Sorry but Winky should be up there. IMO even Vitali Klitschko is better than Bowe and would have beaten him soundly.

Re: Top 20 since the 1990s (P4P)
Bowe would be in the top 20 for wasted talent !
That guy had the universe at his feet but enjoyed a steak too much !
He was loved in the Uk ad seemed a really good sportsman ,I remember he spent about a month over here !
Remember him presenting Sports personality awards , sitting ringside to watch Herbie Hide - Michael Muray and giving a great interview plus the bin episode , that was real exposure here what is was like in the states I don't know.
His decline was shocking even y boxing standards

I'd add Tszyu to the list but like Jaz I really can't pick one to drop exept for Bowe.
That is a cracking list BTW

I remember that.Originally Posted by Big Dick Whittington
I went to watch Hide -v- Murray & Riddick Bowe was there & he was a really nice guy!
I also remember a ringside interview after the Hide fight & Herbie was poking Riddick in the face, telling him where he's going to hit him when/if they fought in the future!
Bowe was so calm & didn't really react at all.

Did you all miss the part where I said I couldn't think of number 20, so just put Bowe there even though he doesn't deserve it

Terry Norris deserves at least an honors mention IMO.

In fact I am surprised Taylor hasnt been mentioned. His resume is tough as hell too.

Saddoboxer I get neg repped for mentioning Taylor whenever Bowe was actually listed.

And I neg repped you because you are fucking retarded. You know people hate talking about Pac all the time, but you can't help it. You should change your name to Radio.

Good list BritKid.
However I can't help it but notice that Morales is nowhere to be found.

It was very so so (the list), Morales was in final reckoning, but missed the cut, I must confess to always being a Barrera man, so Erik was hard done by.
I also try to underrate active (or potential active fighters) so as to not end with egg on my face, if it all goes wrong!

Here's your problem mate... You just post here without reading or understanding the other postings... The threadstarter MOD BIG_H just placed Bowe there coz he can't think of anyone else...
"Was struggling with number 20, so put Bowe in, pretty sure he doesn’t deserve it!"
You first give me a neg rep when I mentioned a fact that PAC defeated 4 boxers in that elite list.... Neg rep for presenting a fact??

PAC is in the list posted by other members... I think it's not off-topic to comment about PAC on this thread... It isn't like out of the blue I brought up PAC's name in this thread...
This is the Top 20 list and by mentioning that PAC defeated 20% of that list makes him fully deserving to be in this Top 20 list... Agree mate??
