The Riddick Bowe that Beat Holyfield Vs The Buster Douglas that beat Tyson

[drama2g]

If Tyson had done the right things leading up to that fight nobody today would even remember Buster Douglas. He had an amazing night but realistically he didn't have the tools to hang with a properly trained Tyson. I don't care how muc you miss your mom, punches still hurt. Bowe beat a young, heavily determined champ and he did it quite convincingly. Bowe all the way on this one

Bowe, (regardless of the fact that I think he's massively overrated) always had swagger and was always in fights to win them. Buster on the other hand ran hot & cold and when I say cold I mean FREEZING cold!

I think Bowe was the better all around boxer, better power puncher, and had the better arsenal of punches. Bowe ALSO had the better trainer.

Bowe, easily. Not even close.

Douglas fought an ill prepared, over confident and distracted Tyson who was absolutely awful on the night. Tyson just stood straight in front of him like a statue and Douglas hit him with pretty much every punch he threw. Apart from the knockdown in round 8, Douglas had everything his own way. I imagine most top heavyweights would have beaten Tyson that night. He really was that bad.

Bowe had to dig really deep to pull it out against Holyfield using a combination of boxing and sheer guts and determination. There is no way Buster Douglas could have beaten that Riddick Bowe.
