    Probably butt rapes both of them. Prime Bowe burnt brightly for a very, very brief time

    When you think of Riddick Bowe at his best you set your mind back to '92. I think that version of Bowe would have given a lot of Heavyweights throughout history a tough time. A truly big guy, deceptively fast hands, and could fight effectively on the inside as well as the outside, utilising one of the best jabs in the division at the time. It's a shame how he declined so quickly.

    Knocks out Wlad. Prime Vitali is a good fight.

    Bowe would dominate both the Klits, seriously. Bowe didn't take no shyt and had a mean streak when he was in the ring.

    There's not an option for "He would have dropped two belts in the trash rather than fight either one of them."

    It would have been some good fights. That i think everyone can agree on.

    I believe Bowe would have caused problems for both. I'm not saying he would win but Bowe is the type of fighter who had the size, balls and power.

    The guy was outclassed by Golata TWICE!!!

    Either Klitschko uses his ass for a snowshoe

    Bowe fought down to his opponents, but KNEW he couldnt fight up to the better ones.....hence no Tyson, no Lewis, and No Foreman.

    Either K2 KOs him badly after buttraping him with their jabs and straights until Bowe crumbles in tears b4 leaving the arena, going to a gun store to rob a check cashing place.:rofl

    He was 2-0 against the Foul Pole. The Bowe from the early 90's whips them both easily.
