Well thanks a lot for ruining it for the people that hasn't seen the fight.:rolleyes:
Whatever happened to the courtesy of adding a "Spoiler" headline on it?

The Vitali who gave Lennox hell and KTFO of Sanders would have had the power to KO this guy in the same way Lennox did when Briggs was in real shape and not carrying far too much muscle as he is now.Quote:

Nate Tubbs blew away a prime Sanders in 2 rounds and even Rahman did it quicker.Quote:

I know mate, I had money on 8th round KO and in the 8th round he had him out on his feet about 4 times and backed off each time. I was screaming at the TV.Quote:

As for a decline, I have seen one in Vitali recently. There is no way Sosnowski would have put up that kind of fight against a 30 year old Vitali. I'm not saying Sosnowski did very well but he is total shite at the end of the day!

The point is that for the people who haven't seen the Briggs-Vitali fight not to clicked into this thread, I know I wouldn't have and more than likely I would have waited for someone like VD to upload the fight like he usually does. Other members usually do that with "Spoiler Alert!," But being that the title was " What a Travesty" I didn't know that. For all I know I was thinking some boxer had died or some horrible shit has happened.Quote:

And it doesn't matter if it was available for free elsewhere, I was busy, I'm guessing other member might be busy and not know the outcome of the fight.
But whatever bro. I know you're one of the more hostile members here when people don't agree with you, and I really don't feel like getting it on.
general just for future reference if you take your mouse pointer over the thread title you can usually see the first sentence or two and would have been able to see it's a briggs/vitali thread, without having known the result. Plus if you do want to catch it espn3 still has the stream up just go under replays...
I like how people all of a sudden care about Briggs, its amusing. He talked a ton of crap and he caught a beat down...Shannon's corner COULD have stopped the fight but so could the ref, so could the ringside doc, so could Vitali, and so could Shannon himself.
haye probably would have trained to get out of the way of right hands though. Briggs apparently didn't. Or couldn't.Quote:

....one thing is for sure, haye wants nothing to do with that or either of the klitchko's for that matter. They're beating the shit out of guys they dance and joke around with before hand. Imagine what they'd do to someone they really don't like.
I thought you were joking with your first post, you thought Briggs had a shot? :LOLATYOU:Quote:

Say what you want about David Haye but when he does fight the Klits he will be the fastest most powerful fighter either have fought and most of all will actually be coming to win and thats the main thing with the Klit opponents they dont really come to win they just survive. Shannon landed a right hand down the middle and it hit vitali flush on the chin and stopped him in his tracks but Briggs never capitalised on it where David would the main point is even if Haye does loses he will have come to win and try some things where no one else does
I don't like spoilers either but come on General, Daxx's title clearly was going to be a reference to last night's fight.Quote:

I mean really, no offense, but only a fucking moron would log onto a boxing forum following the weekend's big fight and click on a thread entitled 'What a travesty!!!'and not expect it to be a reference to the fight.
I mean, come one now, what did you think, he was going to be talking about? :confused:
It was a love fight!! Jesus, it seemed that photo of Vitali & Briggs cuddling was only a pre-cursor of what was to come, a full-fledged battle of homoerotica :-\Quote:

But, seriously Daxx, even though I saw the fight, you should have used a spoiler for those who didn't. Some people might have wanted to see whether Vitali KO'd him or if Briggs lasted. Admittedly I don't know why :confused:
