Is this a joke Kev? Mayweather-Pacquiao is by far the biggest fight in boxing. It's the fight most fans would love to see. Briggs is a washed up fighter who Vitali already slaughtered years ago. Briggs does not deserve a fight with Wlad. Briggs wouldn't stand a chance in hell of beating Wlad. Only a fan who wanted to see a total mismatch and Briggs get another vicious beating would want this fight. Briggs would never land a punch but Briggs showed in his fight with Vitali that he can take a terrible beating and stay standing.
The Wlad-Briggs Youtube videos have gained a lot of attention. With Wilder vs Stiverne coming out with the preferred winner and Briggs antics on Wlad, HW division is getting some much needed attention. I think Wlad-Briggs rivals Mayweather-Pacquiao as far as attention goes.
If you disagree, name the next fight on the horizon after Mayweather vs Pacquiao, that brings worldwide attention to the sport? Canelo-Cotto is off so we cannot mention that.
Can anyone refute that Wladimir Klitschko vs Shannon Briggs is the second most popular fight that has been verbally agreed upon this year? Like I said, Canelo-Cotto is a fantasy fight so we cannot talk about that right now. If Khan fights Brook, that fight would be huge, Canelo-Cotto even bigger, but neither Khan or Cotto are trying to make that fight so we are stuck with Mayweather-Pacquiao, Wladimir-Briggs, Wilder-Fury(maybe).
