Jack Dempsey v Shannon Briggs

[McGrain]

But i've absolutley no interest in your pick, just the how.

I'm assuming most people will pick Dempsey. Why? Let's hear about the mechanics of how he would go about beating Briggs.

How do you see the first round going? Site Demsepy's ability and why it would be affective against the bigger Briggs.

If you are picking Briggs please justify what makes THIS era so much stronger than THAT era (which I think would be implied) as well as telling us about the fight mechanics and how you see it going.

Dempsey TKO1 Briggs

Briggs has no stamina and reduced speed. He tires too quickly, throws too few punches, and holds his hands too low to be able to last long against Jack Dempsey. Dempsey would have no fear and would swarm Briggs early. Briggs couldn't handle to pace set by Jack and would hit by combination after combination. Now if this is the 1990s Briggs, he could last a few rounds.

This could actually be fun while it lasted. the briggs who fought lewis had fast hands, a solid chin and great size. he´d dwarf dempsey.

i could envision a dempsey vs firpo kind of fight with dempsey taking him out in three.

a prime Briggs would give him troubles with his hard and quite fast punches
