    LaStarza beats Bowe just like Ali beat foreman. Remember, Ali's "rope-a-dope" was nothing more than a repeat of LaStarza's performance in his first fight with Marciano, where one judge scored it for LaStarza.

    Roland LaStarza won a decision against the taller and bigger Rex Layne, and he would similarly outbox Riddick Bowe, who was much slower and less talented than Layne.

    Layne was only an inch taller and 10lbs heavier.
    Bowe would be 5 inches taller, and 50-60lbs heavier.
    Bowe was a better boxer than Layne, I don't know where you got the impression he was much slower and less talented from?
    Layne was famously easy to hit.
