    Riddick Bowe ducked Lennox Lewis, and Lennox Lewis ducked Wladimir Klitschko. And i'll add that if Bowe wanted to fight Wlad, he could have done it when he was champ, instead of fighting that Golota guy (and getting schooled twice). The reason Wlad doesn't have a very impressive record is that so many people were afraid to fight him. And the reason for ducking him is obvious: he always had an 85% KO average.

    Did you watch the entire thing. Did you see the differences between Bowe from the first fight to the third. Did you see how he was around the third Holyfield fight?? He was done then. Golota only added to the scrambling of Bowe's brain. Watchttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPP5XoepzmAh this

    Yeah one similarity between the 3rd Holy fight and the first Golota fight...he was out of shape for both.

    Again Bowe's own fault for ravaging his body...did you catch the part where it said he lost 50lbs in 8 weeks?Nobodies fault but his own!Weight not being SHOT hurt Bowe.The shot part Golota did.:deal

    Gonzalez was a bully who was a good amateur but he was a bully at heavyweight. Bowe might very well win but I wouldn't base it on this fight. Coetzer, his fights with talented Holyield. It would be interesting to see big Bowe going after Wlad what would happen and who would be better jab for jab. Of course I also have the Golota fights in mind. What happens when someone is able to fight Bowe back where Bowe doesn't have advantages in Physical attributes?
    This would be one hell of an interesting matchup. It could end up like Sanders-Klitschko with Bowe overwhelming him but it could also end up like Goloata-Bowe except for the low blows with Klitschko winning it.

    To be fair, not everyone is cut out to be a United States Marine, and that goes for HW champions the same as everyone else.

    The Marines are the Few and the Proud for a reason. Bet Wlad wouldn't even last 11 days @ Parris Island.

    Because Bowe beat Jorge Luis Gonzales? Are you ****in' high?

    If you are comparing the boxing skill of Wladimir to Jorge you are touching yourself.

    Wlad has already passed Bowe in ATG status and he would've surely beaten Bowe. Riddick had problems wit5h the jab & power of Golota................ :patsch

    Perfectly posted. Bowe had potential but it didn't translate in the ring.

    Sure, :rofl of course. The same Bowe that got his ass kicked vs. Golota? Andrew is like a poor man's version of Wladimir. Decent jab & good power. WK has an elite jab & elite power.

    Bowe beat a prime Holyfield. Wlad got starched in 2 rounds by a past his prime Sanders.

    You be the judge. =)

    Golota also has heart and a mean streak. Unlike Wlad that has proven to back down in times of trouble. His confidence can be broken in the ring and it has by lesser fighters than Bowe who STOPPED him. You can keep bringing up two losses to Golota at the top of his game all you want. I raise you two KNOCKTHE ****OUTS from guys that are far worse than Golota ever was or is.

    wlad should not be judged by his worse performances and neither should bowe. if it's wlad from sanders fight vs bowe from golota fight then it's hardly prime vs prime is it?

    The Wlad fans brought up Bowes weak resume. But when Wlads resume chuck full of these kind of losses which is unusual for a top fighter...he is supposed to get a pass.... :rofl Not a chance.
