    No, Bowe vacated his belt so he would not have to get in the ring with Lennox Lewis.
    He was flat out terrified.

            Lewis would have had Bowe's number, seriously. Lewis does everything better then Bowe.

                I'm not so sure. I think phsychologically he felt he'd get owned bacause of the amature days but if he was mentally confident I think he could have KO'd Lewis. He sure as hell had the power to. If Rahman could catch Lennox obviously Bowe could with his sick hand speed.

                    He could, but let's not forget, Lewis was out of shape and unfocused when he fought Rahman the first time. The second time...well, we all know what happened.

                    Against Bowe, Lewis would have been in his top shape and would have knocked him out late, imo.

                        sick hand speed?? bowe had average hand speed but did put his punches together very well and also mixed them up from head to body. lewis had the edge in hand speed and punching power. he likely would have repeated what he did in the olympics. bowe and newman obviously didnt have much confidence in beating him. anyway,,,,it would have been a good interesting fight while it lasted
