    Briggs is known for his formidable punching power and aggression, possessing an 78% knockout-to-win percentage with 37 knockout wins in the first round. It's a short night's work for Briggs!

    Change Wladimir Klitschko to Dullian Shyte and you have an excellent point

    Shannon Briggs has some sort of prime?

    What was that supposed to be?

    Klitschko usually defeated this type of fighters easily.

    And needed a robbery to beat an ancient, fat, semi-retired George Foreman.

    In all seriousness, there's a remote chance that prime Briggs could've pulled off a Corrie Sanders against a pre-reign Wladimir Klitschko.

    But seriously

    Prime Shannon Briggs got shut out by the far less heralded Klitschko era bum Jameel McCline. McCline also dropped prime Michael Grant with the first punch he landed, breaking Grant's ankle and winning the fight within the first minute. Let's not try to make Briggs isn't something he's not just because he buzzed Lewis and won the first two rounds.

    Wlad has been KO'd by inferior opposition than Shannon Briggs. Prime Wlad under steward easily beats the guy but the Wlad that lost to Purrity ? Oh yeah he could catch an upset and a left hook
