Like one of the announcers said " The one guy acts like he's scared and the other guy acts like he's glad of it". Classic line.
LMFAO ! something stinks about that finish.. he did not look tired at all. Hell nobody did anything to get tired ?how could he be tired ? It takes more effort to put your kids to bed. then fight as one of those combatants tonight. . Sergei looked like he was throwing the fight to me. He was way ahead on the cards and at the very end he never even tried to move away from the slow plodding half a** aggression of Briggs? . just speculation of course, but something looks wrong to me !

Nothing stunk about that finish as matter of fact the ref should not have let Sergei continue after the first knockdown he was out and non responsive, look at the video...both guys were pathetic but Briggs hurt Liakhovich with EVERY shot he hit him with, Sergei was shot by the later rounds but Briggs was too busy gasping for air to put anything together...just one look at Sergei's face tells the story he was completely busted up, either Briggs hits that hard now or Sergei is that bad, take your pick...Te expectation were too great for this fight and both guys got drained by the "moment" more than the actually physical activity.....it happens quite often especially in the heavy's...
