    Both Klitschkos destroy him.

    Beats Wlad fairly early & Vitali late

    He was big, had fast hands with good power & a great jab. He would be a nightmare for both brothers

    The only advantage you could give the Klits over Bowe is their mentality & dedication to training

    I am not impressed with Bowe. He was a talented *****, but he was far too inconsistent and enigmatic for me.

    Fair comment though I think probably somewhere inbettween sits the truth.

    Bowe had a couple of good fights against Holyfield out of his whole career, which means there is a roughly 5% chance of him actually showing up to fight. If he does, he gets knocked out in the late rounds. If he doesn't, he gets knocked out early :lol::deal

    Chicken Bowe is the most overrated heavyweights on this forum. He was physically prime when he lost two events to Golota. If he didn't show up in shape that shows he's a bad professional and probably wouldn't show up to a Klitschko fight in shape

    :deal

    Bowe's leaky defence gives him a brain damage in this fights. The only puncher of Wlad's calibber he met was much smaller Hide who stunned bowe multiple times. Bowe doesn't have defence solid enough to hold against Wlad nor he has a chin to hold on.

    Both sides making some good points.

    Bowe very variable in his performances. Not sure why.

    But I think even sub-par Bowe KOs Wlad. Bowe would land at least a few, and that would be the end of Wlad.

    With Vitali, the Bowe that was losing to Golota 2x would likely lose to Vitali.

    The best Bowe would likely defeat Vitaly by UD or TKO.

    Bowe was very busy as a young pro & won the undisputed title at only 24. But he declined even quicker, especially after the last Holy fight. Bowe was never the best defensively or the most dedicated to training & he took a brutal beating from Golata twice.

    His title reigns werent great but Bowe had a tremendous heart & at his best was a great heavyweight. With a different manager he could have achieved a lot more.

    A prime Bowe would beat Wlad & Vitali imo.
