"fighting for the vacant World Boxing Association title"

They're billing this as a title fight, huh?

:OhYes:

Very sad. He hasn't won a fight in 3 years. And hasn't beat a top 10 contender in 15 plus years.

Just like they owed Browne, but he screwed that up.

Is Oquendo even fit? Has he been seen anywhere in two years?

He has never been fit, he even lost before against a 45 year old Oliver McCall who never really had a good stamina himself either.

Agreed.

Briggs has no stamina these days.

He's wheezier than an old diesel engine with a clogged DPF.
Briggs has had poor stamina for well over a decade.

Based on this poll I'll bet you'd get good odds on Fres.

Yea, because sadly there are a lot of trolls or/and people that know nothing about boxing and just copy paste each others opinions on this forum.
