Former world heavyweight champion Lennkos Lewis announced the name of the most powerful puncher he had ever met in the ring.

The Briton crossed paths with such heavyweight monsters as Mike Tyson, Vitali Klitschko and Evander Holyfield, but what he remembers most is the blows Shannon Briggs.

“He lacked stamina, but Shannon Briggs definitely knew how to use his body weight to throw a punch. When you fight me, you need the full package, so strength alone is not enough. Fans may expect me to name Oliver McCall or Hasim Rahman, but essentially I’m pitting myself against both of them,” Boxing Social quotes the Brit.

Let us remember that the Lewis-Briggs fight took place in 1998 and ended with Lennox’s victory by technical knockout in the fifth round.
