    I know everybody laughs at me when I saw this, but I've always believed that Bowe, at his absolute peak, is a H2H monster, possibly one of the hardest heavyweights in history to beat. He had size, skill, rhythm, power, great footwork and speed for his size, and a very good chin.

    How do you think he, at his best, stacks up against the Klitschkos?

    How do you see the fight playing out against each one?

    Sorry about the triple post. I don't know how that happened.

    I don't know. Neither does anybody else.

    Bowe's lack of self-discipline made me vote against him. Fights are won or lost in the gym and Bowe's preparation tended to be inconsistent.

    Bowe at his peak would stand a good chance against any HW in history. Unfortunately, as is well known, Bowe's discipline was non-existent, and he ate himself right out of contention. But for that very short period when he WAS at his peak........

    In an epic war with Vitali, I'd give a very slight edge to Bowe on points, though admittedly it could go either way.

    Against Huggy Bear it would be a mis-match. Wlad wouldn't get away with hit and grab against a guy with Bowe's skills, and Bowe would KO Wlad without a doubt.

    Vitali or Vlad would knock Bowe out cold................
