Yep, Golota was considered a "keep busy" bum of the month, and Bowe was considered the best in the world at the time. Nobody around here even knew who Golota was - and he made Bowe look like an amateur! I still can't believe that the dumb f managed to snatch defeat right out of the jaws of victory in both of those fights. It's still bugging me. There's never been anything like it before, or anything like Golota before either. He had amazing natural talent. I don't think we know the true story about him and what was really going on in his strange fights, and behind the scenes.

I know a lot of people see the the whole trash can stunt as evidence that Bowe didn't want to fight Lewis.
However, what indication is there that Bowe did not want to fight Tyson?
