We thought we might have seen the last of this aged, brain damaged former champion.... But alas, it looks likes he's fighting next weekend.

I understand what you mean, but Jerry Quarry was a grown man... Bowe is already damaged, fighting on will only increase his decline and he could well end up like Quarry or Greg Page... the man is a disaster waiting to happen. Shame on those who are allowing him to fight again, I'd like to have them shot if I could....KOJOE90 wrote:Yeah, I noticed that to. I wish the guy well and he is a grown man and old enough to make his own choices in life but I have a horrible feeling this comeback will end in tears.

Maybe Holyfield could beat Rahman again this time actually making an alien pop out of his head then we can have Holy-Tyson 3 - Holy wins. Then Holy-Bowe 4 for the WBC - a belt neither had for that long when they were busy ducking Lewis. Then Bowe beats Holy and we get Bowe-Lennox the fight we've always wanted. You guys just don't see the possibilities 
You can see the funny side perhaps but the fact is some of these guys will be having trouble walking in a straight line in ten years time, and might not be around at all...Phenomenal-Nutrition wrote:Maybe Holyfield could beat Rahman again this time actually making an alien pop out of his head then we can have Holy-Tyson 3 - Holy wins.

I hear excatly what you are saying. My original statement was as much from a feeling of detached helplessness and morbid feelings of doom and gloom.silkov wrote:I understand what you mean, but Jerry Quarry was a grown man...

BOXING EATS IT'S OWN.
THis is why there should be one body internationaly so that people like Hollyfild and Bowe can be stoped fighting on grounds of there health insted of finding another country, state or in some cases native american reservation which is willing to let them suffer in order to make some quick $$. 
sad state boxing is in its all about the money and not about protecting great men who have given so much to the sport.

Not Foreman Per se.... try thanking the crop from the late 80's early 90's for being so inept - with the exception of four fighters.funso banjo baby wrote:some troll was trying to defend tony tubbs's circus as well.... its all very unsavoury....
have we got to thank lean mean George Foreman for starting the generation of geriatric heavies (or is my memory wrong.... ?)
The old man comeback though has happend for years, nearly centuries even. James J Jeffries, Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Ernie Shavers, Leon Spinks all made ill adviced comebacks.

That waster couldn't be bothered to get into shape in the 1980's when he was a young man, so why anyone would think that he can now, now that he is almost middle aged is baffling.
