Look at what Andrew Golota did to Bowe. I know that Haye is at least that good. So he could have a good chance
Bowe probably wins a wide UD. Haye would be more competitive than people may give him credit for in this one.
I doubt Haye would go the distance. The best version of Bowe was an incredible fighter - too bad he wasted it.
I remember the same being said when he fought Klitschko. It's not unthinkable that he gets stopped of course. The version of Bowe who fought Holyfield was immense. Personally, I think Haye has enough about him to have lasted the distance against Bowe, and enough power to make Bowe think before wading in. As you say, it's a shame that Bowe never fulfilled his potential because he was a talented fighter.
That wasn't prime Bowe. That was the war weary version who clearly left something in the ring against Holy.
