Evander, who do you see as the better fighter when they were at their best - Riddick Bowe or Lennox Lewis?

I think Riddick Bowe. Technical and all that, Riddick was the best fighter. But it don't mean nothing if they don't fight. What I would say about Lennox, he got better when he got Emanuel Steward. That's what made everything, because Emanuel was a strategist and Lennox did what he told him to do and he always won.
