This is a matchup i NEVER get bored of thinking about because it could have been amazing. Bowe said to Lennox after the Olympics "I'll see you in the pro's" but it never happened. Apparently they were going to fight after the third Holyfield fight as Lennox interupted Bowes post fight press conference but Bowe just called him a ***** and Lennox walked away. The chemistry for this bout was perfect because Lennox beat him in the Olympics but Bowe excelled far more as a professional faster than Lennox did. Both guys were giants and both could box perfectly. Bowe proved his toughness with his fights against a prime Holyfield. I think for the first few rounds this fight would have been a battle of the jabs and one-twos. A fight to see who can control the ring. I think they would have both been cautious as both had the power to knockout most heavyweights. Although saying that Bowe may have come flying out because as we all know that Lennox was a slow starter in most of his fights. Either way i have no idea who would have won this matchup to be honest. Both fighters were even in alot of ways. As a fan i say Lennox but as a boxing observer at that particular time when Lennox was going to fight him i would say Bowe and only because he had more world class ring experience than Lennox did but i state ONLY at that point.
