    Yep. Bowe was just feeling Hide out. As soon as Bowe started punching back the fight was over.

    True, and the funniest thing about it was that the punch that dropped Hide in the third and turned the fight around didn't even seem to land even though I watched multiple replays of it. That must tell something.

    That being said, I don't doubt Bowe when he said Hide was the biggest puncher he faced (especially since fighters always name somebody they beat). When Hide got off free shots he was indeed a great puncher, the demolition of faded Tony Tucker was very impressive one.

    The Klitschko KO didn't seem to really land either. Hide was scared of the super heavyweights, which Tommy Morrison wasn't.

    The punch DIDN'T land. In fact a punch wasn't even thrown. Hide simply threw himself on the floor and wanted out of the fight as soon as he realized that he couldn't hurt Bowe.

    Hide was the most moronic lunatic ever to lace'em up.
