Riddick Bowe vs. Jimmy Young

Post by scorpio83 »

12 (or 15) Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Young would have his moments in the early rounds by jabbing and countering Bowe's punches to frustrate him, but in the middle and later rounds, Bowe would finally cut Young off the ring by jabbing, body punching and landing left-right to the head as Big Daddy would take a decision. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Riddick Bowel by decision. Jimmy Young would be too slick. I would not be surprised if a Young victory. He at his very best, was very good. Same for Bowel.

It's Bowe not Bowel. Anyways, Young was good and slick.

If this fight takes place within Bowe's 5 minute prime, the fight lasts less than five minutes.

Otherwise it's a pick'em. Or likely Young decision.

You really think a peak Bowe takes out Young in 2 rounds ? I'd like to see that.

Bowe would win Young in about the same eventless fashion, like he won Tubbs.
