Actually that report is based on Briggs posting something on his facebook a few days ago, but Vitali then went on the record and said he was still talking with Valuev.

Both are poor opponents. Why not Solis?

It's not the ideal fight for Vitali. Haye would be better, but he's afraid of anybody named Klitschko. So it's the best choice, given the available options.

- Briggs is a two-time former world titleholder .

- He's a dangerous puncher with a very high KO ratio.

- He's big and strong.

- He's younger than Vitali.

You're not seriously saying Briggs is the best available opponent after Haye....

I'm looking forward to it. I couldn't get excited about the Sosnowski fight, but I'm somewhat excited about this one.
