Andrew Golota vs. Oscar "Ringo" Bonavena

[scorpio83]

12 or 15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Either Golota use his height and reach to outbox Ringo behind his jabs and right hands to take a decision or would Ringo pound him on the body to wear him down to take a decision or he would stop Golota late. What do you guys think and who do you got?

I think Golota could've handily beaten Bonavena. If Bonavena were tough enough to hang in there the distance I could see Golota losing his cool, and getting points deducted and shit, but I think he'd be beating Bonavena well enough that he wouldn't be stupid enough to get himself DQ'd.

Then again, there's the Bowe fights where that's exactly what he did in a fight he was winning handily.

Golota is a wildcard that's all there is to it. He's truly capable of almost anything. He could win with his skill or lose because of his temper.

Well said.
