    I wonder if a fight in January of 92 between Bowe and Tyson would be any different in terms of the voting. Bowe would have a better shot since Tyson no longer had Rooney and lost his defensive interest, but it would have been interesting.

    Tyson a clear winner in the polls on both forums.

    A fight in 91 between Bowe and Tyson would probably have a closer vote, but Tyson would still take it I imagine

    Bowe in my opinion would have had the best chances of beating Tyson. He had the mean streak and the inside game to fight with Tyson. Just not sure he would be able to take the punishment Tyson would be dishing out.
    I would go with Tyson, but I would give the best Bowe (92), the best chance of lewis or Holyfield of beating Tyson at his best.

    I'd pick Tyson for reasons many have spelled out, namely that Bowe's defense wasn't the best and he wasn't smart enough to use his size the was someone like Lewis would and he could be hurt. It would be a classic for about 5-6 rounds then it would be over.
