    I'd still classify that as a duck. While I don't think Bowe feared Lewis he did allow his manager to make the choice to low ball Lewis and he accepted it.

    When the shoe was on the other foot and Lewis was WBC champion and Bowe had no belts, Lewis offered them 60/40 split, no low balling, no BS, just a fair offer and that says a lot about both fighters teams.

    The title of the thread is “ was Bowe’s chin really tested ? “

    NOT “ was Bowe’s chin better than George Chuvalo’s ?”

    Surviving 45 professional fights without being stopped and taking punches from Holyfield, Golata, Hide, Gonzalez and Cooper was enough to answer the question.... Yes, it was really tested.
