Riddick Bowe, James Toney, Chris Byrd, Lamon Brewster, Ray Mercer talk boxing

Before I watch this, how many of these esteemed gentlemen are actually intelligible?

 

Bowe reveals all in sensational interview.
Or sits on the couch with other punch-drunk ex-fighters.

 

Ok, I'll check it out to see Suave James Toney. He's always a charmin interviewee, him and Debonair Leon Spinks.

 

Actually I think that's a good reason NOT to bother watching it.

 

Why? Because it's predictable? Or because you think Bowe was responsible for all the ducking?

 

I think both.

 

Yeah.
I definitely think it's predictable. I don't think Bowe was wholly responsible. Bad management decisions on both sides.

 

Bowe says Herbie Hide was the hardest puncher he ever fought. I can believe that. From memory he had Bowe on ***** street with single punches. That didn't happen often.

 

Was this an amateur fight?

 

Rock Newman was probably the biggest factor in that fight never being made.

 

Sorry, I meant Hide.

 

Initially, yes, certainly.

 

Yeah. That seems right. Hide has exceptional speed/power and don't think Bowe saw many of those punches coming, nor was he in great condition to take punishment.
Fortunately (for Bowe) Hide was flawed/weak in so many other areas he didn't take long to wilt.
Credit to both of them for that fight.
