    that fight was kick ass! too bad Bowe didnt have more discipline, i would've wanted to see him against Tyson too.. but this was both guys in their prime, slugfest.

      The way Holyfield could stand and trade with a man that big and powerful still impresses the **** out of me.

            Notice the trainers for each fighter:

            Evander had legendary trainer George Benton and Rid**** had legendary trainer Eddie Futch. Two Prime HW Fighters being trained by legendary trainers going at it for the Title.

              Thought Bowe had it by a bit more than that, He was messing Evander up badly at times, any other man Evander's size taking punishment like that from a man Bowe's size would not have gone the distance. That said it was still competitive.

              Evander adapted well in the second fight, fought much smarter and proved he was capable of keeping his head at times, and not always brawling.

                Although I would suggest watching the entire fight, this is decent...

                  This was a good fight but Vitali vs Kevin Johnson was better
