IMO, the Riddick Bowe performance, which won the first Holyfield fight, was the best by a Heavyweight ever.

The only performance, that comes close to matching that, would be the Lennox Lewis performance which beat Tua.

But that is only theoretical, as psychologically, there is now way, IMO, Lewis would of lost a fight with Bowe, even if it happened in November 1992.
Good point about Bowe's first Holyfield fight being his best performance. However, I think the Lennox that KO'd Rahman in the rematch was better than the UD over Tua, because Lennox is one of the few fighters who actually fights better when he's angry. He and Bowe hated each other and I think he would have blasted Bowe out in less than 8 rounds. As for Douglas vs Bowe, I do think Riddick would have won, but I'll go out on a limb and say Douglas survives the entire fight. True he got dropped by a Tyson who was at his worst, but IMO Tyson at his worse still hits harder than Bowe at his best.
