I think he's a *****...and I KNOW he was as surprised as anybody in the room when he got the decision over Big George.
He fouht that entire fight scared to death!

He proved against Lennox that he has no shortage of heart. I don't think he'd beat most of the top guys but he could beat most guys from the bottom of the top 10 on down. With 4 belts out there, he'd even have a legit shot of winning a belt if he fought the right guy. I think he has a big fight left in him, he's really not that old by HW standards

He's a contender, given today's scene.

He is working his way up some serious contention so give the guy a break. The way I see it, he can give all the title holders a run for their money if he is given a chance.

The guy is a bum. Granted, many of the Heavyweights are bums... but these bums could kick that bums ass. Watching him against that 7foot tall dude on Tuesday night fights earlier this year blew all confidence I had in him.

briggs has been a trooper and has been slogging thru the muddy HW division without complaining. his fight with mercer and his 16 second KO IMO put him under the label of "Legitimate Contender".

LOL , OOPS I pushed pretender

HE IS A CONTENDER , and he will be champ 2006 !

Given his competition he could very easily win the title?
