Emanual Stewart is giving Briggs much respect.

I have been reading interviews that manny steward has been giveing. He gives nothing but respect to Briggs he hasn't even once said that Wlad is going to beat Briggs. All Manny says is that Briggs is the most dangerious HW out there. I have never heard a trainer comment on an opponent like Manny is. One of the main reasons is that it does not sound like lip service, I sounds like he knows that Wlad could very easily loose this fight if he does not bring his A game and even if Wlad does he is still introuble. Your thoughts comments on this.

i expect briggs to come out rushing like a mad bull... .. ...... and meet a perfectly timed straight right hand in the center of the ring, briggs is down and hes not going to get up !!!!! Briggs is knocked out by the first punch of the fight!!!!!

i expect briggs to come out rushing like a mad bull... briggs is notorious for fast starts and even faster slow downs, cause he gets tired so easy... especially if wlad can pop him one good time early... i'll say it again, briggs isnt deserving of a title shot(most arent these days)but he is dangerous... and for as often as wlad gets criticized for his weak chin, he is fighting some big hitters(peter, briggs, brewster, sanders)...

As much as i'd love to see Briggs KO Klit, i don't think he's got much chance. i dont even think briggs is going to be able to get past wlads jab. i expect wlad to just beat the living shit out of briggs with the jab as long as the fight goes on. i can see him landing 25 jabs in the first round and briggs going to his corner bleeding and swollen. briggs is just way too easy to hit, and wlads jab backs anyone and everyone up. briggs will never have the chance to get inside in this fight.

i think theyre trying to make briggs overconfident, nothing more. briggs loves to hear his own name and manny steward is no dumb ass. he may be hyping the fight up a little bit but its not all that necessary briggs is the opponent because of where the fight was predestined to be (New York City) if this date were set at the thomas and mack center they probably wouldnt be fighting. as a result of briggs bein the hometown boy, fighting at the garden, against a "russian" champ, i dont think they have a hard time selling tickets.

Briggs is of no more of a threat than say Derrick Jefferson was. Briggs will get crushed within six rounds. P.S. Steward has said what he's said in an effort to build Briggs up and help sell the fight.

He's saying this so Wlad gets credit for winning. In reality Briggs is no threat at all to Wlad.You have your opinion but I really think he is being honest here. He is right though Briggs is very dangerious early in a fight.
