You see what i mean this is what i mean by being overrated, people just watch the Bowe fights and think Golota could of beat some of the best 90s Heavyweights when he would of never had. Lets get one thing straight that Bowe was a shell of himself in the Golota fights and had been fading long before the Golota fights. Golota just got to Bowe at the right time, no one gave Golota a chance against Bowe because he wasn't considered that good. He had decent skills along with a good jab, but he was very robotic and it wasn't just his mental weakness, he had other very bad flaws. Almost getting KO by Samson Po'uha and having to bite his neck to survive was a disgrace.
After the Bowe fights his career was very disappointing, the only decent names he beat after that was Tim Witherspoon, Jesse Ferguson, who were both 40+. And he couldn't even stop glass chin Michael Grant when he had him down twice in the first, but when Grant starts to fire back and knocks him down he quits like a big girl, because he knew Grant was on the verge of stopping him and instead of trying to survive or go out on his shield he quits even though he was clearly winning the fight. After that he had decent showing against Byrd when they battled each other to a draw. And then he lost to John Ruiz yes he did knock down Ruiz twice but once again couldn't seal the deal and Ruiz comeback strong and won UD.
If Golota would of faced some of the best 90s Heavyweights, he would of lost to most of them and in brutal fashion as well.
