    Bowe vs. Lewis???

    There are a couple different ways to look at this fight, first of which being that both men fought when they should have back in 93(right after Bowe won the title). Had this of happened I believe Bowe would have ripped Lewis up, Lewis still had a lot of growing to do and given the right matchup he could have been beeten by a few different fighters.
    The second would be prime for prime, if they could have both fought in there prime I believe it would have been a u pickem, what does everyone think?

      Sounds about right.
      '96 would have been a real "crossroads" fight. Bowe took a turn for the worse, & Lennox was starting to improve.
      I never know how to look at Lennox's fight with Mercer. Was he impressive for gutting out a tough fight, or unimpressive for struggling so much with Ray ?

              Rid**** Bowe had all the talent in the world and one night against Holyfield he looked great. I have a hard time picking him to beat Lewis at any time. Bowe was lazy and out of shape most of the time. My best guess would be that Lewis would find a home for the right hand and ko Fat Daddy late.

              What a fight it would have been back when Bowe first won the title.

                With Manny Lewis wins, without him he loses.

                  I fight I argued about in 93. Bowe lost all his skills going into the Golata fight. The lights and fame made him soft. Bowe always had a better jaw than Lewis. I think he would have connected and KOed Lennox, but we will never know.

                    Bowe had a 2 fight career. Outside of his two wins against Holyfield he did NOTHING.

                    Lewis beats him anythime with or without Manny

                    and trust mne Bowe's people thought Lewis would win also thats they went out of there way to stay as far from Lewis as possible.
