    I suppose we should favor Baer, if only because he was much more proven.

    I don't think that even Louis felt that he had stopped Baer with very little trouble.

    He was like "how the hell is this guy still standing."

    Anyone that over rates Ike Ibeabuchi is a fool !!!!! That guy would have dominated the HW division if he could have held it together

    Yes I think Ike is more skilled & his workrate would overwhelm Baer.
    Although I believe Ike was dazed towards the end of the fight, & Tua likely could hav ecaught him if it went 15 rounds.
    But that was through landing a volume pof punches that Baer could not-& Tua stopped doing this sometime after this fight.
