Was Shannon Briggs robbed against Vitali?

    Just rewatched the Vitali Klitschko vs Shannon Briggs fight.

    In my opinion, Shannon Briggs did hurt Vitali much more in the opening rounds with decent body shots. Vitali threw some slaps, landed more of the slaps, but was unable to hurt Briggs at any point. The Cannon knew after 8 rounds he was heading towards an unanimous decision and he started to bully Vitali Klitschko by letting his hands down and not using any defense.

    Vitali dominated the last four rounds, but he was not able to hurt Shannon Briggs at any point so I scored the bout 116-112 in favour of the Cannon, but unfortunately he was robbed by the corrupt judges in Germany.

    How did you score that fight? Was Briggs robbed?

    going by this logic, Adamek was doing well against Vitali until the ref stopped it

    Robbed of permanent brain damage maybe. But even I am not sure of that given his antics lately.

    Yes if you count Briggs getting smacked around for 12 rounds and ending up in the hospital a robbery.

    Robbed of years of life... Vitali took something from him.
    Google that image of Briggs looking like a corpse after the fight.

    The despicable referee Ian John-Lewis should have been banned for life from boxing for not stopping that fight.

    Sustained beatings like that one sometimes result in death or permanent brain damage.

    It was bizarre how it wasn't stopped, same thing with Wach and Wladimir.
