i cant believe i have to downgrade sergei from #2 heavyweight to #1 crybaby all in a weeks time -
actually he may have a case, i heard from people there that something was ****ed with the clock, that the TKO came after time had run out, the time keeper was unable to ring the round over as Liakhovich was on their table, but who knows how this will play out.Comment

if anything the fight should have been waved off after the first knockdown... liakhovich was in no condition to continue... the ref being from pheonix gave sergei a chance to finish the fight.Comment

The only thing worse than having Briggs as WBO champion is having to watch these two in a rematch.Comment

fascinating! i think he may have a case as well. he still should've just moved his ass around the ring after he was down the first time. all he really had to do was stay on his feet. that's it. it look as though he fell through the ropes by his self.
anyways, he may have a case. it does sound petty, but his team may be right.Comment

I don't see how it would have mattered because he couldn't have been saved by the bell.Comment

yeah, i would almost agree with that. thing is, just try to imagine who briggs/king would pick for a title defence. tony thompson, matt skelton, or worse - maybe somebody outside of the top ten in the wbo.The only thing worse than having Briggs as WBO champion is having to watch these two in a rematch.Comment

no way in heaven or hell was sergei getting back in the ring and up on his feet in 20 seconds....Comment

Couldn't possibly be any worse than Maskaev's defense.Originally posted by j View Post
If anything, Briggs seems like he's very eager to unify. He really wants the fight with Wlad and I'm willing to bet he'd take Valuev on in a hearbeat.Comment
