They did the same with Mike Tyson who never beat any great boxer in his era. But they hyped this guy up like he was the most destructive force in history. They were about to do the same with the bum, Wilder, until Fury battered him and destroyed their ego, hence the endless circus with ridiculous conspiracies.
Now you have a guy like Rid**** Bowe who was just overrated like Tyson and was Wilder before Wilder when it comes to ducking punchers and fighting bums. But I'd give Bowe props for beating Holyfield (something Wilder never did). And that's the only solid name Bowe beat in his career.
Bowe's era had Lennox Lewis, Mike Tyson, Moorer, Ruddock, Tua, Ibeabuchi, Mercer, Tommy Morrison, Oliver McCall, Bruno, et al who are all big punchers. How did Bowe escape fighting all these guys? He ducked all of them and cherrypicked an Eurobum in Golota, who ended his career.
Honestly, I don't even think Bowe belongs in the hall of fame. He was just another overrated yank boxer. All the top 5 heavyweights today would stop him but he probably has a chance against Wilder.
