Riddick Bowe: "Klitschko called me Grandpa. Grandpa’s gonna tap that ass."

I see what you mean but don't forget that both brothers fought the generally deemed #3 heavy in their respective last fights.

There's a difference between taking an easier match up after a big fight and fighting a 44 year old who hasn't fought in 3 years.

There is a huge difference. The division sucks, that is no fault of the Klits. But fighting and old, slow, inactive fighter would be criminal.

If Bowe comes back and knocks out Eddie Chambers and Tony Thompson (the two best American active HW's) then he can claim to be worthy of a shot at the K's. Chances of this Bowe doing that are slim to none. I'm not sure he even has a license or would get one to fight in the UK even. They refused Botha who is younger than Bowe.
