In what fight was Shannon Briggs at his absolute best?

Been watching a few of his fights. What fight would you say he was at his absolute best?

I'd say the George Foreman fight.

He didn't have asthma back then.

he almost knocked out Lennox Lewis. Or let's say he hurt him.

Interesting thought. I felt Foreman got robbed pretty good against Briggs.

Foreman got robbed big time in that fight, that was probably the 'best' Shannon Briggs though, he was never anything special.

Haven't seen that fight yet. That is quite impressive.

Briggs fought his heart out that fight, but Lennox was simply boss. Some of his combinations looked effortless. Lennox was too relaxed early on, but then warmed up and fought a relaxed paced fight with accuracy and power while busting Briggs up.

Just finished watching it. WOW!!!! Briggs went out fighting to the death.

Lennox is just on an entirely different talent level, BUT WHAT A HEART BY BRIGGS!

In the early to mid 90's he looked a force to be reckoned with!, had great power and a sturdy chin.
