    Like Punisher said he did KO the White Wolf right out of the ring in the 12th. And like I said in my initial post, I only feel he would be dangerous to the Klits within the first 3-4 rounds. ANYBODY would have to be extremely cautious with Briggs for the first few rounds. Outside of that, his chances become much more slim.

    Funny how guys use Mercer to give credit to Briggs, but use the same guy to DIScredit Wlad:hey

    Yeah yeah yeah.... I Know... the "Mercer was past his prime with Wlad" BULL****

    The Mercer fight was after Klitschko had already stopped him and Lyakhovich was a never was. Briggs has no Chin, no stamina, asthma, throws literally 10 punches a round and stands in the middle of the ring like a mummy. The guy has not fought in almost 2 years and is lazy and out of shape.

    He is not going to beat anyone worth a crap in the Heavyweight Division.

    What these idiots don't understand is Wlad fought Mercer BEFORE Briggs did.

    I would say he is dangerous for 1 or 2 rounds max. Shannon Briggs is a horrible fighter.

    :deal

    that's all I was trying to say. ONE punch (esp. in the first few rounds) is all it would take for Briggs to beat almost anybody. Chances against Klit bros. of that happening.....prolly less than 10% though.....and after 4 rounds.... .005%.

    Thats fine, but weren't discussing Briggs lack of stamina and whatever else you said, were talking about Brigg's power. His one punch power is right up there with anyone the division, wether it be Peter, Wlad, or whoever else. I seen enough of Brigg's to know his power is not overrated and if Wlad was caught with a Briggs right hook early in the fight, he will have one of his famous panic attacks and meet the canvas once or twice.

    Not with those questionable whiskers. I would rank both Povetkin and Chagaev above him in this, not that I think they have much of a chance either.

    The Klitschkos are head and shoulders above ANYBODY out there now, in most cases, in more ways than one.

    bigger question is.... who cares about Sparing? Sparing doesnt mean anything with regards to a knock down

    Let me PM you the article I read about it a few years back, it was actually on ESB and another boxing site. Walker and another fighter put Vitali down in sparring, I cant remember which one dropped him and made him buckle his knee on the way down to the canvas, giving him no choice but to cancel his 4th scheduled fight against Rahman in late 05.

    All you got to do is is type into google, "What fighters knocked down Vitali in sparring?" You will see right away in your choices.
