    I had Ike beating Oscar by a point or two (and Bazooka was a little past his absolute best by then IMO).

    I think his jab would've really troubled Mosley around 2000.

    Would've been great to see him fight Pea in the mid 90s, then Tito, then Sugar Shane.

    The best ww Quartey vs the best ww Mayweather is an interesting fight to ponder as well.

    I always enjoyed watching Ike fight. Monstrous jab!

    And he definitely got robbed against Vernon.

    Yes not every round was action filled and no its not overrated. It was very tension filled and they both had respect for each other because both had dynamite in their hands. The action made up for the lulls in action. To this day its a fan favorite and it delivered.
