Bowe's power is overrated. Ruddock was very good until the Tyson fights which really finished him off as a top level boxer.

Bowe is a decent combination puncher though, I will give you that.

Holyfield was able to brawl and exchange with Bowe but he never tried that with Tyson. Mike did send him backwards in the opening seconds of the their first fight. Holyfield was also able to knock Bowe down and didn't have near the power that Mike had ... Tyson would maul him.
