Most sickening heavyweight fight ever..

[slimshandy69]

Not the most brutal in terms of knockout but the bravery of shannon combined by the poor refereeing imo made vitali verses briggs ones of the most disgraceful boxing matches ever..

Watch the hightlights below and tell me how and why round 6 and round 10 were not stoppages for fighters safty, i think this will ruin shannon future after that beating..

I totally agree, Shannon will physically suffer from this fight all his life. No way a human brain can take all these shot without consequences.

fair comment i do agree, but what i would say is that fighters spend thousand's on training, travel, coaching and accomodation so the referee has take that in mind...... but for this fight it should have been stopped due to the fact that briggs isnt exactly an up and comer.

^^^briggs is surely well off due to his past fights so money and travel etc should not come into this tbh mate..

[SN!PER]

Klitschko fights should probably be limited to 10 rounds to protect their victims from brain damage.
