I really like Sultan but if he fights like he did against that slug Ray Austin, Briggs will KO his ass.

Personal feelings aside, this should be an interesting war. We'll find out how good Ibragimov's chin is and hopefully, he'll do more to press Shannon's stamina than Liakhovich did. Maybe, just maybe, this will be a fight.

LOL......Austin is one of the worst fighters I have ever watched but somehow he gets draws and ****.

Austin would be a pick 'em fight with Briggs. I've said this over and over again. I really do think Briggs is the most overrated currently active boxer on this forum. I have no idea why he has so many fans. The biggest victory of his life, the win over Foreman, was a ****ing robbery. His career is a joke.

Rahman was a better and more deserving champion.

You guys think Austin sucks because you rate fighters on how athletic they look, and not the results they get. Boxing isn't about being the better athlete or the smoother boxer. Those things factor in, but ultimately it's about who can successfully impose their will on the other guy.

Ibrag wins....Briggs will simply run out of gas as usual...although Ibrag show a glass jaw against Austin..
