    Just means he was in the firing line more than Lewis was.

    You're taking Dino to school here :D

    The only way Bowe beats Lewis is if Lewis had one of his "off nights" and got tagged by something big. It's possible. Sloppy ass Bowe had big power, I'll give him that much credit. All things being equal, however, Bowe would have received a royal pummelling.

    Lewis ducked Bowe. How ???.....Bowe was the Champion and he elected to throw his WBC portion in the bin and fight zero's Dokes and Ferguson which proved Bowe wanted an easy ride and when he chose to fight Holyfield again he lost and his career never regained momentum whereas Lewis was still defeating the best in the division 7 years after Bowe had retired, to me that speaks volumes

    Think about it logically, Lewis had just flattened Razor Ruddock, a fighter who was widely regarded as the most dangerous guy in the division, why then would he choose to dodge a fighter whom he'd already defeated in the Olympics??? Lewis never dodged anyone, it was Bowe's window that was relatively small and had opted for a safety first route to the title, Bowe should have fought Ruddock but dodged him in favour of the South African Coetzer as he viewed him as less of a threat, the evidence in Lewis' favour is overwhelming in relation to who ducked who...........

    Plenty of posts in this thread explain why, backed up with photographic evidence as well. . Stop asking questions that have already been answered .

    Bowe was the champion whereas Lewis was the challenger, how can a challenger duck a champion??? Bowe's relinquishing of the belt allowed him to move away from Lewis, simples.

    This is too straightforward for Dino.

    There's got to be another explanation ... another way, a scenario where through some sort of topsy turvy quantum effect black is white and Lewis ducked Bowe by not immediately bursting into tears when Bowe surrendered his belt and ran away.

    You evidently haven't interacted too much with DinoDeluded.

    Stay tuned, he's just getting warmed up ;)

    Very simple. By pricing themselves out and demanding options. Canelo was the lineal MW Champion and he just ducked Golovkin.
    Lewis and his promoter Frank Maloney priced them selves out.

    :lol: There are set cuts in these things. Bowe probably wanted some sort of 90-10 cut and Lewis told him to FO. Good for Lewis.

    Bowe agreed to fave Lewis for 35%.
    You abandoned this thread a few days ago when faced with facts and news paper clippings. Now you want to start all again over like nothing ever happened. Those carrots needs cleaning :polutxoso:

    :lol: DinoDeluded hard at work again, I see ^

    Bowe ran as champion, that's all I need to know. Lewis could make no demands as challenger, except that Bowe face him.

    Lewis beat him before and would beat him again.

    Maloney wanted more than 10 million which was being offered by Don King. He black mailed Newman spurred on by King who was best mates with Sulliman.
    What you know about this situation is too basic to even take you seriously.

    Cool story bro! When does the Undertaker come running in?

    Bowe trashed the belt because he was too brown in the underwear to face a REAL champion like Lewis. He knew Lewis would beat him like a drum.
