I think Briggs will be gassed and totally out of breath after struggling with the ring ropes prior to the introductions. If he goes overtop of the ropes,high altitude lack of oxygen.....problem..get the asthma puffer ready!
If he goes through the ropes bending over, all that upper body muscle will bend him over like a pretzel probably pull a back muscle trying to stand up and end up on the mat with back spasms before sultan makes it to the ring,.
Assuming he makes through those two obstacle's in his present state (i don't dare use the word condition when describing Briggs) He still has to deal with the exhausting "get this heavy single layer silk robe off of me"
ordeal. Already sweating and puffing from having to lug the robe all the way from the dressing room he may just say "hell leave it on....I'm done!!!"
In any event it seem unlikely that he will ever again be able to match his blistering 3 punch per round output of the Sergei Liakovich fight.
