Video: The tale of Lennox Lewis & Riddlck Bowe

Like Rummy said we all just have to speculate but I think Lewis would of avoided his power shots and out boxed him in a close MD but I am not 100% sure bro.

Would have been an epic fight but oh well.....Thank you back room politicans and greedy promotors nut

 

There was no low ball offer. It was a mandatory fight you stupid donkey.

 

:nono
Calm down bro.
No need to call that AZE Crack a Donkey....He just has a different view than most people:smooch

 

Didn't Golota QUIT against the ever so dangerous Michael Grant?

Lol...

 

:yikes
CST even when Lewis was still fine tuning his style he would, IMO, outbox Bowe and avoid his power shots:hey

No easy fight for either guy is all I am saying:good

 

He couldn't avoid the power shots of MaCall longer than 2 rounds.

Bowe was 10 levels above MaCall.

Lewis is lucky he faced a dog pound of mutts during that time the likes of Fortune , Jackson , Butler... When he upped his level again against Mercer , he was beaten from pillar to post.

 

True:thumbsup

 

I agree about MaCall being way lesser of a fighter but we will never know:yep:deal

 

Check that again The ludicrous "offer" made to Lennox was mind games

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Mostly agree with this.

Bowe feasted on cans and featherfists for most of his career.

He took on Holyfield because he enjoyed a major size advantage.

When he had to fight Lewis he browned his shorts and vacated.

He only fought Golota because he believed Golota was in his words, "a bum". A bum that gave him permanent damage from the beatings he gave him.

Lewis on the other hand could have some shaky performances against sub-par opposition. But when he was on song, he was devastating to the best of them.

To be fair if Bowe caught Lewis on an off-night he could win.

But best for best, prime for prime, Lewis starches Bowe cold.

Lewis' resume tells the story.

And Bowe knew it too.

:bolt

:deal

 

Nice
I was never a fan of Lewis until he got Manny in his corner and then I still did not like him but could not deny his skill set. Bowe always had power in his favor but just like Tyson power only goes so far when you face an opposition with superior boxing skills:bbb

 

Lewis had a better jab, better defense, was better on the outside, and a higher ring IQ.
