    Briggs was 241 pounds when he lost to Sedrick Fields, 228 when he lost to Lennox Lewis, 225 when he lost to Darroll Wilson and 268 when he lost to Mccline. I do not see how his weight will be a factor IF!!!! he ever fights Wlad. His stamina at all weights has been an issue as was his ability to take punches.

      I think the Lewis fight shows he can take a punch, sure he went down 3 times but he was never seriously hurt, and Lewis is a great puncher.

        Had Klitschko taken those shots, he would have retired afterwards.

          I dont think this fight will happen, Wlad will end up fighting some other overhyped tomato can trasher

            oh please,,,,he was on his butt hard 3 times and stopped in 5 rounds. if thats indicative of a good chin then your on drugs. tommy morrison went 6 rounds with lewis and had one of the weaker chins. quit making excuses

              When the fight was stopped is was a slip, and lewis was seriously getting tired, he would have definetely made it out of the round.

                I don't think so. The punches that Wlad took from Sanders were alot harder than the one's Briggs took from Lewis. Sanders hit harder and faster than Lewis.

                  I don't think this is true at all. Lewis is one of the hardest punchers in heavyweight history, Sanders clearly isn't.

                  You are entitled to your opinion, which I respect, but I respectfully disagree completely.

                    I agree. sanders isnt half the overall fighter lewis is nor does he look like a physucal specimen but he is more dangerous in the first 2 rounds as his 18 1st round knockouts demonstrate. hes the only heavy to ever stop al cole and he did it in the first round. rahman couldnt even hurt cole.
