Bowe, Just what can he bring to the HW table?

Bowe vs. Tyson should fight for the fukk of it..

The only kind of table Bowe can make any sort of a contribution to is a buffet table.

Foreman is different story. When Foreman retired for the first time, he had taken very little punishment (the Lyle fight was the only fight where George received bad beating) and was in good shape unlike Bowe who was already completely shot fighter and probably brain damaged. Hell, Bowe probably took more punishment in Golota fights than George did in his whole career. Foreman was also a big puncher matched dubiously over nondescript opposition. Bowe has never been a big puncher, he was more of a boxer who used his jab to set his moves up. The last time I saw Bowe, his jab was painfully slow and his right hand was disturbingly inaccurate.

Extend you seemingly great boxing wisdom, 1st why is he shot, his weight says otherwise, 2nd how the hell do you know he is shot. lol another crap reply. Make no mistake about it, Riddick Bowe is shot and has no business in a boxing ring. He should not be fighting in the ring, he should not be training in the gym, he should not be exposed to further head trauma. In his trial when he kidnapped his family, his defense pleaded for leniency on the basis that his boxing career caused him severe brain injury. His deteriorated speech patterns back that up. When was the last time he looked good, seriously? The third Holyfield fight? Certainly not in the two fights with Andrew Golota or the subsequent comeback fights that resulted in public outcry to revoke his boxing license. In a state like Arkansas, where the standard boxing physical consists of getting your blood pressure taken, he could probably fight. Somewhere like Nevada or New York? Hehe, good luck.

food.......

Remember Buster Douglas's comeback? About like that.

Does anyone now why Bowe went to prison.. He treid to kidnap his wife & kids at knifepoint, the man blew up in weight in jail so he hasn't been looking after himself at all and as for mentally?

Foreman is different story.

I feel if this fighter is not too old, he still has a chance. When you are very tall and take very good care of your body and mind, you can win still. I feel a champion always has a championship heart forever. He knows what it takes to win a championship. George Foreman proved it is possible to comeback. I tend to agree with you.

Watch the second fight against Golota and you will see a fighter in Bowe who was at the end of his rope. Richard Steele stopped that fight on low blows and saved Bowe not only from losing the fight but getting damaged even more because even though I had Golota clearly winning the fight, all the point deductions Golota had in that fight might have made Golota even more desperate in the final 10th round and he could have attacked and really destroyed Bowe for good but Richard Steele saved Bowe from losing the fight and possibly his life.

Bowe did not take care of his body in prison and im sure it will hurt in the long run....

Lets at least see what he has got before we write him off, Bowe has alot of pride he wouldnt have comeback unless he thought he could contribute to an allready poor division. That's fair but all i'm saying is he looked done 8 years ago so i'm struggling to see what he can do now, i wish him all the best however.

To me Bowe was finished when he retired so i don't see what he can do now after all this time doing nothing, Foreman was a one off, not everybody can do what he did, even if you say there's not much out there to beat, i just don't see Bowe being a force in the division at all.

Bowe is shot. Period. End of story. Extend you seemingly great boxing wisdom, 1st why is he shot, his weight says otherwise, 2nd how the hell do you know he is shot. lol another crap reply.

OK guys Bowe has stepped back into the HW division after a long retirement, what can he now in his late thirties bring to the HW table. Bowe a former HW champion never fought Lewis much to the disapointment of many fans, and why? Im my oppinion, Lewis and Bowe didnt need each other they both realised it was a fight that they could both of lost with the looser being left in the wilderness without a title and a knickname of who needs him, therefore, for the fans sake they danced around the fight and made the usual excuses about money and contractual incompatabilities, we all know it was bullshit. But now lets talk about Bowe and his return to the HW division, whats the guy got if he has retained his skills and power, we will talk about his heart l8r. A year ago I heard he was walking around at 360lbs+, but back in training, now I see a chisled lookin 6"5' 250lbs fighter who appears to be seriious about returning to HW glory. If this guy has retained some of his skills and power he is more than capeable of rolling over any HW currently in the division with ease. Dont judge Bowe by his fights with the Pole Gallota as he was already disalusioned with the game and hadnt been training properly for months before those fights. My question stands, What do you think Bowe brings to the table now at his age?? Putting asses in the seats.
