    I just finished watching Ike vs Byrd.

    Ike was solid. He looks massive. I believe he would have been an ATG, and he would have added an extra level excitement to that current heavyweight mix.

    I think Ike vs Lewis would have been incredible.

    Valero, EASILY. Way more talented than Ibeabuchi.

    Valero had the whole package boxing wise.

    Neither had the mental attributes to be a long term champion. Ike was a less talented version of Mike Tyson and would have went down hill in a similar way, same with Valero. They both could have done more but true champions have the mental as well as physical attributes to achieve their goals.
