    I agree with your prediction, & stumbled upon the fight on HBO at the time.
    But Ike threw mostly power punches. They were mostly hard shots-he just could not hit as hard as Tua.

    Good response. While he was listed at no more than 210-215 in his prime & not much over 6' tall, given his bone structure, long arms, musculature & not very low body fat-& unlike prime Foreman never was foolishly advised to come in dehydrated as far as I can tell...

    I really do not know why his real weight was not ~ 20 lbs. heavier.
