    he has superior all round boxing skills to the guys today and is a better ring general.

    Basic boxer nowhere near the defensive skill of Fury.

    Holy was a far better, quicker counter puncher.

    Parker has much quicker fists and faster better counter jab as shown v the longer AJ, how many counter jabs did Ike throw v Tua?

    What's the price of tea in china, mark?

    Because that has as much relevance to what we're talking about.

    Ike had the most under rated trainer in the game Curtis Cokes. I watched him transform Ike from a crude slugger to a great boxer puncher. If only he hadnt called that lying hooker in Vegas

    The mistake Ike made was to call that lying hooker in Vegas. You know the one that claimed she only came to DANCE for him ROFLMAO Then tried to con him but they never called her on that
    Thje only fighter out there that could probably beat Ike was Lennox Lewis. That fight would be a barn burner.
    I like both guys would be a hard fighjt to watch

    No he did not. He did a job on Tua and gave him his first loss

    How the heck would you know this? He was 26 when he was sent to prison. Most HWs haven't even made a dent at 26. He had tremendous upside.
