    Wrong.

    Golota just paid back with interest the low blows he got from Bowe.

    For the rematch I agree, although Golota was ahead by a lot, he was suffering a lot with that nasty cut and took some bombs himself. Maybe that big right Bowe landed in the corner during the 9th gave Golota the extra "motivation" for Golota to pull a Golota.

    But in the first fight, Bowe was just getting the **** kicked out of him. He wasn't landing heavy shots in return, and Golota wasn't cut and didn't appear to be tired either. He was just a headcase

    That's just not true. Golota didn't decide to foul out because he was trying to catch a late night movie with his wife, he fouled out because he couldnt get Bowe to concede. Golota always quit when his opponents showed resistance even when he was far ahead and he was but Bowe wasn't quitting and he was fighting back. That's when Golota always melted down.

    What does tyson have to do with this? To be clear that's not true either. See ruddock Ribalta thomas tubbs Tucker douglas and so on. Tyson was clearly not of fighters mind when he emerged from prison but he sure was prior to going in

    Simple.

    He quit fighting against Douglas, Holy, Lewis, Williams and McBride. Oh, he took his punishment well enough, but he definitely quit fighting.

    Spare me the garbage excuses about he was shot, because I couldn't give a fuk. He signed to fight, took the money, then quit.

    i always thought his brain was fried after the third holyfield fight.

    ergo fresh golota caught a shopworn bowe by surprise in '96.

    Tyson quit against Douglas? He dropped him in the 8th and almost got his head knocked off in the 10th after an epic back and forth in the 9th . Don't thjnk he quit. Yes he did quit against those other fighters.

    Like I said he quit " fighting " against Douglas, just walked in, got hit, stepped back, walked in again, got hit, rinse and repeat. Well whoopdee doo he threw one meaningful punch in the 8th.

    I already said in the previous post his courage in taking his beatings is without question, but the guy was a mental midget, and as a lot of self appointed experts on ESB will never tire of telling you. Fighting is 80% mental and 20% physical.

    Poor defense.

    Never fought enough top-tier fighters.

    Can't be considered best H2H.

    Pretty much sums it up.

    Also, Golota was a frighteningly ordinary fighter. It is just shocking that he would give this phenom that was Bowe such trouble. In the end, Bowe just wasn't proven quite enough to get such high accolades.

    Golota tattooed Bowe for good. If that crazy Pole could have kept his head together better, he would have won both encounters with ease, without fouling. Alas.

    I don't rate Bowe all that highly at all.

    If if if ..

    If Foreman didn't get stopped by Ali he would have won.

    Golota fought Bowe and didn't have an easy time with him in any way shape or form.

    He quit because he gave it everything he had and Bowe was still there in front of him coming on stronger and stronger.
    So in what alternate reality could he have beaten him 'with ease' ?

    I must say you are the worst poster ive ever come across.

    Golota clearly had an above average skill-set and was a well rounded boxer with a hall of fame trainer in his corner.

    What has happened to you?
