    Don't freak out just because you were forced to answer a question openly and honestly.

    Be proud of yourself instead.

    Heck, a different ref anywhere could've stopped that in the 6th. I've seen far worse stoppages than if someone had pulled the plug on that fight at that moment.

    Anyone can hold anyone's opinion in any regard whatsoever.

    It still doesn't change that at best Bowe was denied a chance at turning the fight around.

    True, but remember this was Olympics where fighters are essentially ameteurs. The Holyfield and Golata fights had not occured so its unreasonable to expect ref to make assumption that Bowe can take a lot of punishment.

    Bowe got bashed up, it wasn't a robbery.

    Bowe had the chance years later to avenge that defeat and set the record straight but he completely embarrassed himself.

    When he binned that WBC belt it was without doubt the most embarrassing and shameful duck I've ever witnessed.
