Briggs will win by early mugging (Mike Tyson to walk Sultan to the ring)

[tedsares]

In round four, we get the answer. Briggs does a gut-check, conjures up energy from down deep and goes right after his opponent trapping him on the ropes. Blasting away with malefic shots, its deja vue as he clubs the helpless Russian through the ropes, down and quite literally out for the count. Sultan has learned that Shannon Briggs is no Javier Mora. Sultan has learned that Briggs is no Ray Austin.

"Tyson will walk Sultan into the ring"

I've never seen Sultan fight before. Correction, I saw the abbreviated bout he fought after Briggs came down sick. SB has the ability, I think, to KO any heavyweight. He's huge. It's just a matter of how much he needs to have in the tank to check Ibragimov's chin.

I'll hazard a guess and say Briggs by 7 round KO.

[Tito BHB]

Sultan had the fight with Austin but let him back into it and got knocked down..

He had the early rounds and a knockdown in the bank and still got a draw..
Sergei had 12 rounds in the bank and got sparked against shannon..

Ibragimov needs to be very very careful if he wants to pull this one off!

The replay indicated that Sultan had been decked twice, but the ref misses it...or am I mistaken?

Briggs blasting away?
Briggs throwing malefic shots?
Briggs clubbing an opponent THROUGH the ropes?

Now I know you dreamed this up. I take it you missed his fight against Lyakhovich huh?

Moneys on Sultan, if he can throw his combinations off and not hesitate like he did in the second half of his fight against Austin then Sultan wins a UD possible late stoppage by the ref.

I'm not confident to predict a winner.... I'm not sold on Briggs 100% If he didnt pull that fight out of his azz at the last minute and won despite himself, we would still be saying what a waste and what a bum he is, he is walking a vey fine line right now..

I want Shannon to win, but dont know if he can, to much instability with the Heavies these days

Somehow the idea of Sultan being a World Champion leaves me as cold as a dead fish

I sure as hell didn't miss his "fight" with Austin.

Brigg catches this guy, and Sultan will be as cold as a dead fish.

With 1 punch per round his chances are VERY slim.

Agreed, but all it takes is one from Briggs. I'm not a big Briggs fan, but I'm definately not sold on Sultan yet.

I see your point.
I'm going here on the fact that Sultans faster the Briggs and that Sultan throws combos.
Something that Briggs hasn't shown.

Briggs is just a lumbering oaf with anvils at the end of his arms. Sultan should outbox him, but there are no room for mistakes with a big guy like Briggs. Although Briggs' skills have depleted, I just feel he is crafty enough to catch him, and I'm not sure how Sultan can take it.

[USA LOVES THE KLITSCHKOS]

IMO I think Ibragimov will handle Briggs like he did Lance Whitaker.
