Yes Bowe was good on the inside but if you allow Tyson to fight you on the inside you're begging for a beat down.

I just think if Holyfield can rock the hell out of Riddick Bowe then Tyson with quick combinations and good head movement can do the same.


I hate to do this because I think both Holmes and Bowe were a bit better than this fight, but this hypothetical match reminds me of Tyson-Holmes....Holmes had a PROVEN rock solid chin and Tyson just wrecked his world. Granted it was on short notice, but I figure Bowe wouldn't have had added much more speed, power, or defense than Holmes did.
On the flipside though Holmes was definitely on the slide. I think a prime Holmes takes Tyson.
