Lewis vs. Bowe Is On!!

[HeavyHitters]

From reliable sources, former heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe is about to goad former champ Lennox Lewis out of retirement to finally settle a long-standing feud that dates back to the 1988 Olympics. "The Ultimate Showdown" could forge an estimated $15 to $20 million for each combatant, while possibly spring-boarding the winner to a showdown with IBF/WBO/IBO champion Wladimir Klitschko.

This all started back when Lewis was on set in New York for Donald Trump's reality TV show, "The Apprentice", and Riddick Bowe came on the set and started heckling Lewis. Mr. Trump jokingly suggested them to take their quarrel into the boxing ring, and that is exactly what they have agreed to do with 'certain' boxing promotions pulling the strings.

Stay tuned for more information!!

Why would the big chicken Bowe want to fight Lewis sixteen years after he could & SHOULD have fought Lewis?

Once a chicken, always a chicken!

100% correct.

Bowe must have run out of money or something.

I can't see Lewis entertaining it; he has nothing to prove against anybody, especially man who wasn't man enough to fight when they were both in their primes, yet continually hurled insults like a school bully.

If he won't come back for Vitali, he won't come back for Riddick.

No source, no truth!

Boxing is not the place for cowards, especially ones with big mouths like Bowe.

[DIRT SUGAR]

That's an easy $15m to $20m for Lewis these days and another chance to beat the crap out of 'Chicken' Bowe. Can't see it happening though.

[DavidPayne]

Bowe wouldn't beat Audley Harrison.

Calling Bowe a coward is a pathetic statement. Watch his fights v Holyfield and Golota. They're the reason he's walking on his heels today.

the slack jawed yokel who started this thread is the troll silly

[THEBUTCH]

I think I might get a "Lewis won't box again" template that automatically posts itself on these threads.

These stories are just spurious nonsense. Lennox has been, conquered and gone. He won't be back.

As far as Bowe boxing Lewis, Riddick bottled it or Rock Newman bodged it all up. Lewis has never ducked a meaningful challenge.

[DavidPayne]

Bowe is shot to shit, if he wants money, tell him to go after Golota or Holyfield or Tyson.

All this is bollacks.

Any form of credibility Heavyhitters may muster is immediately destroyed when reading his website link: http://argyle302.multiply.com/

[Rocky Balboa]

Surely, this is just plain rollocks talk?

Bowe don't even knw whether he actually doing these days, let alone who or when he will be boxing next. His comebakc has been on/off more times than light-switch.

Lennox has no desire or intention to come back. He's got a family now, lots of money, lives a life of luxury probably. No need to tarnish his career by coming back.

[Dirk Kelly]

Lewis is interviewed in GQ this month saying he's been offered up to $40m for a comeback, when it reaches $50m he'll take off his PJ's, whatever that means.

Doubt this would happen, Lewis would d

Doubt this would happen, Lewis would destroy Bowe now.

Speaking of semi, isn't Will Ferrell, the star of the up-coming movie "Semi Pro" going to take pro boxing soon?

He WAS a coward for not fighting Lewis!

I don't care what else he did in his career, for that once occasion in his career, he was a coward!

Let's get this straight, Bowe threw his belt into a rubbish bin instead of fighting Lewis, who was his mandatory. If that's not a coward, I dunno
what the fck is!

On this same, rather bizarre theme, keep an eye out for Torquay's Gareth Hogg in Oz tonight, where he takes on Thai southpaw Komgrit Nanakorn in a 12-rounder.
Hogg, you will remember, 'went missing' prior to a challenge for the British light-heavyweight title held by Brockley nightmare Peter Oboh in Torquay in October 2006 and emerged Down Under and has apparently impressed in sparring sessions with Anthony Mundine and Paul Briggs. He's a puncher, with seven of his 11 victims taken out, and lost only to Matthew Barney in 13 outings in a four-rounder in 1999 on points. It was Hogg's second pro fight (Barney was 6-0) and he's reeled off 10 wins and a draw since, including a six-round decision over Neil Simpson in February 2006 in Plymouth for probably his best win.
Hogg, incidentally, was not the first man to duck out of fighting Oboh. In fact, he joined a long list of mandatory challengers to do so. Ironically, Oboh himself later walked out on a fight with Tony Oakey. The bigger they are, the flakier.

Well said.

This time in 1993, Bowe -v- Lewis was the most anticipated HW fight for many years.

It was the most natural fight of the time & probably would have been a classic, yet after years of insulting Lewis; when it came time to put up, Bowe ran like Carl Lewis & threw his hard fought world title belt into the bin.

The man is 100% coward; no question.

[nickd]

Lewis will destroy Bowe if it ever happens. Bowe struggled to beat Billy Zumbrun 3 years ago (weighing 280)! In fact most thought he got a gift decision. Lewis wouldn't even have to train a day to beat him right now.
