Do you rate Ken Norton ahead of him?

I think Norton should be ranked ahead based on who he beat, he beat top guys like Ali, Quarry and Young. Some good fighters like Cobb and maybe Bobick, although the guy accomplished much more as an amateur. Gave Holmes a very tough fight and ran him very close.

Rid**** Bowe finished his career with a record of 43-1 with two wins over a prime Evander Holyfield as well as a few other good wins. Although his lack of dedication in the end, cost him his world class status, Bowe still had a great career and deserves to be compared with the great heavyweights of all time.

In your opinion, where does Rid**** Bowe rank among the ATG heavyweights?

Here's a list from Boxrec: http://boxrec.com/ratings.php?countr...us=E&SUBMIT=Go

are you kidding me? the only good heavyweight he beat was holyfield who was much smaller than him. bowe avoided guys that could punch like the plague

[MANGLER]

He doesn't.

[RightCross94]

Head to head he is right up there

But all time standing, he's top 20 or 15

Where the frick is Archie Moore in Boxrec's top 25??!

Bowe loses a lot of points for shamelessly ducking Lennox. Not top 25.

Man this is a tough question to answer for me. I think Bowe had the greatest skill set of any heavyweight in history. I think his prime was cut short by his laziness. When he was prime there was nothing prettier to watch for my money.

So, skill level top ten. Accomplishments would be somewhere around 25 I guess.
