    Tim Witherspoon would be a tough out for Bowe. I like Bowe but I'm not sure he beats Tim at his best. Tucker could be a problem as well especially if Bowe doesn't get i side on him.

    The 80's guys were all solid but inconsistent. Tough to predict which is jusr how it was in the 80's. I almost always got it wrong. Weaver vs Tate, Smith vs Spoon, Dokes vs Weaver. The 80's was a shitshow.

    When Thomas was washed up, he had his hands down and Bowe was teeing off with clean punches and Thomas was eating those punches without going down. Prime or near to Prime Thomas would be a tough assignment

    I have total respect for your opinion. I think it would be a very interesting fight, but to me Thomas on his best day wasn’t Bowe. Just me.

    I’d even favor the past prime Thomas that Tyson beat.

    TNT Tucker was excellent before drugs got him. Heck so was Pinklon. I think they do very well with Bowe.

    The Truth Williams who faced Holmes is out jabbing and out boxing either Bowe or Lewis.

    There, I said it.

    Mike was a BEAST wiping the division out. Really really was. It’s no wonder he got complacent and distracted
