    Ingo by kayo. Similar to Gerrie Coetzie destroying Leon Spinks. Watch that one on YouTube. Coetzie really reminded me of Ingo in that one.

    If Dokes ain't drugging, he wins by a UD. Ingo was powerful, but he would be facing a tough, fearless fighter who could deal with him, and then some.

    That's exactly my thoughts about Ingo and Coetzee, except that Gerrie was a little more mobile than Ingo.

    If we are going with both at there best weight and there peak. Then I favour dokes to stop him but ingemear could win if dokes wasn't 100%

    Dokes had talent, but he just did not have the kind of wins of the kind of caliber that Ingo has with bis own albeit short prime. In 1959 Ingo had beat 3 of his top 5 contenders. All told, with a tiny amount of fights, Ingo beat 8 men who made the ring top ten annual ratings. Dokes cant match that. Not by a long way.

    Don't know if In go had the durability or stamina to make it late. While rediculously talented, Does blew so hot and cold it's difficult to call.
