    Let's be fair , Briggs is a fucking lunatic , and not for one minute do I think that he should get a fight against Wlad. But, credit where credit is due, he is in seriously good shape, better than some contenders 20 years younger than him, fair play to him.
    All Wlad probably has to do is say " yeah , let's fight, but we have dope tests fortnightly, starting today!!!" that'll probably shut the fucker up!

    More and more Briggs reminds me of some over aggressive half loon pan handler who rushes your window at the stop light. He's amongst some of best heavyweights this weekend and still reduced to buffoonery.

    Crazy like a fox or the Mad Trapper Albert Johnson who kept the early RCMP at bay in our North by simply wearing his snow shoes backwards.

    Truth be told I think Briggs beats most of the clams in the division and his desire and return in really nothing short of spectacular. I think he's as dangerous as hell and has a much better pedigree then anyone Wlad has fought.

    I have a 2 mile bridge over a 5 mile wide river I want to sell you then Yeh Briggs 'looks' spectacular and credit for staying in shape and barging his way into the conversation of guys who actually beat a top ten heavyweight there but I sat and watched Briggs load up and suck air against a guy since blasted out by Molina and Joshua and cannot buy into his charade. He's a presence for sure but truth be told he was never that good. I think a Jennings beats him up.

    How would we know? I can't recall him fighting anyone remotely decent since Vitali beat the snot out of him back in like aught 10. I suspect if he did fight someone with a pulse he would look like the same guy with no stamina.

    Shannon Briggs could have worked his way up the ladder already but he won't fight anyone worth a damn.

    Mike Marrone ffs. Off a 4 yr retirement where he was destroyed by a 40 years old cruiserweight.

    Briggs is all buffed up bluster but he won't take off the slippers and leave the couch to crash the division.

    That is the standard Briggs is fighting? How can that justify a fight with Wlad.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    These days you don't have to sadly. Just talk loud and have fans remember that one time you staggered Lewis almost two decades ago . On the flip side...there have been more than a few guys who couldn't be justified as Wlad challengers. Pianeta for example. He knocked Marrone out five long years ago.

    How do you define the word deserve?

    Do You deserve it because you're merely active?

    Or because you are a better fighter?

    For example, Pianeta is ranked 60th HW in the world on boxrec and he fought Wlad... However Briggs is 12 places higher than him at 48th HW in the world. So does Briggs deserve a shot based on this? Probably not.

    It comes down to who sells a fight! I wanna see Briggs vs Wlad a LOT more than Wlad vs anyone else.
