    I don't see a Lot of differences between the 2 of them, and can't really pick a winner here especially with rahman's reach being 10 inches longer than ingo's and Johansson being a greater fighter.
    Maybe rahman but ingo can be lucky enough to catch his opponent with the bingo and take him out.

    Obviously you are joking but the reality is that it's a much better nickname for his right hand than the cute "hammer of thor".

    I think Rahman gets the drop on Ingo first here.

    Ingemar calls Rahman’s last number, then it’s BINGO and good night for Hasbeen.

    A two punch wonder always beats a one punch wonder.

    Ingemar, the alternate Universe’s GOAT, has lost far too many fantasy fights in recent times.

    I’m here to reverse the trend. :D

    I suppose both men have a punchers chance against the other. I might slightly favor Rahman because he faced a longer list of more dangerous men than Johansson did.
