    If prime Bowe would have had a longer life than a tuna fish sammich on the shelf he would be TBE.

    Yeah. He needed some "career-defining" fights on par with his trilogy with Mr. Fields. Had he beaten Go lota and Lewis, that may have been enough to get TBE.

    Well if McCall and Rahman could knock him out Bowe could but he was not iron chinned himself. That being said it was not Lewis who ran from the fight so i going with Lewis. Bowe wanted no part of the man maybe he was not very sure of his chances with Lewis so he throw the title away.

    Lewis could be complacent but against Bowe he would never do that. Like he was against Rudduck, he would be at his best.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I agree with you. With Lewis it seemed he could be complacent if he underestimated you. Happened with both Rahman and McCall. His revenge against Rahman is still one of my favorite HW fights.

    That Lewis looked like he would rip your head off. He did rip Rahman's head off.

    It would have been a war, Lewis would have wilted if he faced the Bowe that fought Holyfield. Would not have gone 8 in my estimation. Certainly would end in a KO for Bowe at some stage of the game. Bowe was built for the professional league, Lewis was a good fighter than moulded himself into a great champion over time!
