    wladimir gets knocked out early or in the late rounds.

    prime bowe was a great inside fighter something wladimir is not very strong at. on the outside they're evenly matched but bowe had a great chin and wlad's are average at best.

      Wlad has never faced anyone like Bowe. Bowe has great hand speed a brilliant uppercut and for a big guy very quick hands he also has a good jab. I see that wlad could out jab Bowe but if that started to happen Bowe would just bully his way onto the inside and throw that good uppercut. Bowe could get caught by Wlad as his defence wasn’t very good but Wlad would be reluctant to exchange with Bowe. Who ever said Bowe was soft obviously hasn’t seen the Goloto fights despite being in bad shape in both and getting the **** kicked out of him he still hung in there. Bowe was due to face mercer who was a big puncher but he lost to Ferguson.

        Wlad.

        as burt sugar (and many other boxing historians/experts) has eluded to, "bowe had the talent but never the determination to win" and thats the truth.

        after about the 5th round bowe would do a "zab judah" and become unfocused.

        wlad by knockout in roughly the 7th round.

          you could also say bowe had never faced anyone like wlad. I dont agree with you about bowe's hand speed. its was descent but nothing special. wlads hands are faster and his punches are straighter. bowe was the better inside fighter but I dont see him getting past wlads jab with his bad defense. as far as the golota fight goes golota has never been a finisher. he also let ruiz and grant off the hook when he dropped them and probably could have finished all 3 fighters if he wasnt such a mental midget

            Latter in his career this was true but not in the early part of his career.

              I disagree about the hand speed of a young bowe but i agree that wlads punches are straighter but that doesnt realy matter if he dont throw them.

                The first one to land a couple of big shots is the answer!!! Neither of them are renowned for granite chins. Bowe would need to get inside that 'I'm using an invisible yo-yo' defence of Wlad's

                    Bowe by early Ko

                    Wlads defence is the fact that he is reluctant to fight & has the reach to keep his oponents at arms length ,but Bowe is 6 ft 5 & has one of the best jabs of any Heavyweight ive ever seen & Helluva right hand behind it

                    Bowe would beat him at slugging & he would outbox Wlad either way Bowe would land something big in the fight & Wlad would be Koed ,Klitschko would have to lose his cautious approach against Bowe cause otherwise Bowe would walk through him but if he did lose his cautiious approach Bowe deffo Ko's him

                      if we are talking about a prime in shape rid**** bowe, i think he Knocks Wlad out any day of the week.

                      If we are talking about the flabby, plodding Bowe we often saw, i think Wlad jabs his head off all night and wins a UD.
