Isn't this bloke the No. 1 contender for Bellews title? Has anyone seen him fight?
I had a quick butchers at his record & he's beaten some decent fighters including a 5th round stoppage over Manuel Charr - who went 4 rounds with Vitali Klit.
He's fighting a British fighter who is 9(2)-0 & has fought NO-ONE on the undercard of Bellews bout next week. Not sure how this one got sanctioned - unless I'm missing something (highly likely ).
Anyone know anything about him? I see he's Latvian. Does that mean he's a Hatton fighter?

Duradola was coming off a win against the biggest puncher in the division in Dmitry Kudryashov.
Don't let at the nationality of Briedis fool you. Unlike his fellow countrymen he will not be coming to get beat... He will come to destroy Bellew something he can realistically do.
Vallily won Commonwealth Gold in Delhi if memory serves, he looked really good and a bit of a prospect during that tournament. His pro career has been stop start really and one would assume this is make or break to see not only what he has got but what he has left really now he is in his 30s.
Briedis is a tough ask for anyone and a huge step up for Valilly, remember thinking during the Commonwealth that he had some real potential but as I say it's just not worked out for a whole lot of reasons.
Briedis has appeared in lots of biggers better on Eurosport. Has a good amount of talent but I would like to see him fight at European Level a bit more before fighting Bellew.
I think he has the talent to cause an Upset against Tony, but has he the seasoning?
He would absolutely destroy Bellew. How do you think Bellew would deal with a 245lb man? Certainly not the way Briedis did. No way will Bellew fight this guy. He'll cash out against Haye instead. Same outcome, bigger payday.
