Jesus this commentator was a bit harsh on Thomas. The dude struggled with some serious demons and he’s just trying to earn a living. He had the balls to accept a fight with Riddick Bowe and by this time was already known to be a killer. Man, Bowe was a marvel to watch at times!! His work ethic was 💩 but his skills are seriously scary for a man of his size. Those combos are so fluid and his uppercuts are of those grazing split eyebrow types.

Tyson easily knocked Thomas down and won by TKO.Big Daddy couldn't do likemanner.

Bowe….just imagine what could have been if he stayed disciplined and in-shape. I believe Bowe would have given Lewis a good fight, regardless of the winner, it would have been a good fight.

The commentary on this fight is a joke!

It's a miracle that Pinklon Thomas was not knocked unconscious in that fight. Bowe was going easy on him.

[@Duel1982]

Two elite level talents whos out of the ring decisions led to their in the ring downfalls. Bowe with his diet and lack of discipline. Pinklon with the Heroin addiction, didn't get clean until just prior to his loss to Holyfield. By this point Pink, while sober, was worn out from his in the ring wars. Bowe, even in his prime showed plenty of vulnerability. He wasnt hard to hit. But usually overwhelmed his opponents with his excellent jab and in-fighting for a bigger man.

Good to have you back coach. Hope you've been ok

[@msix1836]

This bout was a total disgrace. Thomas’s cornermen, the sleepy judge…. Shame on you guys👎🏻

[@jaydebeer7251]

If bowe had kept the form he had against holyfield he would of been a serious handful for anyone including tyson who i think bowe would of beaten.

Thanks for the fights, wonderful these older fights of my time

Never seen this fight wow

[@rcfred_689]

That hook Pinklon Thomas landed at the beginning of the second round was a really good shot. You know Bowe felt it, he started clowning.

Sugar Ray Leonard going full gigolo in the ring before the bout 😂

[@Robert-qm5so]

I believe Ref had a little too many hamburgers 😂
