View Full Version : Riddick Bowe b-hop21183 03-30-2005, 12:53 AM Anyone see him on Best Damn Sports Show calling Toney a bum and saying he could take both klitsckos at the same time Dude 03-30-2005, 01:00 AM I bet he could take both of them at the same time. He must've learned that in jail. Let Snoop Dogg produce it and here we have another heavy weight attraction. dingus 03-30-2005, 02:13 AM Anyone see him on Best Damn Sports Show calling Toney a bum and saying he could take both klitsckos at the same time I almost fell out of my chair when he said the fan man incident was a set up to help Holyfield win. joeboxer 03-30-2005, 02:36 AM I bet he could take both of them at the same time. He must've learned that in jail. Let Snoop Dogg produce it and here we have another heavy weight attraction. great post you sick ass **** SacTown1 03-30-2005, 03:04 AM Anyone see him on Best Damn Sports Show calling Toney a bum and saying he could take both klitsckos at the same time Here are some disturbing quotes from the show: John Salley: Who do you want to fight, you gotta fight one of the Klitschko brothers, which one do you want? Bowe: Don't make me no different Salley: No, gotta make a difference, because you.... Bowe: Well i'll tell you what you, why don't you madmaonhormanrrhrry...." Could anybody understand what he was sayin'?!?! Riddick was my hero when I was about 12, but the guy needs to go back home, crack open another case of twinkies, and retire 4 good, I love the guy but he's tore-back in a bad way Anjew 03-30-2005, 05:29 AM Both Klitchkos would trash him now. So would Golota, once more. stix 03-30-2005, 06:28 AM Here are some disturbing quotes from the show: John Salley: Who do you want to fight, you gotta fight one of the Klitschko brothers, which one do you want?

Riddick was my hero when I was about 12, but the guy needs to go back home, crack open another case of twinkies, and retire 4 good, I love the guy but he's tore-back in a bad way :biggthump 'CRACK OPEN ANOTHER CASE OF TWINKIES' That's funny as hell, man. But sadly, it's also the truth. Bowe's got no business goin' back into the ring. His new handle will be 'mush brain' :banghead: guru 03-30-2005, 08:44 AM bowe's comeback will end up like buster douglas's.... as soon as he fights a live body it'll be: L KO1 Kimmy 03-30-2005, 09:24 AM I`d give Bowe a chance against Wlad because of Wlad being chinless, Toney is too small for Bowe so he would probably beat him. However, i think Vitiali would destory Bowe. Bowe is made for him! dansweeney 03-30-2005, 09:34 AM I`d give Bowe a chance against Wlad because of Wlad being chinless, Toney is too small for Bowe so he would probably beat him. However, i think Vitiali would destory Bowe. Bowe is made for him! at this point ya, a prime bowe would have destroyed vitali inside of 3 rounds jack_the_rippuh 03-30-2005, 09:38 AM He's doing exactly what George Foreman did when he came back, he's saying he could beat "the man". George Foreman said he could beat Tyson, why can't Riddick Bowe say he can beat the Klitschkos? guru 03-30-2005, 09:43 AM he can say that, he just cant do it.... foreman actually was a great fighter before coming back, KO'ing frazier twice and norton... bowe was a ***** fighting bums like dokes, fergeuson, hide, mathis after he won the title... bowe's comeback will more like buster douglas's than foreman's... and i havent even mentioned how screwed up he is in the head.... jack_the_rippuh 03-30-2005, 09:45 AM But he wouldn't have beaten Tyson. Tyson would have knocked the old guy out. Kimmy 03-30-2005, 09:48 AM Bowe is much better than Buster Douglas on the comback trail. I think he`ll break into the top 20 or even 15. Then lose to a good top ten opponent, like a Rahman or a McCline! guru 03-30-2005, 09:49 AM it would have been interesting to see... foreman could take a punch and he could give one, but so could tyson... i dont think it would have been a huge mismatch though... foreman did KO moorer and gave holy a good scrap... BoxingPromoter 03-30-2005, 09:51 AM he can say that, he just cant do it.... foreman actually was a great fighter before coming back, KO'ing frazier twice and norton... bowe was a ***** fighting bums like dokes, fergeuson, hide, mathis after