The two-time heavyweight champ made a modest proposal. Things went downhill from there.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Retired boxer Riddick Bowe has 451,000 followers. The opportunity to make his Twitter account say ANYTHING for $20 was an opportunity too good to pass up for a lot of people. Things got weird.
There were song lyrics with the word “Bowe” in them.
