What's next for Sergei?

[Evil_Meat]

That is still true, he is one of the best heavyweights. Even if they rematch and Briggs knocks him out again, Sergei would beat more heavyweights out there than Briggs could.

clearly u've lost confidence in him. Its a bad style matchup for liakhovich though.

[Derranged]

He's back to squre one IMO.


He's a nobody. A nobody, he got a lucky win against Brewster and thats it.


So maybe we'll see him in a few years but I dont think he has anythig to offer.


I thought he was tough and that would be his weapon...

However he is out of shape, gets KTFOed (even though Klitschko gets knocked down, he was never KTFO by a punch), he doesnt have great skills, not a devistating puncher....


He has nothing to offer.

I agree, well put. He was a tune up for Brewster, and Brewster was out of shape, was blind in one eye, and probably a bit worn from his other fights. I was never impressed with this guy, and I had my doubts about him beating Briggs. But his name is out there, so I don't think we heard the last of him yet. He'll probably get another shot at the WBO in a year or so (not to say he deserves it).

"Go Sergei! After his last fight, Sergei has become one of my favorite fighters. I hope he fights Wlad next, the winner of that will be the best HW in the world."

lol...

Read my post in this same thread. I guess I was too quick to jump on his bandwagon.

You are honest. You get props for that.

This is all I got to say about this... Even though logic dictaed that Liakhovich would win against Briggs.. I started to have doubts.. And finally when I posted a prediction I went with Briggs.. WHY? well for one.. Who the **** is Brewster? Did he beat Wlad? no.. not really.. he got pummled for 5 and half rounds.. landed 3 punches.. No punch actually knocked Wlad down.. Wlad fell down at the bell.. and the REF called the fight.. no count.. and NO reagrd for the fact Wlad had 60 seconds to recover.. Would Wlad have gon eon to win the fight? prolly not.. Would it have been because of Brewster? no way.. Brewster could never win against Wlad.. But Wlad could lose against Brewster.. kNow what I mean.. Then I watched kali Meehan beat brewster from Pillar to post.. and lose a dodgy decision.. the same Mehhan that got **** kicked by AN always way overated Rahman in 4 rounds..Then I watched Brewster Destroy Golota.. SO WHAT? Golota is mental case totally prone to falling apart.. And finaly Krasniqi followed the script of beat Brewster up until he couldn't lift his arms anymore and got hit ...
Enter Liakhovich.. same script... except Brewster never landed his BOMB and Liak was smart enough to box the last 4 rounds. while it was Brewster who was gassed for once..
So Liakhovich was being rated by beating an overrated slugger..
We all know what Briggs is.. and he is ****ing juiced to the MAX.. and hits harder than a mule kick..
Wolf was out of shape .. AND SCARED ****LESS of Briggs
Briggs looks slower that Sam Peter he was gassed by the end of the 1st round
Liakhovich seriously BLEW IT... I dont think there was much difference between the Liakhovich that beat Brewster and the one that lost to Briggs..
Brewster is REALLY that ****e that he made the Wolf look good..

yes,,you were. I always said he was green and not a big puncher and that he was stopped by mo harris and his only big win was against and up and down breswter. a lot of people ignored this. still,,I thought he;d best briggs

I disagree. I think peter,,,maskeav...sultan,,,and even rahman would beat serg

[BloodClot]

He will fight the BUM circuit for the next three fights, but he is a King fighter so look for him to be in a title match within a yr and 1/2

[DiegoFuego]

He sucks plain and simple. I fell for it. I thought he was good. He's clearly a nobody and won't do anything else.

If Shannon Briggs is forced to fight Sultan Ibragimov, then it is clear that he will most probably lose his belt as fast as he got it. Sergei Liakhovich will quite probably be Ibragimov's first optional. Ibragimov can easily beat either one of these bums, even on his bad days.
