    that's about all we can say about it. There are better opponents for Wladimir than Shannon Briggs. Who's next - Oliver McCall? David Tua? Axel Schulz is coming back isn't he? Good god...

    Yeah Briggs has power, but his mechanics are just goofy and awkward...he will lose horribly if this fight ever takes place

      The terms of the deal are confirmed, only the venue and signatures need to be completed.

        Well, hopefully it is happening.
        Wlad needs to fight big powerful guys to clear his record.

          Sorry for the spelling error, I meant Williamson.

          Briggs definitely has a very good chance because he has enough power in both hands to knock Klitschko down and out. Not sure whether he would land the clean power punch he needed but that fight spells EXCITEMENT: better than the Peter fight because Shannon is way taller so Wladimir won't be able to hold that much.

            Toney is fighting Peter!

            Now that's another fight I want to see!

              Lol Toney is fighting Klitschko's leftovers


              Wlad wins Klitschko vs McCline II and quite easily

                  This is a fight to be excited about, if you are a Wlad fan. Wladimir will crush Briggs with his combonations and swell his face up with stiff jabs. Briggs will definitely not see the final bell. Briggs is big, and that's all.
                  I agree that Wlad's a far superior fighter, but Briggs has some power, and there's always that decent chance that Briggs could catch him, which would spell disaster for Wlad. I would love to see Briggs KO him, and with Wlad, it's always a possibility. Briggs is nowhere near the defensive fighter that Byrd is, but he packs a much more powerful punch. I wouldn't totally write off Briggs pulling the upset...

                    I agree with that, but boards like this wouldn't exist without speculation. A big portion of this sport is based on speculation. You can only talk about fights that are signed or completed so much... Unfortunately, we (the fans) don't get to put the fights together, so forums like these allow us to at least dream of them.
