[@ritchski1]

Bowe is a great surprise. Often overlooked but I’d rank him an all time great. Head to head there not many that would beat him. I always felt he’d be a nightmare for prime Tyson, big , skilled, great heart and chin. People say he threw his career away but the fights with Holyfield were the pinnacle of the 90s, no better heavyweight fights than those. A legacy in itself.

[@rosiemason-rk4cm]

Tua v Ibeabuchi was better than any fight involving Bowe. There are many, many others too. The belt in the bin by Bowe can NEVER be forgiven.

[@ritchski1]

@@rosiemason-rk4cm it was a great fight but I didn’t find it as exciting personally, just two guys going at each other with high punch count. That 10th round between holy and Bowe was like an entire fight in itself. Yeah the bin episode wasn’t great but I don’t define Bowe by it because I really don’t think he feared Lewis, I think his management did. Bowe earned a lot of respect in the golota fights, I can’t see how anyone can question his bravery after that, he was willing to die in there, and was probably damaged irreparably.

Try and understand boxing a little before commenting, is not about improving is about fighting the right way and using your full potentials.

One of the reasons it all came too quick for aj is because the judge's handed him one, maybe two victories in the Olympics he shouldn't of won. Home advantage hey

[@angryboxingfan]

That and the money that was pumped into him. People don’t realise how hard it is to get good opponents early when there’s no money in the pot. Guys like Wilder were working day jobs well into their career. Even Franklin who just fought Joshua went bankrupt in the pandemic and had to quit boxing for a while and work three jobs. Joshua had a professional set up and team behind him before he even turned pro.

Of course he was ahead of schedule. He won his first world championship at 15 pro fights which is the quickest heavyweight rise in history. You can have an opinion but when it contradicts recorded facts it makes your opinion completely worthless. The fewest fights to become heavyweight champion in history isn't ahead of schedule to you?

AJ is far better than you suggest and you have just jumped onto the hate bandwagon.
