  • Briggs was old when he fought Vitali.

    Comment


    • The Ref in the Briggs fight was a disgrace though. Briggs was a very game contender but only for the first 5 rounds, he threw everything at Lewis, but it still wasn't enough. Like I said, entertaining fight.

            Briggs is the same age as Vitali, I believe Vitali is actually some months older than Briggs.

            • He can't get over it when his only hope in the HW division lyes in the hands of David Haye, I guess I can't blame him.
              Everyone in the HW division is a bum now by LacedUps standards this is so the past generation looks better in his eyes.

                And so what if WK took longer for any opponent, we can agree that Lewis is a faster finisher.

                The point is you overrate some of Lennox's opponents.

                You can only highlight WK's worst opponents who have never been beaten besides WK or Mormeck, a champion CW. **** me, Wlad even claimed Mormeck was better than Tyson! Now I am not claiming anything like that am I.
                Lol at more experienced and heavier against Vitali That's so dumb it's untrue. Why not just say he was a shyt defense? You can't get yourself to say it can you? Yeah, I suppose he was better after not fighting consistently for years and having been knocked out multiple times.

                No, you overrate WKs opponents. Insanely much. I can appreciate there's a few duds on Lennox's resume. Absolutely. But he has no one as bad as Pianeta or Mormeck (in that state) or Leapai or Wach for that matter - after he entered championship level.

                But I don't blame Wlad, per se, because there aren't many good fighters out there that he hasn't fought. But there are still a few left.

                  I think there are some good fighters in the division today like Fury, Chisora, Haye, Pulev, Povetkin, Wilder, Arreola (when he's on game), Stiverne etc.

                  Do I think any of them will beat Wlad? Probably not - but I'd like him to fight some of the guys he hasn't fought.

                  Once again, and I'll make this really clear one more time, I think Wlad is an excellent fighter. He doesn't use his talent in my opinion as he could be a destructive force, but he's a really good fighter who'd be a top contender or champion in any era.

                  Do I think he fights duds? Absolutely. Why deny it? I mean, who would you rather see him fight - Wilder or Leapai? Fury or Pianeta? Stiverne or Wach? Chisora or Thompson?

                  It explains itself really.

                    And where was Vitali when Briggs was heavyweight champion in 1997?

                      However If there wasn't a Klitschko in the division you'd be saying this is one of the most competitive divisions we have.
