    I can't see past an Ali win. Bowe simply isn't good enough to box Ali from range, and Ali is far to smart to fight on the inside which would suit Bowe more.

    Holmes vs Dokes. I've been watching late 70's & 80's heavyweight fights & Dokes was pretty impressive. Not a puncher but man his handspeed was blazing!

    Holmes-Dokes-good pick

    Holmes-Thomas

    Holmes-Page-in condition

    Holmes VS revived Weaver

    Holmes-Coetzee

    Holmes-Tate (before Weaver)

    these are all fights I was dying to see and stylistically competitive

    People say there weren't any good heavyweights when Holmes was champ. There were plenty of good fighters but for various reasons, multiple belts being one, Holmes never fought them.

    Michael was Larry's sparring partner for a year, and Larry said that Michael could hit,but couldn't handle his jab.
