I have heard fighters say Vitali's punches are surprisingly quick coming from so low. Just throwing that out there. I think the B- might be a bit harsh. I also see a KO happening within 7. Really cant see this going 12 Cliff.

It's be nice to watch a fight for once without some whiney boxing writer pissing all over it before it even starts. I swear, boxing media is the only sports media that constantly denigrates its own product. Would baseball media tell you that a game is likely to be a snoozefest, raising the issue of why watch it at all? Sad and ridiculous.

I would have been lying to pretend Briggs had a realistic chance or that he was even a decent challenger.
