What's gonna happen with Shannon Briggs? Is this guy going to make a serious run?

doubt it. he's never beaten a top dog and will probably get stopped late in this one

i'll take SL.... brigg's only chance at beating anyone is a puncher's chance, which is usually slim...

[PATO 1]

briggs is a bum, lyak ko 6

[badblood]

Both are fight out of the DKP stable so this fight does not surprise me. Briggs is on a serious hot streak and I expect him to continue by KOing Sergi in the early to mid rounds.

Liakhovich will beat Briggs by a later round stoppage. His handspeed is too much for Shannon's sorry defense and his body sohts will sap what little stamina Goldielocks has. Also, Briggs's power is not an issue; if Brewster couldn't take out The White Wolf with his 5th round all-out assault, Briggs sure as hell isn't going to do it.

Maybe now all of this unwaranted Briggs hoopla will finally fall silent where it belongs.

Sergei by 9th round TKO.

[Dirt E Gomez]

Sergei's defense is his head, so it would hardly be shocking to see Briggs put the dude in a Coma.... but I'd say he would survive it and win via mid round KO.

[KingDosia]

I don't think Briggs ever lived up to his potential, Especially after his loss to Lennox Lewis. There is some talk of Briggs making a serious run for a spot among the top of the division, Emanual Stewart stated in an interview that he fears Briggs is a dangerous apponent for his champ Klitchko. What a cluster **** the heavy weight div. is now a days!!!!!

[King Koyle]

Sergei stops him in the late rounds.
