I empathize with Briggs fans.

    They were just bad...He was in horrid shape. Fat man punches. When I boxed a 230-240lb guy I thought he was gonna KTFO me, cause he was so huge, but not ripped

    And I have been hit WAY harder by 160lb guys then him.


    And thats what Sergei looked like, like a fatman who looks like he can punch hard but in reality cant for ****.





    Anyway I just dont see Briggs winning.


    Wlads jabs and right hand is system overload for Briggs.


    And even if Briggs drops Wlad, Wlad will stand up and knock him out, like he won against Peter.

      Sergei's punches to Brigg's head clearly had nothing on them. They were like love taps compared to what he threw at Brewster.

        Also Briggs is not as accurate as Margarito IMO. He's a clubbing puncher who's relatively quick for his mass but in no way does he impress me as an accurate or snappy puncher. He mainly hit Sergei to the sides of the head from what I remember, nothing clean to the chin or jaw.
        The whole this "fighter did this against this fighter so he will do this to this fighter" doesnt really work.
        Example, Chop Chop stunend Floyd, but Judah and Gatti did not.
        I dont get the whole Margirito hype, because size really doesnt matter all that much. Judah is much faster and a much better boxer, with comparable partner, and FLoyd handled him. He would win more impressivly over Tony, IMO.

          Also, at welterweight there isn't as much power in the division as at heavyweight. Wladimir has shown many deficiencies and a big, quick guy like Briggs can exploit them.
          youre just scared that briggs will come to your house and **** you if you say he's gonna get KO'd.

          ...that being said, i think briggs is gonna win by KO in 1 round.

          ...please dont **** me shannon

              It was a balance thing though, Floyd wasnt hurt.
