Holyfield Vs. Briggs 1998

Who wins?

That year Briggs gave prime Lewis a good test and Holyfield was IBF/WBA champ

[gregor]

I have no doubts Holy, probably by KO/TKO.

Lewis-Briggs was entertaining, and there was a moment an upset was close, but... well, it was only a moment. Briggs was lucky to land something on Lewis, even had him hurt, but was not able to capitalize. When Lewis recovered and adjusted his style, he looked more and more like a punching bag.

Holy was still not shot, and his chin was much better than Lewis - so even if Briggs lands something he wouldn't be in danger. And considering Briggs stamina, I can't see him winning any round after 6th.

It really depends considering how much Brigg's varied.

Very much a confidence based fighter.

Holyfield I can't see Briggs winning this especially with his stamina issues.
