gotta say Briggs looks to be in great shape, probably the best shape of his career, that said Vitali sparks him in 6

...briggs does look in decent shape, and so did peter his last outing. But the klitch's are always in shape. This will be another routine ass whoopin. I don't even think this will be as competitive as the arreolla fight...........that chris was so called too out of shape for.

Briggs is on the juice again. He will be puffing out his ass before the 6th, if he makes it there

Vitali by KO

Briggs always looks that way bro.

He's just built like that.

Has just about no stamina though.

Vitali should toy with him after about the 3rd round. Even if Shannon is in great shape he's going to tucker out pretty quick vs Vitali because Vitali will make him move around the ring both to attack Vitali and also to get away from Vitali's power. Shannon's legs will tire out and after that it should just be a walk in the park.

Vitali has a Ph.D. in administering KO's and Shannon is going to find that in the boxing ring that certification very valid and it's going to take more than an inhaler to wake his goofy ass up once Vitali blasts him.

he looked fat against Liakovich (spelling) and against Mercer, he looks a hell of a lot leaner in that pic, either way like i said it wont make a difference and Vitali is going to own him, and stop him in about 6, then Briggs will say his asthma started acting up

Briggs does look in decent shape, I just hope he is able to fight as well as he cleans. The heavyweight division is due a decent scrap.

I don't expect Briggs to cause many problems for Vitali BUT one thing that can't be denied is his punching power and if he lands we'll find out what Vitalis chin is like these days. No one for me has tested it since the comeback and common sense tells me it won't be like it once was.

That said Briggs is one of the worst HW's I've ever seen and other than his power he doesn't have anything to trouble an elite fighter like Vitali (even though he is in decline) and I thoroughly expect Briggs to be gone before the 8th!!

[Spicoli]

Briggs is a nice guy,great commentator....but he is one of the most over hyped heavys in quite some time. He's a walking caricature and almost looks like a 'pet' or sidekick to Vitali in these pics.

[Balboa]

Vitali was equally hilarious, even if by accident a couple times.

Stay away from Shannon for 5-6 minutes then unload Vit.

I agree, Briggs has really good power, but little else. Most of his record is padding (and that is most likely due to asthma ). He is dangerous for 6 minutes, but once he punches himself out Vitali should be able break him down. It will likely be slow because Vitali likes busting up his opponents over the long haul, but you can bet Briggs will be wheezing after 4.

[Drago]

briggs defo looks in great shape!

[Master]

Briggs was never that good at his best and all these years later his stamina has not improved. He has too much muscle, and will tire out after 4 rounds and get beaten.
