Why had Lewis and Bowe never fought?

That was after he fought Golota.

Thanks, I knew he did join (and quit during basic training) but wasn't sure which fight he did it for...

The 1993 issues had been discussed many times, Bowe and Lewis didnt attempt to make their fight come to fruitution after, also blamed Don King and the referee who awarded Oliver McCall the victory over Lewis by prematurely stopping the fight. had Lewis been allowed to continue, there's no doubt he's gonna KO'ed McCall in '94.

Some Unanswered Questions had Lewis remained champion, will the WBC sanction Bowe-Lewis after what Big Daddy did by throwing their belt, will Bowe still ducked Lewis and go for the WBO belt held by Herbie Hide.

In '96, Golota was supposed to be a walk in a park for Bowe, and there are plans of staging a Bowe-Lewis fight in November, along with Tyson-Holyfield, so huge for boxing fans with these two events featuring the four best heavyweights. but after Bowe's struggle against Golota, end of story.
