I actually think Wlad would beat Bowe. Bowe was not hard to hit, and Wlad would be able to jab and grab him to a win.
The only Bowe that would have had a shot would have been the one trained by Eddie Futch any version of Bowe that shows up with out Futch in his corner gets starteched !
Bowe was a beast on the inside, he'd tear wlad a new ******* if he tried his snorefest jab and grab tactics.
Who has Wlad beat that makes you think he has a chance against Bowe?? LOL, his resume is a fking joke, his best win is a LHW in Byrd, and an extremely overrated cruiserweight in Haye. Wlad is so damn overrated by white people, and europeans.
I know the best version of Bowe imo was with Futch he worked with him in one of theHolyfield fights not sure if it was the 1st one or the 3rd one
At his very best, Bowe would beat Wlad I think. But "Bowe's best" was so shortlived, and Wlad has been so consistent that it almost seems unreasonable to pitch Bowe's best (a few months) against Wlad's best (about 8 years).
Bowe fought fire with fire with evander holyfield. Wladimir doesnt fight anything like holyfield, and hits alot harder.
I am Canadian/Jamaican wtf do I care about what the whites and Euros think? Secondly, fights are won by styles...not who you beat in the past. Bowe holds 2 wins over Holyfield. While great wins, doesn't mean he beats Wlad. Wlad didn't throw his belts in the trash to avoid a threat.
his prime of 1 fight against a small guy who Bowe was not skilled enough to fight tall against.. yeah that one.. definitely fighting a small Holyfield would look like a fight against a 6'6 245 pound Wlad... because Bowe lunging in to get close and getting tagged then being wrapped up spells success. Bowe avoided Lewis like the plague in his prime for a reason the very same reason an average Golota made Bowe look bad twice Bowe could not fight well against a skilled big. Bowe is one of the most overrated boxers on these boards he accomplished two things of note one is throwing away his title to duck lewis and the other is losing to holyfield 1 of three times they fought. that resume must make him a legend right next to Ruiz who Holy only beat in one of three fights as well :hi: there is one difference is I guess Ruiz had bigger ***** as he never threw away his belt to avoid a challenger.
No **** styles are made by styles, and not who you beat captain obvious. But fights are also made by levels, and who on Wlad's resume is even close to Bowe's level? None. There's level to this ****-TBE
