    Anyone know?
    we certainly don't need another boring tall yet hard hitting heavyweight around, but if he's at least 1/3 of what he was against Holyfield, then i'll bite. I hope he's willing to take more chances then wladmir over here.
    Don't get me wrong guys, I just want more excitement in the heavyweight division.

    He's probably near broke and 400 lbs. He was a self destructive dude.

    He's fought since then getting a UD over a 14-12-1 Gene Pukall in Germany in 2008. Just to give you a litmus test of how badly Bowe is faded, Robert Helenius starched this guy in 1 round.

    The picture says more than anything. The way he is just sitting there in a tiny parking space with nobody taking a blind bit of notice. ****ing sad. Something needs to be done to stop boxer's wasting their millions away or whatever they do with it, because it happens all too often nowadays.

    well, if he were to fight, it certainly wouldn't be great. he's in horrible shape and would only be fighting "for the money".
    what about an exehebtion?

    20% of prize money should be forced into some kind of a retirement fund that can only be accessed after 50 or some ****

    ****ing ridiculous all these stories of tremendous champions reduced to nothing
