Tua vs Ike
Johnson fought for the WBA a year earlier and had beat Savarese in the meantime.
I rank Holmes higher. Holmes had one of the longest reign of the history and showed formidable consistancy. He was competitive with the best even...

It was a close fight. And the Bakole who fought Yoka was better than the one who fought Ajagba.
Amateurs and pros are a different ball game (see Gonzalez vs Bowe). Bowe was very willing to face Lewis (at least as much as Lewis), why are you...
