If Mike Tyson had fought Riddick Bowe

[rjj tszyu]

This is a hard fight to call IMO. One thing I will say though is I don't think it would go the distance. I hear time and time again how good Bowe's chin was but was really tested against someone of Tysons power or speed? No. Also I felt as though Evander was not far off stopping him when the fan man came into the ring in their second fight. So as far as Tyson goes I think he COULD KO Bowe.

On the other hand if Bowe was keeping Tyson at bay and winning the fight in the later rounds I think Tyson would fall eventually and I think Tysons heart would give out on him as it did in pretty much all his defeats.

Tyson IMO didn't have the mental toughness to be truly great in the ring and to me Bowe didn't have the mental toughness outside the ring to stay out of the fridge and be great in it.

Really mate ? i felt the total opposite, Evander Holyfield comeback in the 4th 5th 6th rounds. But in the 7th round Riddick Bowe was regaining control of the fight when the fan man come in, i think you should watch that again mate beause i think the total opposite.

As for Riddick Bowe's chin, well i wouldn't say he had a granite chin. But it was quite a solid chin with great heart. I mean how many Heavyweight's could of took that punishment in the 2nd Andrew Golota fight.

You have to have a good chin and have some balls, to wishstand that hammering he took. I mean in one round he took 70+ power punches and thats a crazy amount for Featherweight's let alone Heavyweights.

I see your point, but I felt that Bowe was giving his final effort in that round knowing that Holyfield was starting to dominate and was edging towards the KO. Just my view on it though mate and as I said I can totally see where your coming from.



Here it is anyway for anyone else who wants to have a look!
