    I would favor Bowe in both fights. Decision over McCall and a stoppage over Rahman. Both might be very tough though. Bowe vs Rahman would be a nice slugfest

    This, except I think Rahman would get pulverized in 4 at the most.

    McCall wouldn't be easy, for sure. Might even end up an SD, but I can't see Oliver taking it.

    Bowe beats both

    McCall loses a decision and Rahman gets stopped in the middle rounds

    Fights, plural? Aw man, based on your title I was hoping you were imagining a scenario where Cedric Kushner or Lou DiBella or even Don King or someone had sometime in the late nineties to mid aughts pioneered the concept of a "three way dance" in boxing, with this as the maiden voyage. Goddamn, would THAT be fun.

    Also, since it becomes the immediate focal point of the story whenever this is done in wrestling - between which pair do you see the first shaky temporary alliance forming? Or would it be a chaotic six fist rumble from the opening bell? Or would they just stay deadlocked in a cagey Good the Bad and the Ugly standoff?

    Bowe would destroy both because he is better than Lewis

    Yes this.
    Bowe smashes Rahman (unless it's Riddick havin a really bad off day), and gets a decision over, iron chin Mccall.
