Wladimir Klitschko vs. Riddick Bowe.

Wlad KO.

 

Bowe is the most overrated boxer of all time, Golota absolutely destroyed him.

 

Fucth trained Bowe how to throw the jab. Futch thought Ken Norton how to out-jab Ali. Bowe Had a great jab.

Some stats

Bowe threw less jabs but landed more against Holyfield than Wlad agasint Sam Peter.

Bowe vs Holy - 132 / 248 @ 53% connect rate

Wlad vs Peter - 129 / 379 @ 34% connect rate

Since Peter was easy to hit and Holy was a hard to hit ATG , the stats make it pretty obvious that Bowe had the better jab.

Wlad would struggle badly to hit lateral moving Holyfield with a jab , whereas Bowe would liley hit Peter with every jab he threw.

Without the jab going , Wlad can't / won't release his right hand . Thats why he clinches so much. If he failed keep Povetkin off him for every minute of the fight , then how would he keep Bowe off him?
This fight is all wrong for Clinchko.

Bowe made Golota quit twice. Both times he folded under the pressure.

 

Wlad was deducted a point for too much leaning on Haye.

Haye is a back foot fighter and is terrible on the front foot. Tells to all you need to know. Haye would never have stepped in the ring with somebody like Bowe. We know that after he bottled out of two fights with Fury

 

Hahaha it wasn't pressure, it was rigged as hell, Golotas family was probably threatened so he had to quit

 

Golota was beating Bowe. I would pick Wlad to KO him

 

Golota
