The official Wladimir Klitschko vs. Shannon Briggs saga: the "Cannon" laying siege

Pianeta is better than Leapai and Briggs.

 

Horrible fight for Wladimir.

Briggs makes Leapai and even Mormeck look like they were legit fights.

 

Based on what? His victories over a shot McCall and Botha?

 

Well that is highly disappointing.

 

He could do a lot worse. Pianeta went 6 rounds and Leapai 5 rounds so Briggs could do worse. Best case scenario he get's KO'ed quickly, worst case scenario he shows too much heart and gets beaten up over several rounds and very badly hurt.

Briggs retired for 3.5 years after Vitali beat him into a hospital bed and since then the best guy he's fought was Rapahel Zumbano Love who is ranked 72 in the world and he took him the distance. He's only fought one other guy inside the top 200 and he is ranked 192. Briggs now is shot to hell and not a top 50 fighter.

 

lets go ruin any chance you had of building a legacy champ

 

Leapai is probably the best out of the 3 since he scored a meaningful win vrs. Boystov and was a mandatory. Pianeta might be the better boxer but he hasn't proven it by defeating elite opposition.

 

Wlad just wants a easy payday waste of fans time

 

Based on the current ability. Pianeta is known to connect on high percentage and even against Wladimir he has shown some precision.

Leapai, on the other hand, didn't land a single punch and all of his attempts were awful wide shots that never even got close to Klitschko.

 

TSoprano. It's not 2006 anymore.

Wilder KO's three Briggs' at the same time in less than 2 rounds.

There isn't a known phrase to emphasize how far gone Briggs is at this point.

Of all the legendary huge upsets in HW title history, should Briggs defeat Wladimir, that would be the single greatest upset ever.

 

Every other year Wladimir has a big, relevant fight.

Everything in between is just padding the record. Many of his title defenses were against guys clearly outside the top 10 at Heavyweight and that is saying a ton...

 

wlad has a weak-middling defence every 2 years, and between them waters the title down to national level with his choice of opponent.

 

I thought Jennings was a legit opponent but this is disrespectful to the sport and the fans. I'm actually somewhat angry that Briggs gets a shot for clowning around, it's really quite unfair.

 

CHEF - Talk some sense into Wlad.
