    Before the Bowe/Holyfield fight, there were rumors that if Bowe won, he would intend to defend first against Georges Foreman.
    In response, Lewis stated that Bowe was afraid to fight him because of their amateur final.
    This is why Bowe confronted him directly about that.

    I thought the line was Bowe ducked him even though he called him the ‘hair dresser’.
    Bowe beat one of the greatest heavyweights of all time 2 of 3 and stopped him the 3rd fight. So it’s baffling what happened against Golota. He seemed all of a sudden a bit spent.
