When you have to preface a fighter with.. the "X" who beat "Y"... that in itself speaks volumes. It's not the same as talking about a fighter's prime, which all fighters begin and end.

I watched prime Bowe put in an outstanding effort against Holyfield... but also watched prime Bowe put in several pitiful efforts.

If there was a trophy for "doing the least with the most".... Riddick Bowe would win hands down.
