I add, Briggs in his prime, lost with Sedreck Williams who is none and lost more fights than that he won. And this Briggs is no more in his prime too and manage to win the same with Liakhovic. The same Briggs who has been demolished by a 40 years old Vitali. He lost every round as if he was a little boy, with a no more prime Vitali(who is good even now, Vitali is a champion). And Briggs beat Liakhovic. So Liakhovic is good? For what? Potatoes?
Yeah agreed. Briggs is a fun personality and a solid heavyweight who was in some fun fights. He's not one of the all time greats by any means but he was a big puncher who had a winning personality who helped liven up the division when many Americans started turning away from it.
i remember my brother phoning me long distance after watching this fight. He told me what happened and to watch the repeat. So i did. I just about died when i seen this. Too funny
@SquallLeon81 You an idiot? Briggs was a heavyweight contender in his prime, and to stand against his raw power in 12 rounds is an achievment.
Bet you got a lot of fighting experience, I have not. Only been boxing for 3 years and only got 3 fights, but I have enough experience to respect these fighters earning their wages - try it!
Briggs in his prime was good not a top fighter but very good.
This Briggs is far from his prime and Lyakhovic cannot win against him!
Look at the punches they are all slow and not powerful and lyakhovic cannot take theme!
I cannot understand why he is considered good.
Lyakhovic here should be in his prime and lost with a weak Briggs I can say Briggs is no more in his prime,but Lyakhovic is trash and his loss with no more a prime Valuev he lost every round.
But are you capable of commenting without insulting someone else. I hate people who hide behind the net for insulting. Briggs is not very good he is average. He lost against Sedreck Williams that is very embarassing as a puncher and he fight nobody most of the time. People with a record of 30 defeats and 7 wins. That's not to be good. He lost against Felix Savon on Olympics game in round 1, He lost against Lennox and Ibragimov. When he has to face someone on top he always lose.
Yes I'm not saying he is shit. For me he is average, probably a little more, but I cannot tell he is a top boxer. I remember the lesson Botha gave to him. The problem of Briggs is the stamina very low
@SquallLeon81 Briggs has asthma,that is where the stamina problem comes from He is not an all time great by any means but he has done some great things. He holds the first round KO record with 30. He took the punches of George Foreman and Vitali Klitschko and wasn't KO'd. He became a 2 time world champ after having a very rough start in life. His mom was a drug addict,his Dad was away and Shannon was homeless on the streets for quite some time as a teen. He's a good guy though.
@SquallLeon81 Liakhovich is the worst boxer you've ever seen? Check out his fight against Lamon Brewster, Liakhovich is a true warrior. Not a keyboard warrior like you though...
Brewster suffer a retin detachment in the second round and yet Brewster is not that good as everyone thinks only because beat Klitschko one time and was very luck. Klitschko embarassed him for 5 rounds than go out of gas. Brewster that is not great, will beat for sure Liakhovic on a rematch. Liakhovic for me is overrated and I think he isn't good at all.
@DiebelsAlt Oh yes, so one become world champion is automatically good. I'm not saying he is shit, he can beat anyone who is average level, but with a prime Tyson, prime Vitali ko in the first round. Think what you want he has been embarassed by Valuev that is one of the worst heavyweight world champion ever. As soon as you give an opponent to Liakhovic who is more that average he goes down. Helenius kill him and has been embarassed by Chisora.
@SquallLeon81 "I'm not saying he is shit" Of course you DID. Some comments ago you said he's the worst boxer you've ever seen (you obviously don't know much about the sport)... He may be past his prime now, but in 2006 he won the title in one of the best heavyweight fights of the last years.
By the way: Liakhovich lost to Briggs in '06, Vitali beat Briggs in 2010... What I'm saying here is: Your comparing boxing mathematics just don't work..... Now just stop commenting, smartypants....
Yes I confirm he is the worst heavyweight champion ever. Not the worst boxer ever! As a World Champion he is the worst he cannot compete with other great champion. Look at how fat is Briggs in this fight he is very weak here and beat Liakhovic easyly. Ibragimov destroyed Briggs who beat Liakhovic and Wladimir beat Ibragimov easyly. Now judge to yourself if Liakhovic is good. Only luck to win a title!

yeah, but You also have to see with who he became champion. First time against Foreman at 48 years of age and Foreman has been robbed.
Secondo time against Liakhovic who is thw worst boxer I have ever seen he lost with everyone!
SquallLeon81 3 months ago
@SquallLeon81 Yes Foreman got robbed but Briggs still won according to the asshole judges. Briggs was close to KO'ing Lennox though.
