    Golota was a bully, but he'd stand a fifty fifty chance against Fury.

    Bowe would take it to Fury like he did Gonzalez and Donald

    Bowe's team wanted a 17 foot ring for *Larry Donald*, who scumbag Bowe sucker punched twice before the fight out of insecurity.

    Bowe and Holyfield were never the same after the first fight, they both got a lot of brain damage from that fight.

    I wonder how this poll would have looked a few weeks ago...

    Prime Bowe would thrash Fury. Now if it’s the Bowe from the Golota fight against Fury then that would be a more even match up.

    Holyfield was better in many ways afterwards i would argue. Punch ourput reduced due to extra muscle mass and later age but much more cautious, smart, strategic and dirty after the first fight.
    He was going life and death with everyone before and could produce a fight of the year candidate with a dog in the road or a local drunk in his first run at HW. And thats not a good thing.

    As bad as Fury was last weekend he wasn't as bad as Bowe in either Golota fight. I still pick Fury.

    Its almost as if Golota and Ngannou are of 2 completely different skill levels

    Ngannou is slower and less skilled but is a bigger puncher than 96 Golota. Bowe was coming off a less than convincing at times KO of Hide but no signs of being shot. He was shot after Golota no question..

    Bowe came in way overweight the first fight. Second fight he actually did much better, but still eventually got battered, although Golota started nutpunching in the rematch when Bowe dropped em. Many people hit harder than Golota I don't see that as a reason to put Fury over Bowe

    Especially when Ngannou was debuting and migrated from mma. All things considered. I don't even see how you could consider the Golota fights worse. Bowe wouldn't struggle to Ngannou. Fury could struggle with Golota

    Yeah, well Bowe had poor conditioning but not as poor as Fury. Ngannou was a debutant but he's still proven teak tough in the mma game and his power did translate to boxing which surprised me. Fury didn't want to know after feeling it. Bowe in both Golota fights took a terrible beating and didn't have a clue how to change it. Like a rabbit in the headlights. I'm pretty sure Fury can finish the job Golota couldn't. Not that this Fury isn't shot also. He is.