he won the title... bowe's comeback will more like buster douglas's than foreman's... and i havent even mentioned how screwed up he is in the head.... I'll remind you that Bowe did beat 4 time heavyweight Champion Evander Holyfield twice. As far as Bowe making a successful comeback, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he has a chance until someone proves him otherwise. Kimmy 03-30-2005, 09:55 AM Yes but when he beat Holyfield they were both different fighters, relatively young and close to their primes. This is a different situation now! guru 03-30-2005, 09:56 AM yeah, thats one fight.... he never again looked that good and never fought another quality fighter other than holy and he never fought someone with power.... he avoided fighting lewis, moorer, mercer, tyson, ruddock, and foreman, yet all of them some how managed to fight each other... Kid Achilles 03-30-2005, 12:05 PM Foreman, even as an old man, had a great shot at beating Tyson. His advantages over Tyson were numerous: height, reach, chin, strength, power, and balls. He had every quality neccesary to beat Tyson. BoxingPromoter 03-30-2005, 12:39 PM Foreman, even as an old man, had a great shot at beating Tyson. His advantages over Tyson were numerous: height, reach, chin, strength, power, and balls. He had every quality neccesary to beat Tyson. Your right Kid Achille, but we will never know. IMO this is the greatest fight that never happened. But we still have Holy-Foreman, that was one heluva fight! :boxing: bigrealmike 03-30-2005, 01:20 PM I don't understand how people go about measuring when a boxer's "peak" is. In the case of Bowe, one has to define it as being over a very short period if one wants to believe that he was a great heavyweight. The same argument is always made on Mike Tyson's behalf . Kimmy 03-30-2005, 04:39 PM I don't understand how people go about measuring when a boxer's "peak" is. In the case of Bowe, one has to define it as being over a very short period if one wants to believe that he was a great heavyweight. The same argument is always made on Mike Tyson's behalf . Bowe`s peak was probably between 1991 and 1992. After the first Holyfield fight he was never as good. He had a few decent performances here and there ( he destoryed Dokes better than anyone and he was particularly good in dismantling Jorge Gonzales ) but he never repeated the form of that first Holyfield fight. Tyson`s peak ended the day he left Kevin Ronney. He was never the same again, not even close. All the teachings of Rooney and work put into Tyson by both Cus D`Amrto and Rooney were flushed down the ****ter! Tyson just got worse and worse and worse etc.. bigrealmike 03-30-2005, 05:12 PM Defining a "peak" over a short period allows someone to throw out any evidence that doesn't fit in with their prejudices. Thus, Tyson wasn't found out by Douglas and Holyfield , he just "peaked" early. Bowe wasn't humiliated by a good-to-medium heavyweight (Golota), he just "peaked" at 25 rather than 30 like most heavyweights. So I don't really like this argument. Using it, I could argue that W. Klitschko was a great fighter in the late 90s, because he looked great early on, but he unfortunately "peaked" at the point before he fought anyone who was any good. snap the jab 03-30-2005, 05:16 PM Anyone see him on Best Damn Sports Show calling Toney a bum and saying he could take both klitsckos at the same time lol both klitschkos at the same time, that's funny i like clever trash talking like that - it's just when it gets to James Toney levels when it starts to get annoying Kimmy 03-30-2005, 07:40 PM W. Klitschko was a great fighter in the late 90s, because he looked great early on, but he unfortunately "peaked" at the point before he fought anyone who was any good. Wlad isn`t in this catagory. See, Wlad isn`t a shot fighter. He is still very much in his prime he just hasn`t, and never has had, a decent chin! He only got found out when a rampant Corrie Sanders jumped on his ass and KO`ed him. I believe if Derrick Jefferson had tired the same thing he might have achieved a simular result. A fighter`s peak isn`t just determined by their physical abilities. Its also their mental attitude and focus, the total package. Bowe in 