Try in reverse. It's YOU who has no clue at rating boxers ABILITY, not success based on size, ability to take punches to give one, etc. You don't get tired yourselves how Bowe was "shot" after these "wars" with Holyfield, but key that into "class". A fighter who is "shot" after 3 fights with a capable boxer but no destructive puncher has shown what happens to him when he is in with a tall accumulation puncher with a very good eye - he GETS BEAT BADLY. That's why Bowe avoided Lewis. Not "hah, he wanted to PROTEST them bad bad alphabets!". Bowe = size with no skill to write home about. A skillful fighter doesn't lose badly against the freak Golota. Hopkins has skills that allow him to still dominate fighters without the endurance of a 27 years old. And where do you get that ****ing "good jab" from ?
I think Vitali will win it. People talk about Bowe has the better chin then Lewis? Well duh to have the pathetic record beside Holyfield on the resumes of Bowe, Lewis would have a great chin. Better jab? lol. But again i think Vitali would win it cause not only he's taller but he's more skill then Bowe.
Seriously though, where do you get this "Bowe's jab was great" idea from? Bowe's jab was nothing to write home about and Bowe never made ANY serious attempt to keep Holyfield from closing the distance and getting within range.
Bowe would lose, but not because of the Klitschko-Golota comparison. Golota had a FANTASTIC jab, something Vitali does not have. However, Bowe had no straight right, only an overhand right. He had a great hook, but as we saw last fight, Vitali is EXTREMELY hard to hit if you are a one-handed fighter. I see Vitali winning a decision.
Bowe had a great jab maybe the best in the heavys since Holmes and Carl williams. How many times have you seen Bowe fight:huh I had watched him since he started out and he had an excellent jab
Yey you should have heard this vitali nut huggers a couple hours ago it was me blade2 vs all of the ukraine!!
Vitali would mess Bowe up. Klitschko at 38 is a better fighter than Bowe was at 28. After watching Golota destroy Bowe twice I understood why he avoided Lennox Lewis.
Bowe was basicly shot in that first fight, and both weight drained and shot in the 2nd, why not watch Bowe Holyfield 1 becuase thats the bowe we are talking about
I don't think Bowe was shot in the first Golota fight, it was only a few months after he beat Holyfield. I know he was weight drained in the rematch but I think his lack of confidence had more to do with the beating he took than that. He knew he couldn't defeat Golota and he was gun shy from the opening bell. I've seen the Bowe-Holyfield trilogy many times and Vitali would beat the Bowe from the first fight. I don't think Bowe could KO Vitali and I don't think he could take the consistent attack of Klitschko for 12 rounds, and even if he could he would lose a UD.
Dude he started to slip even in that third fight with Evander it was a different bowe those wars took the life out of him, and his wars at the dinner table as well..... the third Bowe Holyfield you could clearly see bowe was not as sharp, the post fight interview you can hear him sluring.... Prime Bowe (from the 1st Holyfield fight) beats the **** out of both Klitschkos.... and easy.
