    Bowe liked to have just a bit of distance for his uppercuts. He didn't fight inside, chest to chest, he fought "short-armed", to turn a Brownsville phrase.

    Tyson would have room to punch, the way I see it. Bowe's inside game didn't smother, Holyfield hit him plenty.

    I'd say Tyson is as well, for about 3 or 4 rounds, when he'd let his hands go.
