Lol sure, it is why he did not fight any top puncher and avoided lewis like a *****. Bowe is not even in the top 3 record or h2h.
I suppose if you were making the award based on work done in the decade, like Time Magazine's person of the decade, you would have to give it to Holyfield. Tyson did some of his key work in the 80s, and of course Lewis did some of his in the 00s.
Bowe was never afraid of Lewis, so stop talking crap. The fight never happened in 92 due to money issues. And if Lewis would have gotten KO'd by McCall, they would have fought in 94. That's not impossible, but I highly doubt it, and I say that despite being one of the biggest Tyson fans. Tyson's prime was when he was with Rooney, from 86 to 88. After he fired Rooney, he never evolved one bit. His skills started to diminish. No doubt 91 Tyson was better than 96 Tyson, but not by much. 91 Tyson is at best about 70% of 88 Tyson, and 96 Tyson is at best about 60% of 88 Tyson. Both 91 and 96 Tyson lacked 88 Tyson's defense.
This content is protected chicken bowe did throw the belt to the trash to avoid defending against lewis because lennox kicked his ass in the amateurs and he knew that there is no way that he could have won this fight. Of course he said a lot of fantasies about money etc. Lennox lewis was much better than chicken Bowe
Bowe admitted that he let Newman make all his decisions when all the 90`s champs got around a table on stage a couple of years ago ripping into AJ for reportedly ducking Wilder, Bowe wasn`t very bright.
Golota beat the crap out of Bowe, Futch wouldn`t train Bowe for the rematch because he was in such bad condition in the first fight and Bowe couldn`t even get off the floor aftder getting hit in the balls in the rematch becaus of the beating he took, his speech was alarming at the presser after that bout.
Lewis didn't kick any ass, it was a premature stoppage. And an amateur fight is irrelevant when compared to a pro fight. Not in 92. Lewis became the complete package after he teamed up with Steward. If they would have fought in the early 90's, Bowe would have won. If they would have met in the second part of the 90's, Lewis would have won.
