Price has never looked like he can do 12 imo
I agree, but who knows if Fury would be able to either after his venture into morbid obesity.
Yet you predict a decision? I agree with ossyrules, highly unlikely that goes to the cards.

I could see a sluggish decision where both fighters are gassed, and barely making it through the rounds in the 2nd half.

A stoppage would be none too surprising either obviously.

I'd be shocked if price could box for 36 minutes.

Sure if you're still upright after three rounds you should beat Briggs, but he's very dangerous for the first few rounds. I can think of less risky options, there again even the new family-size Tyson should be sufficiently elusive to make those opening few rounds less dangerous than they would be for many potential Briggs opponents.
ya mate think of all those top fighters briggs has stopped early within the last 10 years. its not like he got totally clowned by someone like sultan ibragimov. and i mean not like in his last meaningul fight 8 years ago he was pummeled into the hospital. surely hed be better at 47 than 40 too.
Sultan Ibragimov was undefeated and only ever lost to Wlad. Losing to him is no disgrace. Briggs has knocked out his last 4 or 5 opponents and although they were only journeymen they still needed knocking out. Don't get me wrong, a good boxer should expect to beat a 2017 Shannon Briggs but his power gives him a chance of getting you out of there early. I can think of a lot of opponents where this wouldn't be an issue and therefore less risky.

briggs isnt dangerous against anyone decent, though be convinced by the nearly 50 year old stoping bums if you want, although he didnt stop that love guy.

When I start seeing the weight fall off is when I start taking Tyson seriously.