1992 was at his very best, as was Tyson in 1988. After these times Bowe and Tyson were still world class fighters, they just weren`t gonna be as good as they were in 1992 and 1988 respectively. riz 03-30-2005, 07:42 PM lol both klitschkos at the same time, that's funny i like clever trash talking like that - it's just when it gets to James Toney levels when it starts to get annoying the problem with james is he talks a lot, n i really dont understand y he getting the shot against ruiz tru theres not much otheres but gyz like baarret deserve it more toney fought twice at HW once against a 38 year old holyfield (roughly) and against tyrell booker who ive never heard of this fight against ruiz will determine whether he can stay in the HW division as a serious contednro Tha Greatest 03-30-2005, 07:53 PM There's a difference between George Foreman and Riddick Bowe Foreman would always give the beatings Riddick Bowe always took them..... Foreman was perfectly fine when he came back and he still is Riddick Bowe reminds me of Meldrick Taylor... abdiel2k3 03-30-2005, 07:54 PM ya i saw him that was plain stupid he thinks he can take on both klitschkos in the same nite i doubt he could even beat wlad toney would even work his old fat ass over Kimmy 03-30-2005, 07:56 PM Riddick Bowe reminds me of Meldrick Taylor... Yeah....he is looking that way isn`t he. Its a shame, i think the Holyfield fights coupled with the Golota beatings seriously damaged his brain. His reflexes must be effected too, only when he goes up in competition will we know to what extent. He is still able to blow away a few undersized bums but it will catch up with him! Enayze 03-30-2005, 08:24 PM at this point ya, a prime bowe would have destroyed vitali inside of 3 rounds Why do idiots keep claiming that these and those fighters would destroy Vitali in 3 or 4, when Vitali has never even touched canvas, let along been knocked out. A prime Bowe would fall to a prime Vitali, no way he would handle his style, and the punches he would land wouldn't drop Vitali. If Lewis couldn't Bowe sure as hell wouldnt. bigrealmike 03-31-2005, 07:23 AM A fighter`s peak isn`t just determined by their physical abilities. Its also their mental attitude and focus, the total package. Bowe in 1992 was at his very best, as was Tyson in 1988. After these times Bowe and Tyson were still world class fighters, they just weren`t gonna be as good as they were in 1992 and 1988 respectively. Bowe and Tyson should be judged by the same criteria as everyone else. If they take a fight before they are 30-35 years old or so, then they should be judged by the result of that fight. It is easier for me to believe that Bowe was not as good as everyone thought than it is for me to believe that the laws of aging affected him differently from the way they affect everyone else. masterdirector 03-31-2005, 08:20 AM Bowe is a death in the ring waiting to happen. Toney would ****ing kill Bowe. Bowe sucks. I mean damn, Golota really was beating him both times. Oh, he faked that whole low blow thing. Yeah, Golota definitely really landed low blows, but they didn't hurt Bowe that bad unless he wasn't wearing protective gear. Bowe's best bet is to keep fighting bums until Joe Mesi is back, then have a Buffalo showdown with him for a nice payday. After Bowe knocks Mesi out, Bowe can retire. It'd be Bowe's best chance, but won't happen. masterdirector 03-31-2005, 08:25 AM Bowe and Tyson should be judged by the same criteria as everyone else.

It is easier for me to believe that Bowe was not as good as everyone thought than it is for me to believe that the laws of aging affected him differently from the way they affect everyone else. The style of a fighter has an effect on their longevity. As well as the age they started, etc. Most explosive in-fighters like Tyson don't last all that long. Cuties can have longer "primes" because they can hold onto that elusiveness longer. In-fighters get hit more just to land shots a lot of times. baard 03-31-2005, 08:46 AM "Oh, he faked that whole low blow thing"?!?!?! Damn man, have you never been hit low?Whether you are wearing protection or not, three or four blows like the ones that Golota fired are sure to have an effect on your nuts! |
