    exactly, somebody touched on this a week or so ago

    brock and wlad are contemporaries, while briggs is just leftovers from a past generation of heavies. wlad would receive no credit for beating briggs in the long run since shannon is never going to get any farther than he has already been.

    meanwhile, chances are that brock can lose this fight and still come back and win a title and possibly challenge wladamir again somewhere down the road in a unification fight.

    someone tell calvin brock that God was with Chris Byrd when he fought wladamir and the best he could do for him was make sure he made it out alive.

      I dont give a **** anymore.

      I just wanna see someone KTFO.


      I think Briggs would be a more dangerous fight, but Klitschko would get no recognition for it. Since Briggs as soemeone mentioned is old leftovers.

      Now Brock is an up and coming undefeated prospect, that might go on to do bigger things in the future. So taking him out gives Wlad some credit.

      Anyway, we need some fights happening.

                don't know if this has been covered here, but this is the reason wladiir is in negotiations with brock now instead of briggs:


                "After learning that Briggs had signed with promoter Don King, Team Klitschko set their sights on Brock."

                  shannon briggs decided to save his own life

                  he saw don king had two champions who, unlike wlad, he may actually be able to beat, so he signed with him because obviously don king promised him he would give him the next shot at the title now that beck, barrett have gotten theirs. the winner of golota/mcbride will be fed to whichever champ briggs doesent get, that way don can keep things 100 percent King in all his title fights.
