    I for one never understood why Bowe didn't fight Lennox. I thought he would beat him easy in the pros. He possesed one of the best jabs in heavyweight history,his overhand right was no cupcake also. Maybe it was as easy as it sounded Riddick was afraid of Lennox.

    I think he was. Lewis stopped in the Olympics and was hard for Bowe to get over that.

    Riddick Bowe was taught a boxing lesson by a shot overweight Tony Tubbs, when Riddick Bowe realized he couldn't deal with fighters with good jabs, he stayed away from Lennox Lewis. Just look how badly Andrew Golota dominated Riddick Bowe with the jab, Riddick Bowe was just a sitting duck for that double jab.

    I think Bowe losing to Golota had something to do with him already having marbles for brains. I have no clue how Bowe can get a boxing license NOW.
    Oops

    He always struggled with tall fighters with good jabs, just look at his early fights against Tony Tubbs, Tyrell Biggs. You can clearly see his timing/rhythm is totally off when those fighters were sticking there jabs in his face.

    And thats exactly what happened against Andrew Golota, prime or no prime unless Riddick Bowe finished Andrew Golota early. He would always have big problems with Andrew Golota.

    But problems of that magnitude? A prime Bowe would have done much better, IMO.

    31 rounds with Holyfield did him no favors either.How he is managing to be featured on a major Championship undercard baffles me.Hope some promoter is not actually thinking of big fights down the road?Bowe is a statistic waiting to happen
