    I understand that he needs the money and everything but I see the real possibility of another Jerry Quarry ending here.

    Naw....... Bowe has fought nothing but bums and stiffs since his useless comeback in 2004.......... Plus, Bowe only fights every blue moon, so therefore he gets plenty of time to fully recover from his publicized sparring matches he calls pro fights....... Bowe has become a sorry-ass Mother........
    :patsch:shock:

    Guy has a better resume then any fighter in heavyweight division. 43 wins 33 by KO with only 1 defeat.. and even that coming at hands of peak Holyfield.

    Makes Klitschko's look bad. ;)

    thats another good point, dude has taken alot of punishment but he has only 1 lost, you can't deny someone from fighting with a resume like that, plus his no going to choose a fight with a big heavy puncher or a guy 17 years yonger like Hopkins did.

    BULL****! You can to deny a sorry mother a license if the fighter is no longer capable of training and passing a routine physical because he shows up to the doctor office looking like "The Blob" and butchering the English language in a verbal sense.......

    hey men im just saying, i saw 60 year old Saoul Mamby fight live in the cayman islands in an official sanctioned bout, i dont see bowe having any problems being allowed to fight.
     
  8. Bowe should not be allowed to fight. He was never very good in the first place. Dr. Iron Fist would have smashed him on his best day.

    Ironic as it may be, a 60 year old Mamby has no fat on his ass and still speaks well enough to understand... And, I understand he was matched with a "Softie" or "D" grade opponent so he'd do okay...... I think he won.?.?

    Bowe is a fat slob who mumbles and is merely looking for a payday based on his fading skills and name....... I say: "License Revoked!"

    I think he should be allowed to box, when he meets the physical demands.
    But I know I won't watch him... He's not gonna be a shadow of what he was before, and is never gonna be able to take on a top fighter in the division.
    But there are a lot of tomato cans he can still beat, so let the man make a living... It's better than selling autographed gloves and photo's of his glory days from his camper.

    Yeah, right. Vitali lost to Byrd and Bowe beat Golota twice, records tell the whole story.

    So true! If you only look at records then Yakup Saglam (24-0, 21KO) is a formidable heavyweight, and Evander Holyfield (42-10, 27KO) a fringe contender :think So don't just look at records!

    Bowe is allowed to fight? The guy is seriously slurring his words now, there's no way he should be able to pass a decent physical examination.
