    As you guys know im not a huge fan of Tyson , however lets be honest its hard to see Bowe living 2 rounds with a prime Tyson , to be fair I think Bowe would be beaten before he stepped into the ring , I think he would have shit his pants looking at Tyson.

    Tyson - TKO 1 / 2.

    The major objection I have to that as I've been saying to Master, is to look at the calibre and quality of the fighters Tyson was knocking out in 1-2 rounds back in his prime. They were nothing the level of Bowe. Likewise Bowe was never really beaten convincingly by Holyfield over 3 fights, the 2nd one was pretty close. And even if you give Golota those fights he messed up look at the condition of Bowe by then.

    I usually rate Bowe and Tyson evenly matched and I can definitely see a Tyson KO as a plausible outcome but I reckon he is more durable than that!

    Bowe was no wimp, he had other issues such as laziness and food.

    I know all the facts and my opinion stands.

    Toughie... but I think the Bowe that kicked Holyfield's ass would have taken Tyson to a decision and won it out...
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    That would be my front running outcome.

    Well if the two of you think that then Tyson would have won as you are both usually wrong.

    Imagine the punches Holyfield landed on Bows and think what affect Tyson would have had if he landed those on Bows.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
