The legendary former absolute champion recalled his fight with American Shannon Briggs.
Not Mike Tyson, and not Vitali Klitschko. Lennox Lewis has named the opponent who dealt him the hardest blow of his career.
According to the former absolute champion of the world, at heavyweight Shannon Briggs has no equal in terms of punching power.
Lewis believed that this boxer knew how to use his weight, however, it did not help him, because he lost to the Briton.
“Shannon Briggs. Briggs lacks stamina, but he undoubtedly knows how to use his weight to hit better shots. But when he faced me, his power, unfortunately, was not enough. The fans might have thought I was going to call McCall or Rahman, but I prepared the fights well with both of them,” SecondsOut Boxing News quoted Lewis as saying.
We remind you that Evander Holyfield previously named his strongest opponent.
