    Agreed, after round 7 his corner should have let him have one more round, round 8 they should have stopped it, the ref or corner. Makes you sad to even watch shit like that actually, I love boxing but I hate seeing a dude take a vicious beating like that...just fucked up. I mean what was their plan There was no way he was going to win that fight after round 8 unless he knokcked klit out and come on they can't be that stupid that they actually thought he could do that, I mean dude's never been down, let alone knocked out. I'd rather see quick stoppages than this shit.

    Im not sure Vitali is the massive puncher he is made out to be. For 12 rounds he hit Briggs flush with every right hand he threw and they all had full power in them but he couldnt even drop Shannon. This is a guy who even at his best was blown away in 3 by Daryl Wilson so im surprised the washed up 38 year old version was able to take everything Vitali threw at him.

    .. . Another boring Klitschko fight. Im sure theres some degree of disappointment he couldnt force a stoppage.

    Possibly but Lewis did him in 5 and he cant keep using the asthma excuse. He did pretty good tonight for a 38 year old washed up fighter with asthma

    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.

    The Vitali who lost to Lewis and beat Sanders was just as good as the Vitali that fought Briggs tonight. I havent seen his performances decline in any way. He was probably at his best around the time he had those fights but again Sanders was a washed up 40 year old retired golfer and it took 8 rounds off flush punches to stop him and he couldnt drop him either. Nate Tubbs blew away a prime Sanders in 2 rounds and even Rahman did it quicker.

    In summary Vitali has never been a guy who tries to get people out of their quickly despite his record. He likes to poke away at a safe distance. Briggs was there for the taking from round 5 onwards so I cant believe Vitali let a 38 year old asthmatic go 12 without atleast dropping him.

    Well thanks a lot for ruining it for the people that hasn't seen the fight.

    Whatever happened to the courtesy of adding a "Spoiler" headline on it?

    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.

    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 thought you were joking with your first post, you thought Briggs had a shot?

    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.

    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?

    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

    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

    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.
