Boxing Picks Analysis: The 6’8 “ 247 Lb. Klitschko is an expert at distance that uses a relaxed hands low style to outbox his foes at a distance. Vitali has good right hand power and a whipping left hook that he throws accurately. Klitscko is not fleet of foot but he moves well for a big man and is durable. Vitali does get panicky in the ring at times. Klitschko’s reaction speed has also slightly dimmed and he could get caught with a huge shot running away one night.

At 38-years old, Briggs is no longer a spring chicken but he has preserved himself very well. Once a cast iron slugger, Briggs now is a more complete fighter that can box, slug or counterpunch. Despite being a hulking figure, Briggs still has excellent coordination, hand speed and reflexes and has dropped 15 Lbs. Briggs’s defense makes him difficult to catch with a clean punch. Unfortunately Briggs is an underachiever that trains infrequently and lacks self confidence and stamina. The Vitali Klitschko vs. Shannon Briggs Odds would give Briggs only a 3.5% chance of winning on the Boxing Betting Moneyline.
