Send in your sub 200 pound man to beat prime Bowe

Since the title changed from "small HW" to "HW under 200lbs" I'll go with Holyfield (who beat Bowe once), Louis, & I'd give Young (who I believe weighed under 200lbs some time on his career) on his best day, a good chance to beat Bowe.

 

Bowe would flatten them both within a couple of rounds. You need a granite chinned fighter who is fleet of foot, tall and has decent reach.

 

Tunney never saw action.

 

I know that, I was just making fun since Tunney stands no chance whatsoever

 

Tunney doesn't beat Bowe even if they fight a million times

 

Only if they both fight against Bowe at the same time

 

Joe Frazier from FOTC (205lbs) with Eddie Futch in his corner and Bowe's tapes to prepare himself.

 

... at the weigh in ...

 

Drain 205lb Holyfield down to 199.9 to make weight. During the lead up to the fight, regularly send large orders of pizzas and chicken wings over to Bowe's camp as sabotage. Have Holyfield fight using the strategy he did during their second fight. Problem solved.

Or for fun, send in Marciano and see if he truly is the giant slayer some guys on boxing forums make him out to be.

 

I don't know if Tunney could pull it off but that's a nice analysis of Gene and Bowe's abilities

 

Yeah I seem to remember that. As soon as I said Holyfield he probably went “ oops”

 

Well, you're half right.

Vander was faster, more agile, more athletic than Tunney, as well as being bigger, stronger, tougher... And he barely squeaked out a decision in three fights. Ain't happening.

 

You didn't get the joke. Hide was chinny that is why I called for "granite-chinned" Herbie (who didn't exist).

Futch was not a fool. He would advise Frazier to avoid Bowe.
