    I think it is safe to say that by the 1st Bowe fight Evander was starting to show decreasing stamina. His ability to fight 12 hard rounds didn't drop off quite as dramatically as say ODH but when I watch that fight and ones afterward now I can see he took part of some rounds off. Unlike a guy like Lennox both Tyson's and Evander's prime was relatively short. It is hard to say who was father past it in 1996. I think Evander really wanted to be a knock out artist at HW and put on muscle to do so. To me this is what started to adversley effect his stamina and the whole heart issue. IMHO if he had stayed closer to 200 than 220 not mention stay a counter punch boxer and not brawler he may have one a few more. I still remeber when he had Bowe down in the third fight but just didnt' seem to have anything left in the tank to finish him. To me the Qawi fight is hands down his best fight for pure entertainment and the demolishing of Moorer in the rematch was very impressive.
