    Although i hate briggs' tactics of beating c and d level hw's and talking his way into fights, wlad has fought less deserving opponents that didn't have any belts so i tend to believe that wlad would have preferred to avoid briggs at any relevant time because of the whole risk/reward scenario written about by another poster. That kind of thinking is annoying to fans as well. I want to see the Klits have some decent challenges and besides Maybe Haye, tua, and povetking, briggs might have been one of the better challenges over the past few years cuz of his power, relatively quick hands, and size. so that fight would have been much more preferable than just about any of the klits opponents in the past few years
