Bowe did so much less in his career than giving credit for. People act like he was some amazing heavyweight, but really, he was just a big plodder, a poor man's Jarrell Miller.
The best wins he had are his 2 over the small Holyfield, who he also lost too. He got two beat downs from journeyman Golota, who got DQ twice for ******ity, won a robbery against Billy Zumbrun in a SD (embarrassing)
Had a KO win over Bruce Seldin, but so did Kevin "safety pin" Johnson. Beat Herbie Hide, but so did Mindaugas Kulikauskas (14-9-2), beat Larry Donald, a poor man's Eddie Chambers, beat Michael Dokes, who also lost to Louis Monaco (16-39-5) and beat Tony Tubbs in a close fight, a guy who people only rate cos Tyson beat him, that ended up losing 10 fights.
He also threw a belt in the bin to avoid Lennox Lewis. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, too many people overrate the resume's of these fighters from the past, and underrate modern guys, despite them being superior. If Rid**** Bowe were fighting now, he'd be having wars with guys like Christian Hammer.
