    Lyle outlasts him in a tear up.

    Briggs is tough when he faces an overmatched opponent but Lyle would hit back and
    quickly wear Briggs down. Lyle in 5 or 6 rounds by KO.

    Briggs does the job.

    Lyle seems like a slightly better boxer but his gameplan is the same as Briggs' gameplan. When these two exchange, Briggs has the toughness, the power and the size.

    Lyle by KO. Lyle's resume is ATG compared to Briggs' one

    Lyle is the bigger hitter to me. Briggs has quicker hands but i think Lyle wins in a thrilling slugfest.

    Lyle had more heart and probably hit about as hard.

    Lyle brutalizes him in 4.

    Lyle had much more stamina. He would go till Briggs couldn't go.
