Bowe a no show at weigh-in!
By Ralph Gonzalez
The media waited for over an hour after weigh in time for Riddick Bowe only to be informed that the former heavyweight champ was barely making his way down to The Pechanga Entertainment center from Los Angeles. Bowe will be fighting Billy Zumbrun as part of Fox Sports "Best Damn Sports Show" tomorrow night. Here are the weights from the fighters on hand:

Billy Zumbrun 228 vs. Riddick Bowe (Will weigh in later)

RIDDICK BOWE IS A FAT, OUT-OF-SHAPE LOSER! I COULD ACTUALLY SEE HIM LOSING THIS FIGHT. PULL A MUSCLE OR SOMETHING. His opponent beat Joe Hipp and has been active.

Bowe should have never came back. He doesn't take boxing serious, IMO.

At one time Bowe was awesome. His last fight, I only saw highlights, and I must say He looked soo slow, you could time him with a sun dial. I havent seen Billy Zumbrun fight, but by looking at his record, he looks like he has a decent shot. This reminds me of Tyson taking on Danny Williams. I just think they picked the wrong guy for a showcase bout. If Bowe wins, he wont look good doing it.

zumbrum has a maj dec win over butterbean......lol...but,he`s also been k.o.`ed by big,fat canadian patrice(yeah,i said patrice)l`heureux......
but,bowe must be in horrific physical shape(mentally,he`s a mess)....or he`d have shown up for the weigh-in....

if zumbrum(5`-11" tall) from utah(i guess that means he`s white) beats bowe,that probably means he`ll get a shot vs holifield for the newly formed M.P.S. heavyweight title....

btw...M.P.S.=Mentally and Physically Shot........

The fight was terrible. At one time I'm sure Bowe was out on his feet. This guy needs to workout hard and strip down to 255 lbs or don't even think about becoming a top ten contender. Right now anyone in the top 30 would beat Bowe easily.

:hump:
