this fight would be a disgrace. briggs is in no way deserving of a top 15 ranking and still should be under suspension for his positive test.
This should be a good fight if it's made. I think Vitali will knock him out in the later rounds, but maybe earlier depending on if Briggs gases out too soon. I don't see Briggs knocking Vitali down or out since nobody ever has. I just wish Wlad had an iron chin like his brother. At least after this fight Briggs will shut his trap about the K brothers.
with the top fighters not wanting to face him, who else should he fight then? Not saying I don't agree, but Vitali has to fight someone. Haye & Valuev wont fight Vitali! :huh
It'll be fun for the first three rounds, but Briggs moves with all the grace of a statue these days. He'll probably run out of puff for the exhaustion stoppage around the third quarter of the fight.
Really Vitali? You couldn't find anyone else besides Shannon Briggs? I'm pretty sure Tony Thompson would have wanted the payday.
Briggs could really surprise us. I've been too rough on him . He might make it into the second round. Well, if Vitali lets him.
I like that the Klit fights aren't way off in time. haye will probably fight Audley in march 2011 or something.
