[D-MiZe]

I hope it happens for purely selfish reasons, I'll pop down there with a tenner and return with Bowe's autograph.

[ROSS CALIFORNIA]

Seeing as they're both in dire need of money Bowe vs Holyfield should get it on again.

haha Good idea. At least they wouldn't be able to hurt each other any more.

These guys were stupid with their money. They should have invested it in some kind of business they could run after boxing was over.

Riddick Bowe once joined the marines

After three days of training, overweight millionaire boxer Riddick Bowe left U.S. Marine Corps boot camp at Parris Island, S.C., ending his dream of becoming a Marine (SCORECARD, Feb. 10). Camp spokesman Major Rick Long said Bowe "was discharged because he had difficulty adapting to the recruit training regimen." SI's Rick Reilly "obtained" this dismissal report from Bowe's drill instructor, Sgt. Lawrence (Larry the Larynx) Gruff, detailing violations on Bowe's final day.
