Can you imagine what Riddick Bowe would do to Joe Louis?

Yeah I think Riddick Bowe would have still grown to be an abnormally large man anyhow.

In fact there is some evidence that caloric restrictions can lead to a taller+leaner body type than the shorter+thicker type that high calorie diets lead to.

The ancient Spartans were first to employ such a diet to their soldiers in the hopes of producing taller more athletic soldiers.

Of course I think diet has mcuh to do with the overall size but I have a feeling Riddick was gonna be around 6'5" tall anyway!! Just maybe not so hefty!! Or chubby.

So maybe it would have been better if Bowe had been born in 30's where he would have the hunger and desire to realise his potential.

He'd run a risk of not having the pedigree and Olympic background. Also given the time he'd probably be drafted after WWII. If he didn't flunk out of boot again, off course. If he just climbed into the time machine thread though he could just walk into 1930 his fat jolly disinterested self maybe Who knows.

Now you are taking this thread too seriously that it is giving you a headache.

I take little too serious Especially when it comes to Conn being dismissed and called a bum while a obese shot Dokes is not for Bowe. It's better than f'kn Disney world while on blotter!
