Think this fight would be very entertaining. I’d probably give it to Briggs since he was quicker and Ruddock was basically a one armed fighter. Prime for prime who takes it?
Both overrated , but I would take Ruddock based on how he performed against Mike Tyson. That showing should be enough to beat Briggs , unless Briggs pots shots to a dec on the backfoot
Ruddock could destroy James Smith who was bigger and better than the prime Briggs.Briggs in his prime couldn't beat a slow,fat,featherfisted Botha. And now about Ruddock's power,toughness etc... All in all Ruddock ! I can't imagine another choice.
Tough fight. Probably in Ruddock's favour but not by that much. 55-45 or 60-40 type of affair. Briggs could take punishment if he had to.
