i wouldnt like to say bowe had better skills foreman had the power both had the chins its too close to call i cant choose and i normally can pick a winner i cant here

Yeah This would be a tough one to call maybe the toughest.

Bowe could box better but Foreman wobbled Holyfield when he was like 45 so I think the power goes to Big George.

Bowe-Holmes would have been tough to call too

I'd actaully favour Bowe in this fight against Holy he was fooking AMAZING! Foreman was very powerful and strong, but Bowe could crack and was a big lad himself. Plus the fact in his prime Bowe's skills were better quite handily. Bowe UD.

I think Riddick Bowe was far superior in skill in comparison to Foreman, but he got hurt pretty easily against Lennox in the Olympics and seemed psyched out or scared to fight Lennox... I think once Foreman landed a hard punch on Riddick which he would because Riddick is a warrior that Riddick would get scared, and eventually pummeled by Foreman in the late rounds. Theoretically I could see Riddick jabbing and fighting from the outside which would tire Foreman out, and Riddick would win an easy 12 round decision, but Riddick wouldn't.

Bowe had an extremly short prime while Foreman arguably had two different primes during two different careers. Hard one to make.

who do people pick for big george vs larry holmes? would have been a good fight.
