Btw....I also ran the Baldomir/Mayweather bout as well.
After 1,000 simulations the computer gave "Pretty Boy" the nod.
Though in my opinion, on both fights of Briggs/Liakhovich and Baldomir and Mayweather, they will be harder fights than expected for either men, pretty much a toss up in my opinion.

The statistics are my own personal views on each fighter. Mind you, I did not take my observations into what the computer 'sees' in either man. I just ran the fights.
In my opinion Briggs will win it, just as the computer sees it. Liakhovich is a fast and determined man, but judging from the win over Brewster, if he's pressured enough he will crumble, and Briggs is a fighter who beats guys to the punch, shorter, closer punches, is a banger, goes for the kayo and relentless.

re
Although I think Lyakhovich is very extremely over-rated due to the one win against Brewster, I certainly do not see Briggs winning in any way and if he does it will surprise the hell out of me...not because Lyakhovich is so good, but because Briggs is so average! But if Lyakhovich wants to hold on to his trinket for a while then he will need to continue fighting opponents like Briggs as he does not have a lot of talent skill-wise and he sure as hell does not have big-time punch. He does have toughness, but rarely is toughness alone enough, but with this current crop of heavyweights, as long as he stays away from Klitschko then he should do well!
