What do you think is the likelihood of a 2008 financial crisis happening again if we only used bitcoin and there were no fiat money at all?

Fiat money isn't the only problem. Fractional reserve lending, debt securitization, banks using collateral posted by clients... The entire financial system is a house of cards. We would need a complete overhaul of the banking system to prevent a major financial crisis like that from occurring again.
