    Lennox

    Bowe

    Holyfield

    Why is there no middle ground? Its either today's division is ****....or....people liked the division because they were American and black. OM****ingG! How about, today's division is different, but far from ****...and...a lot of us(including southern whites, like me)loved the 90s not because the boxers were black, not because they were Americans, its what we watched as teenagers.

    Wow....massive shipment of fail. To illustrate how Bowe's devastating powers of destruction would destroy Adamek, you posted a clip of him shattering the appalling fragile glass mandible of 90's heavyweight mega joke Bruce Seldon to back up your argument! Epic :bbb.

    Why not go all out with your argument? - pull out the heavy artillery and post a clip of Herbie Hide being dropped and left in the gutters of ***** street after hitting his head on Bowe's fugly face :lol::rofl:patsch.

    Does anyone remember that a couple years before he was ranked #1 in 91', Hloyfield was making his move from cruiser to heavy? Many boxing "experts" thought he was too small and his lack of punch would not get him very far with the likes of a Mike Tyson (prior to his meltdown) or Riddick Bowe. Perhaps the 90's was not as competitive as advertised as Holy had gone life and death with Qwai @ cruiser and later with a coked out Michael Dokes (great fights by the way) prior to winning a championsip and remaining competitive thoughout the 90's.
