      Briggs lost to fighters who's reaches were similar or better than his own. If you get inside Briggs or are able to reach his chin more than likely you will defeat him. Sultan will not be able to reach Briggs therefore he will lose. Same goes for Lyakhovich. His reach was 6 inches less than Briggs so Lyakhovich was afraid to move in because each time he did, he got countered so then he tried fighting Briggs on the outside but his reach kept falling short of the mark.

        He lost to Briggs because he was unfit, physically and psychologically and played right into Briggs simple fight plan of holding back until the last round and then going all out. No one wins by reach alone.

              Why did everyone hate Ruiz? He was clearly twice the fighter Briggs was.

                Ruiz didnt look the part?

                And Briggs looks roided and talks ****! Thats the ideal boxer image!




                Meh, even though I couldnt stand watching Ruiz he got the job done. So he deserves respect for that alone.

                  Shannon Briggs is America. He is, on the basis that he's fat, lazy, underachieving and talented. He is the new American image.

                    Briggs said he was talking **** just to get into his head. U r all just mad he beat a European. Theres no proof and theres not even an investigation into roid use so this is all just hate and speculation more than anything else.
