    Should Wladimir Klitschko fight Shannon Briggs?

    I think not. Briggs should need to fight and beat a top 25 HW first.

    What do you think?

    I think he sould but shouldn't.Depends on how you look at it.

    The spiteful way thing to do would be not to give him a paycheck.But i think Klitschko-Briggs would good numbers.Briggs is practically selling it now,a lot of people would buy this fight.

    But Klitschko has his hands full with Fury.When Fury knocks him out he can fight "Let's go champ" in his first defence in 2017,after Fury's huge binge lolol.

      I think Klitschko would bring ridicule upon himself if he fought old Briggs.

        Not without a rigorous testing schedule.

          Briggs should fight Joshua, H Fury, or Parker.

          Or perhaps Jennings, Takam, Teper, or Pulev.

          If he beats one of those, he'll prove himself worthy of a title shot.

              I voted Briggs must beat a live opponent first and to me that means one of the 10 best heavyweights in the world. Otherwise do not let this free loading fake get a title shot be beating guys ranked from 200th to 400th in the world. Let him fight the other washed up fake contender, James Toney.

                so pointless

                wlad would have to visibly hold back and play around for it to last 1 round

                leapai would steamroll current briggs

                only way i can see it happening: wlad pulls off the fury win but doesnt feel young anymore doing it, decides to retire and takes one last easy farewell fight - briggs is about berto level so lets say it's equivalent to that situation
