            When Max Baer was dethroned in a stunning upset by the original Cinderella Man of boxing, Jimmy Braddock, a journalist asked him who he thought stood the best chance of beating Braddock. Max's response?

            "The first guy he fights."

            That's how I feel about Briggs. Anyone, including Sergei in a rematch-fighting a smarter fight, will beat him. In boxing stamina is one of the most important attributes a fighter can possess and Briggs is so inadequate in this area that he'll always be at a disadvantage against anyone who has the ring smarts to avoid him early on.

              But Lyakhovich did avoid him early on. That would work if Briggs overworked himself to the point where he lost his power but in this match he paced himself. Lyakhovich did fight a smart fight (though a very ugly one), he just got caught.

                I agree and if a guy has both stamina and a descent chin he wins over briggs every time

                  Sergei fought smart until the mid rounds when he needed to change his plan and go after Briggs more. He didn't press him enough to take advantage of his tired state. Instead he just posed and moved around and wasted energy. He needed to hurt Briggs at that point, when Briggs was slow and he was still fresh. It was too late in the 12th when both men were spent but Briggs had the heavier hands.

                    I think you need an iron chin or very long reach. Lyakhovich has a decent chin and basically got taken out on one punch.

                      That is not the case at all IMO. He'd been getting tagged all night by the heavy handed Briggs. You make it sound like a clean knockout. He more or less fell through the ropes on his own accord from exhaustion and an accumulation of punishment the second time, not any one big punch.
