    Didn't Bowe WIN this fight?

    Any particular reason why you keep posting pics of fights that Bowe WON?

    Maybe you could post some pics of fights where a prime Bowe is getting KTFO? We already have plenty of such pics for Wlad...

    Very nice collection of paper titles.

    When has Wlad ever beaten the reigning HW champion, like Bowe did?

    Bowe never fought someone with Wlads power & vice versa.

    I'd give Wlad the edge in single shot power but Bowe had a wider variety of punches.

    Who do you think had the better chin & most heart?

    Bowe was one of those guys who despite being tall and rangy, was actually better up close than at range. He had a good jab and should have used it more against Holyfield (Bowe admits this especially in regards to the rematch). He was decent from the outside and had a vicious overhand right. But he was also a terrible defensive fighter at range. I thought he was a better defensive fighter up close, he'd try to slip and duck more shots, use angles.

    He was a very refined in-fighter and that's where he was best, despite his physical dimensions. His bodyshots and uppercuts up close did a number on Evander.

    I would lean towards Wlad as well ..That's tough but the way Bowe acted in the Golata fight I think Wlad has more heart ..Chin might go to Bowe but not by much ..I have never seen Wlad ***** out of a fight like Bowe did against Golata ..
