We might be in danger of disappearing down some huge, sidebar rabbit holes gents 
For me, I think Fury beats Bowe but it is a tight one.
Fury might well go down, Bowe had that in his locker - it might be a SD - but the Morecambe Man still has enough.
A rematch might well be on the cards....some unfinished business.
What swings it for me is that Fury is a huge bloke who can box, scores accurately, hits hard when needs be and ain't going to be physically rail-roaded by Bowe. If he goes down, he gets back-up and if Bowe wants a shoving match, Fury can oblige.
Fury is far from perfect or invincible - you can see the American Tyson exploding out of the blocks and nailing him with three or four huge shots he just won't survive, Holmes winning a battle of jabs/distance and Lewis winning as well - but I would still contend Fury edges Bowe and without the mind-feck that Bowe and Lewis never resolved their differences
