Are we forgetting that Bowe was getting dogwalked by Andrew Golata?

He didn't lay down for a DQ. He went down from a punch to the balls after being beaten up and also hit low previously. Every boxer has a right to go down from a punch to the balls that hurts. It should be expected. Boxing isn't about proving how tough/stupid you are taking unacceptable blows to the nuts on top of everything else.

It was the referee who immediately called the DQ, not Bowe putting on for it. And a DQ was the right decision.

I'm not a big fan of Bowe but the Golota fights aren't complicated. Bowe won because Golota couldn't box like a disciplined professional and/or quit.
They were both good boxers but Bowe was better all-round because Golota was mentally lacking.

Fans of all sports have this just unusual allegiance to losers who have some talent even tho those losers never fulfill that talent. Its so weird to me. Why hype up a loser like golota when there are actual ****ing legends running in this sports history and right now (Usyk, Crawford, Inoue)?

Boxing is by far the worse thing you can do to your body in terms of sports. More boxing fans need to realize that a boxer being washed up before 30 is honestly pretty normal for how taxing the sport is.

1)Golota was beating the **** out of Bowe.
2) Golota fouled himself to a DQ twice in a row after being given many chances to not be DQd. That was a Golota problem and you can't fault the ref for the DQs
3) Bowe was out of shape the first time and lost too much weight the second time too quickly. He was also obviously suffering cognitive decline from the punishment he has taken up until that point. That was a Bowe problem and Golota would of deserved all the credit in the world still if he beat him because Bowe was still a top heavyweight at the time.
4) Golota, despite losing twice in a row, got a PPV headlining WBC title shot in his next fight vs Lennox Lewis.
5) Bowe should of been DQd previously to Mathis and probably Tillery
6) Besides Holyfield, Bowes win resume is pretty weak. Some of this isn't his fault and some of this is most definitely his fault.
7) Golotas win resume is also very weak. How many guys were considered top ten heavy at the time he beat them? Try to make a top 5 best Golota wins
8) I love the second fight despite Bowes decline and Golotas mental instability

Golota also got flatly embarrassed every step up in class he had after Bowe

He was shot after his second best win? It sounds a little like bull****. Golota just seemed like a bad matchup. Bowe was better overall than Golota in that he'd win against opponents that Golota might lose to.

Bowe getting beaten up on his way twice winning by DQ against Golota is not as bad as Joshua being beaten up and stopped by Ruiz, and not anywhere near as bad as Fury being knocked down and struggling to win a decision against Ngannou.
