Comments Thread For: Photos: Vitali Klitschko Punishes Shannon Briggs To Win

[Guest]

Wow, why could'nt Vitali ko this hasbeen? Glad I turned it off after the 3rd round, The heavies are garbage!!!!!!!!!

Briggs has never been ko'ed in 58 fights. He's been tko'ed twice and has never lost off of his feet.
Most ref would've called the fight somewhere between the 8th and 12th rounds because it was a complete shellacking.


Vit should've gotten the tko especially in the last three rounds.

Briggs doesn't have a glass chin.

Briggs got tired after 5/6 rounds, thats when vitali really start throwing his right hand

Well there must be a good reason the german ref didn't stop it, you know how they are over seas. If I get bored I'll watch it later, I'm buying the Hernandez vs Vasquez PPV, at lest I'll see some action tonight.

You know, it was pretty one sided. I mean it wouldn't be first on my list of fights to watch for two way action, that's for sure.

I think WV2 should win tonight if has kept his form.
It's a good test for him.

Enjoy the fights, bro.

Sorry but even though it was target practice for Vitali. With Vitali's punching power and Briggs' glass chin he should've gotten at least a TKO. Someone like Shannon shouldn't have gone the distance.

Briggs has only been stopped twice, one of those by an ATG, has never been counted out, and went the distance with, and beat, Foreman. How does that equate to a glass chin?

Vitali has never had one-punch power (unlike his brother). He gets his stoppages by attrition, but Briggs was determined to stay on his feet, was in his best shape for years, and put up a better show than most of Vitali's recent opponents. Nevertheless, he was beaten up.

Respect for shannon briggs. put all his heart in that fight. vitali landed bombs but, damn i dunno how briggs took all those shots. pure toughness and heart unlike some fool!

[truefightking]

briggs won the fight if the point was to get the **** punched out of ya lol!human punchin bag!

[Tiozzo]

sorry but that was really disappointing...i was expecting briggs to go for it in the first few rounds...but he literally threw nothing...

If i was david haye i would be rubbing my hands together thinking vitali is there for the taking!

exactly

Briggs came out very cautious, I thought he would at least try to be aggressive for the first 30 seconds, but he didn't, big diappointment

You're not much of a boxing fan if you turned off a heavyweight championship fight after 3 rounds. More of a sensationalist, I'd say.

Who was the ATG< I don't recall any, although I should> I just can't bring up Bozrex right now. Not unless I reboot,
