to win a late tko or 10-2 decision something like that.
I'd give Briggs a shot if it were W. that he was fighting, but not against V. V can take a punch and doesn't get scared when something lands on him.
vitali will beat him up for four rounds or less then take his heart, shannon wont hear the tenth rd bell ....6 round stoppage dudes take it to the bank
Briggs is the first HW that can hit that VITLAY has faced since Sanders. Sanders had VITLAY on ***** st and knocked him down in the first and VITLAY was prime then. VITLAY is looking old these days so don't be surprised if Sanders clean KO's the bum. If it goes past 3 rounds VITLAY has to be favoured though, with his pitty pat style.
What is all of this "one shot" wishfull thinking? Briggs sure as Hell is not going to hit Vitaly any harder than Sanders did. In addition the ease that Briggs gets hit with right hands is astounding. Not to mention his plodding footwork. Briggs will pay for real estate like anyone who fights the Klitschkos and eventually he will go broke.
That makes no sense whatsoever. Especially when you consider the losses the Klits both have. However I don't know what real estate has to do with glass jaws :huh
Briggs is explosive indeed..... -against tomato cans (since coming back)!! -against his sparring partners (also tomato cans)!!
Never guna say not a chance, not in this division but i cant see it, i dont care how good Briggs might look in training (which i dont think he does) but he wasnt sparring againt a world champion who aint guna let him do any of the things hes planning on doing. This is something i dont get with Klitchkos opponants, they train hard on what they want to do in the ring but when its fight time the Klitchkos just nulify everything they have. What they wana train on is how to fight the Klitchkos fight and think of things from there cuz ive not seen anybody force their game on a Klitchko for quite a while, and Briggs wont be able to either.
