The same thing that happened the first time would have again. Bob would just come back, and hit Owen with the same attack that he was hit with. It's not in Bob's power set to mimic other characters powers, but when it come to total control over certain things like his being, good luck stopping him. The Sentry lives in several different time instances at once. Owen loses again imo. Owen simply did not seem capable of resisting the same force that he threw out. Could it be that he can't take what he himself can give?
Hey there friends ... ^^ I'm not sure it's that simple.
For instance:
So, ... on top of being mentally unstable!
(Owen created illusionary facsimiles of Beyonder, Mephisto & others,
so he could talk to himself since they were reflections of his sub-conscious)
... Owen also de-powered himself at the end of the Post-Beyonder fight:
--------------------------
... Which is probably why in the Sentry encounter he's limited to localized molecular control:
(Owen himself stated this)
(Victoria Hand confirms this fact)
--------------------------
... so that ... on top of literally wanting to lose during the Sentry comedy ...
Actually, I prefer to say,
Owen eased the win for Sentry, rather than outright handing it to him.
... meh, Sentry was obliterated on 3 separate occasions by Owen,
and at the end, Sentry even got a clean shot at Owen,
(same looking energy he used to defeat Owen)
and Owen immediately recovered/retaliated & exploded Sentry a Third time:
Then, the same looking orange energy has a lasting affect 3 pages later. lol
It seems to me, sub-consciously Owen had enough, and it was time to go away,
and Sentry was the only one powerful enough he could count on for the job.
Imo.

Sentry wins again.Owen wasn't depowered.
He just choosed to use his powers inside his town.
That's easy to understand as it is repeated several times.
Sure, Owen wasn't depowered...
As long as you ignore Mr Masters scan that indicated he was after his fight with Post Retcon Beyonder...

Molecule Man with ease. You have to remember, as strange as it sounds, none of MM's showings from SWI and SWII have been retconned! So he has MULTIPLE multiversal level feats to his name. Then you have his TRANSmultiversal fight with the Beyonder in that Fantastic Four Annual.Void is out of his league here.

I'm not crazy enough to say Sentry has a chance against a top notch MM, but I do have to say that the Sentry was just learning this ability during the battle with Reese. When he finally got it, Reese kind of knew he was done. I don't believe Owen left on his own terms. He was afraid.
That's all, but I suppose its up for different interpretations.
