    Prime Riddick Bowe v Wladimir Klitschko. This would be very interesting indeed. I think Bowe could be a bit lazy at times and Wladimirs Chin not the best. In the end I think Wladimir would win a close but Unanimous Decision.

    Why do so many see it Wladdy over Big Daddy? Don't judge it off of Bowe's fights with the Foul Pole. I think Bowe spanks Vladdy to an 11th round TKO.

    First istinct is that Riddick that fougth Evander Holyfield the first time SLAUGHTERS Wladimir,


    but then on the other hand,

    Bowe wasn't much of an outside fighter. Had almost no right cross. Is shorter then Wlad. Shorter jab. Didn't have greatest defense. Didn't have one KO power.

    Wlad could pick him from outside, box him like Evander did the second time and possibly knock him out.

    WHO KNOWS??

    Bowe wins on the inside,
    Wlad EASILY on the outside.

    Bowe only beat Holyfield two out of three times because he was the bigger man.

    A hungry Bowe in his prime knocks Wlad out inside 8 rounds. Wlad looks unbeatable now due to the lack of competition. Bowe had a prime Holyrock (Holyfield) and a slew of other good heavyweights in his day and he pretty much dominated until he beat himself with laziness. The only fighter I see beating Bowe in his prime in his era was Lennox!

    Wlad wins easily on the outside? Bowe only an inch shorter than Wlad and it will take more than a jab to keep Bowe off of him. Bowe is no Lamon Brewster and he had on heck of a jab to give Vlad problems too. And he would land often on Wladdy boy often enough to cause an accumulation of damage in route to a TKO beat down.

    Wladimir can only fight who he is put in with, I think he seems to have learned alot since his losses to Purrity, Brewster & Sanders. I think he has developed into a decent boxer and would be able to grind out a points win over Bowe.

    I think Bowe thought the same; that's why he refused to face LL.

    Your right about that one. I think heart really seperates the two. Towards Bowes end he lost his heart, but the bull that Holyrock bought out stomps a mudhole in Wlad any day.
