Let's be honest for a second...last night was a complete snooze fest and I'm sure
The U.S. Boxing fans are not looking forward to seeing wlad fight anytime soon :(
He needs to take the Briggs fight just for the p.r alone, I can't see the American public caring who wlad fights next unless it has a circus element to it!! And based on last nights performance the Briggs fight won't be as easy as some think,if the cannon lands it's all over for wlad, maybe he dam take on fury in london but I doubt he will because of the risk factor.
LETS GO CHAMP!!!!
It is an amusing feud Briggs has going, I wouldn't object to a fight although to make it semi legit Briggs needs to beat one okayish name, even if they dive ala Malik Scott.
Wlad is a good champion who fights deserving contenders. Briggs lost to Vitaii in one of the most one sided fights possible. That was years ago and Briggs has not fought a guy ranked in the top 50 since then. Briggs is unranked and doesn't deserve a title fight and Wlad won't disgrace himself by fighting Briggs. If Briggs wants a title fight let him earn one by beating one of the 10 best heavyweights in the world. Briggs is washed up and can't beat a top 10 heavyweight and he knows it. So he fights unranked easy to beat guys and then screams for a title fight. He is another Toney trying to loud talk his way to a title fight and a big payday he doesn't deserve.
Oh no my brother Briggs is ranked number 5 by the wba
Look http://www.wbanews.com/wba-ranking

LETS GO CHAMP!!!!No Briggs while he could get the casual fans to watch. This fight would get killed by ESPN, the boxing magazines, even HBO if they have any intellectual honesty. A three or 4 round beat down is not what boxing needs.
If Wilder were to take the fight that would be okay because he is an unproven champion and usually new champions are given slam dunks for their first defense.
Briggs needs at least 1 or 2 decent wins first.
Then why not?
As entertainment goes, it will be an event worth watching.
But maybe not for a competitive boxing match.
Briggs can't beat a decent fighter, his best tactic is the one he's trying. Show up wherever the champ is, talk big *****e in an effort to secure a big money fight you don't deserve and can't possibly win

TBH if it's not Wilder or Fury next, for the promotional value alone, Briggs is the only fight that makes sense and that's real sad.
Hey man it is what it is, if he fights Briggs the same way he fought last night he would be in trouble because Briggs would cause him trouble on the inside
