        Fast Eddie would cause him lots of problems in my opinion and a fatboy like Solis or Arreola would be very dangerous for him as well. He would stand no chance against either Klitschko and if he went to Germany to fight he would probablylose a UD to Valuev. Haye vs. Moorer would be very interesting, who knows how good Haye is, until he steps into the ring against a non-circus freak, non-semi retired HW, no one knows. He vs. Adamek would be a war, but I think he takes Adamek. He was a good fighter, not a great one. Prime Bowe would probably be just about even with this Vitali. Vitali's slown down, reflexes and power dont look quite the same, but this Wlad would probably kill Bowe. Wlad Klitschko is a bad bad man.

          He would very EASILY be the best HW of this era not named Klitschko.

            I imagine that'd be the general consensus if that fight had been made. Bowe would have to be careful tho because Wlad is not a guy to take punches from. His jab is also good enough to give Bowe problems early on.

              He would get KTFO by the Klitschkos, the rest of the guys he can beat.

                The better question would be, how would the 90's Bowe fair against today's heavies?
                agreed on both parts

                IMO moorer would have cracked the top 10 off and on, nothing more, and never top 5

                bowe, more interesting

                  ehh another case of anyone who fought in the past being "higher caliber"

                  moore wasnt explosive and had one of the lamest/most frustrating to watch title wins in history

                    Moorer has an underrated jab himself

                      He would have whooped Haye's ass though without a doubt.

                      Moorer was a damn good fighter who won his first title at LHW and he generally gets underrated because he is the punchline to the George Foreman story and also because he is quite simply, a real @sshole of a person.
                      you must identify to him a lot then
