Riddick Bowe W12 or late TKO.

Tyson by TKO around the 6th. Bowe's defense was way too open and despite his boxing skills he slugged too much.

Assuming it is in their respective primes, I'd go with a stoppage for Bowe late.

A fight of two harves. Bowe goes through hell over the first 6, before taking over and stopping Tyson in around 10 rounds of a war. Probably neither of them would have ever been the same again.

I think Bowes a bit overrated. He's prime basically consists of one fight.

In a sense he peaked in Holyfield 1, but still maintained a high level (90-95% of his peak) through to Golota ...where he finally faded. He was an over-eater, not the worst heavyweight offender ever, but he would have been better staying below 17 stone. For my money he would have beaten a pre-McCall, Lennox Lewis. Before Manny sorted him out.
