    People are hyping Ike way, way too much. The 2 best guys he fought were tailor made for him. 1 couldn't punch and the other was 5'10 with a small reach.

    Povetkin is strong and as tall as he is. He also has the power to have Ike respect him.

    With Ike's terrible defense and AP's great ability to put good, powerful combos together I see AP taking home a decision win.

    None.
    He's slow, cumbersome and wouldn't be able to hurt Ike or keep Ike off him. I think he has less chance than Chris Byrd. :yep

    Are you claiming Povetkin hits harder than Tua?

    Byrd and Tua were polar-opposites, in terms of their respective styles. I find it interesting that, with this in mind, both of them could be seen as having been "tailor made" for Ibeabuchi.
