    Holmes decision. Faster, and has better jab and he's a better technician, and he's more diverse

    I will go with the above position, but I am not confident.

    Holmes for sure although Bowe would make it competitive. Holmes showed his pedigree time and time again and was still beating some of the best in the division well into his 40's.
    Bowe on the other hand had a very short prime and through indiscipline and the beating he took from Golota disappeared from the scene. A couple of good nights against Holyfield does not make him an ATG fighter and Holmes at his best would have had too much of everything for him.
