    Give me a break with that ****...Bowe was a PHENOMINAL fighter before Holyfield and because of his poor training habits and the fact that he was BAT **** CRAZY, is widely considered as the BIGGEST waste of talent ever.

    Bowe in top form would beat Wlad, but to be truthful Bowe's best didn't come that often, really. How impressive was Wlad tonight? I didn't catch that much of the fight really.

    Phenomenal based on what? Beating a cruiser (Hide)? Jorge Luis Gonzales? Donald?

    All I see is a fighter who picked on Holyfield, lost once, and needed hepatitis outbreak to win the trilogy.

    Bowe's prime was such short lived that many people forget how fantastic a fighter he was. They remember the out of shape, half way crazy Bowe from the Golota fights.

    As for Wlad tonight. He looked good. FROM THE OUTSIDE...but if the fight went inside WITHOUT Wlad tying up, he looked terrible. Just as he has in many (if not every) of his fights in the past.

    I like Wlad alot...I cant stress that enough...but after watching this happen AGAIN, I had to make a post about it.

    Im done talking Bowe (who I wasnt even a fan of when he was an active fighter...not at all actually) with a fighter who has an obvious biased view of him.

    Wanna talk Lennox or Wlad or anything else...that is fine, but its clear you just DONT LIKE Bowe. So anything I say is like talking to a wall and a waste of time.

    :hi:

    Lennox wasnt bad on the inside, but I agree wlad is terrible. I thought the tiger had an opportunity to do more damage on the inside but his work was ultimately disappointing.

    I like Bowe. I just take exception when he is in the same sentence as phenomenal, which is clearly wrong based on clear and convinving evidence. :deal

    Go back and read my post and realize that it has ZERO do to with hatred or bias and EVERYTHING to do with observation and truth.

    Till then, please, stop posting. I predicted there would be a couple idiots who would make a post JUST like you did in the original and ignore that I was actually a big fan of Wlad's. And LO AND BEHOLD, you make a post saying pretty much exactly what I predicted.

    Thank you for making me look like Nostradamus!!!

    (cute cat tho!!!)

    :good

    Vlad would have beaten Bowe. Look what Golota did to him. Lewis knocked Bowe out in the amateurs.

    Question for you Farmboxer: would any black fighter, ever, beat any white fighter, ever? In your opinion.

    I wouldn't call him atrocious at inside fighting, but it's definitely his biggest strength, but then again how could it be? He's 6'6" with an 81" reach. He meant to be an outside fighter based on his size alone.

    No he is atrocious on the inside.

    And just an FYI, Bowe was 6'5 with a 81" reach and he is one of the best inside fighters at HW ever. Lewis was 6'5 with an 84" reach...and his uppercut (with both hands mind you) on the inside was one of the most beautiful punches Ive ever seen.

    I could pick out a ton of top HWs who were tall, long and fantastic on the inside.

    Wlad is one of the best I have ever seen from a distance...and one of the wost in close. His size or length have ZERO to do with this.
