i agree with steward, in that briggs is much more dangerous than oleg, SL, rahman or toney... that being said, he is underserving of a title shot...

It depends which Wlad Klitschko turns up. If the one who turned up against Sanders, Brewster or even Peter turns up Briggs has the abilty to destroy Wlad. However, if a fighter is only as good as his last fight then Wlad's peformance against Chris Byrd suggests that Emanuel Steward has taught him enough to beat Briggs.
A close fight and one that I hope happens.Comment

It's hard to gauge this fight...Briggs can hit, but he hasn't fought a top level fighter in so long, who knows how he'll react to getting hit. When I first heard that this fight was a possibility, I thought what Manny is saying, "that's pretty dangerous for Wlad".
However, can't you draw alot of comparisons between this fight and Lewis-Tua? I know there are other factors that differentiate this fight from that one, like how Briggs is much taller than Tua and Wladdy is no Lennox, but it's somewhat similar and that's how I expect this fight to play out. Wlad will box his ears off while playing it very safe and eventually wear him down with right hands and end this thing late.
Wlad TKO10 Briggs, Briggs goes down 2-3 times and shows some heart before the ref stops it.Comment

Bunch of u guys on here are so full of crap, Mannys fighter Lennox Lewis faught Briggs and he was in the corner when Briggs was pounding Lewis around the ring for the first 2-3 rounds, Lewis was hurt so bad that he was staggering all over the ring. Obviously the dudes on here that say that this is overhyping the fight have naver seen the Briggs-Lewis fight and dont know what the hell they are talking about. Watch the fight and then talk...Comment

You watch. Briggs is gonna' get shafted out of this fight and therefore prove that Wlad is fly by night champ just like his brother. He will take the easier fight and puss out on Briggs. Or he'll do just what Vitali did and sign with Briggs and claim injured for two years so he won't have to fight him and he can bow out claiming injuries ended his career, istead of getting embarassed by getting KTFO by Briggs.Comment

No, that's not what I meant when I said Manny is full of it...Originally posted by Leo Pradun
I meant instead of hyping the fight with Briggs, he should be hyping the fight with one of the other champions -- Oleg, Sergei, or Nikolay...
Recall that just two weeks ago, Steward was hyping anothe champ --- Rahman -- but all of the sudden, he is now hyping Briggs. I don't get it.Comment
