    It would be the greatest thing in a long long time if he was to KO Vitali in 1, and now that hes said it i can safely say that if i was a betting man id put no money on that prediction what so ever.

    The problem can be corrected very quickly, when the challenger is Robert Helenius:yep

    I think that grey hair certainly doesn't make him look very youthful. However, it adds a type of intimidating maturity IMO. Athleticism wise he looks more like 30 than close to 40.

    And who has Briggs beaten with this dangrous punch of his? I never understood why he enjoys such a big profile, because his resume screams gatekeeper.

    Briggs looks like the gorilla. Vitali looks good for his age.

    Briggs said that he needs only 30 sec to KO Vitali::):):)

    Also he said that after beating Vit he would like to fight Adamek in beautiful country of Poland where he used to fight in amateurs

    No doubt we can expect 3 entertaining rounds, but if one of them hasn`t been stopped after third, its gonna be a onesided beating! Briggs chances are not good.. But he got balls!

    I'm not sure we can interpret this challenge entirely as having balls. Basically, Briggs has nothing to lose here and in fact he is very lucky (not to mention undeserving) to get this title shot. I'm not at all surpised he took it and think 90% of fighters in his position, no matter how scared they would be, would take advantage of the oppurtunity.

    Briggs looks a bit grizzled. I don't think Vitali looks "old." He looks pretty damn good for a guy almost 40.

    He was just trying to play Davey.

    Solis is a donut-gobbling pig. 6'1" tall and 270 pounds????

    Put down the cheeseburgers Odlanier, and maybe someday you'll be ready for a fight with Vitali.
