Bowe was a good fighter and had he stuck to the hit & don't get hit he could win a UD, but if he got stupid and allowed George in range then I'm sorry Bowe just got hit too much. If Tyson hadn't been in prison at the time I doubt Bowe would have kept the title all that long after winning it off of Holyfield.
I'm not arguing George could hit hard, he was clearly a freak of nature. But Holyfield boxed him, Morrison boxed him, Stewart boxed him (and got jobbed), china chin Michael Moorer boxed him and won every round until he got dumb and caught... I just don't see Bowe not being able to do his work with that beautiful jab he had and his great inside fighting. Prime Bowe didn't get hit often.
