    Devastating right hand, good footwork, incredible hand speed, good defense, nice fundamentals.
    Looking forward to see him against Usyk (if he wins vs Perez) which I think he will.

    That channel also made KO collection videos of Parker, Thurman, Gervonta...It has many nice videos.

    Hes a very good fighter, will be hard to beat. He could lure uysk onto one of those shots. :eek:

    Nice thread. People are underrating Briedis, he has a legit shot at beating Usyk, and it's not just a puncher's chance.

    He's got skills, that's for sure, Charr KO is an absolute eye candy, but I doubt that he'll beat Usyk, Mairis just doesn't box like that. When the fight happens I'm still rooting for him tough :D The only Latvian who "made it" to the top.

    Briedis used to be a sparring partner for Wlad. When Chef posted here, he raved about him well before boxing fans knew who he was. The dude is the real deal. It's almost a shame it took so long for him to get his break, but he's making the most of it now.

    Yes. It's also a shame for him that he has to prove himself against Usyk. If Briedis loses that one people may never realize how good he actually was.

    In my view all of Usyk, Briedis and Gassiev have the potential to be a force at HW. If Usyk decisions Briedis and Gassiev both may well be able to have success at HW regardless.

    In a few weeks he's going to catch Perez cold and stop him early... This video will have to be updated!

    He probably will, he's already fought at HW, and if Usyk beats him there's not much left at cruiser

    Yes, Gassiev will fill out to be a good-sized heavy, probably something 6' 4" and 235 lb.

    He is solid but Perez is going to take him back to school..
