Why are people so certain Lewis would have beaten Bowe?

[Master]

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.

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.
