Bowe seemed to recover fine following the first Holyfield fight which was a brutal back and forth affair. And Holyfield himself didn't seem to...
The fact of the matter is that Bowe was thrashed twice by Andrew Golota and but for Golota going low would have lost both fights. This would seem...
All of Bowe's supposed talent wasn't enough to save him from taking horrific beatings at the hand of Andrew Golota. Skilled SHW? Not skilled...

Also, I don't find the argument as to the superiority of Ali's competition very compelling. Aside from Ali who did Frazier beat that would be...
