    Two of the meanest mother ****ers to ever lace up the gloves and they come from the same school!

    Great fight and a tough one too. But back in the 80's (prime) Tyson loved a fight and was a genuine tough guy with a solid beard. Bowe has the tools to beat Mike, size and reach, a solid jab a big uppercut and a great inside game, it would be fairly easy to make a case for Rid**** but i like Tyson to hurt him a few times on route to a UD. Could be a bit like the Ruddock fights. Mike might have stopped him, he had the power to hurt the big man and was the finisher to get him outta there. Still this fight would have been epic had Bowe brought his A Material, which sadly he rarely did.

    Yeah im saying Tyson UD.

    BTW does anyone know of their history together? I know Tyson said from jail he liked Bowe and wouldnt wanna fight him and he said when they were in Brooklyn back in the day he was "ungentlemanly" to Bowe and felt bad about it. Did Tyson bully Big Daddy? Give em a beating? Anyone know anything?

    Jesus i sound like ****in catskills!!!

        Tyson's greatest tool in his prime was intimidation. Bowe would NOT in the slightest bit be intimdated. Bowe was much bigger and mentally tougher.

        I personally think tyson would maybe drop bowe around round 3 or so, but bowe would get up and tyson would be mentally defeated. Then bowe stops him around RD 9 or 10.

          Bowe already admitted fear of Tyson.

          Scared or not, Bowes D would be the death of him.

            I remember Bowe once saying that growing up in Brooklyn, they (him and his friends) knew to cross the street when they saw Tyson coming.

              Something along the lines of Tyson always had a bag of cookies and they called him "Bummy Ike" if Im thinking if the same interview.

                Bowe could simply not afford to take the shots he invariably would against Tyson, and itd have been fatal.

                      Bowe was quite an inside fighter for such a tall/big guy. But, he ate left hooks in there, and a prime Tyson's left hook would have been the difference.
