Ike "The President" Ibeabuchi (1997/Tua) v. "Merciless" Ray Mercer (1996/Lewis)

Both were brutal knockout artists, both were feared in the division and both were annihilators! Who wins this one hell of a fight?
I heard that Ike was calling out Ray prior to his incarceration, and wanted to be the first man to stop him (before Wlad).
