    if he comes in over 220 lbs he's a total joke. I would think he'd have learned his lesson on coming in out of shape. if he's in shape he should be able to weather an early storm and take briggs out late

        Beating Mora in less than a round did not impress you? After this fight, the Briggs hype will finally die and Sultan will be recognized for what he truly is: a top five contender worthy of a belt.

          Briggs is hyped? He looked like total **** in his last outing, its just Sergey looked even worse.

            Thank You.... everybody seems to forget that the Liakhovich who fought Brewster was out of the Solar system the night he fought Briggs..

              Both fighters have not looked great, but at least we know how dangerous Briggs can be against a top fighter. That first round KO by Ibragimov looked impressive, but it was only against Mora. I still think Briggs is one of the most dangerous fighters out there in the division and that we should see Ibragimov's chin being tested. I just can't see how some people can be positive of a certain outcome in this fight as one fighter is unpredictable and the other largely untested. I'm leaning towards Briggs but no more than that.

                I wonder if Briggs will get sick again.

                  I like Briggs, but he is wasting his natural talent by not training hard. He reminds me so much of the heavyweight division of the 80's when Greg Page, Michael Dokes, Pinklon Thomas, Trevor Berbick, Gerrie Coetzee, etc would do enough to get TO the title then get lazy and let down once they HAD the title. And the title of Heavyweight Champion of the World became a hot potatoe.

                    I was refering to the Austin fight, Mora is a joke, waste of time. The Austin fight made me sick just when I was begining to like Sultan he messed up against a bum. Briggs can punch and is a danger to anybody in the division and trading with him is not what Sultan should do, you know hes going to do it but if he does hes going to go to sleep..

                      briggs looks dangerous against tomatoe cans but has still yet to be able to knock out an even semi durable heavyweight
