Old school boxers fought once a week against bunch of Shannon Briggs' opponents

[Max Power]

Here's a brain scratcher...name on one hand the number of top ten 'opponents' Briggs legitimately beat

Easy. Liakhovich. Not only was he a top 10er, but he was the WBO champion fresh off his spectacular victory over Lamon Brewster. Wow what a war that was.

Briggs scored one of the greatrest come-from-behind KO over Liakhovich to become the last, great American HW champion.

Yeah that was good of Briggs. He is still a great fighter and champion boxer but as you said, come from behind victory. It's just as likely Liakovich could have won a rematch with Briggs.

A shock KO like that is not as convincing to me of greatness than out-boxing an opponent thoroughly and scoring the KO win.

Prime Briggs would have been a good opponent for Wladimir but I don't think he brings anything much more to the table that LEapai does.
