    I could see Ike giving Bowe a tough go, but both at their bests, I definitely favor Bowe. He'd have a field day with his uppercut on Ike on the inside, and on the outside Bowe would control the fight with his jab.

    Bowe.. UD or late stoppage.

    I'l take Ike, but with a huge caveat.

    Bowe was very protected against punchers, and there is a reason. Nor do I see Bowe hurting the President.

    The only caveat, and it is a big one, is that we have no idea how Ike performs against a big, strapping heavy. Who knows, maybe he looks have as good against a quality 6'5" heavy.

    How do you figure that?
    Ike caught and stopped a very durable and elusive southpaw in Byrd so he isn't unskilled at all and was the only man to go to WAR! with Tua Ike not looking hurt once in his career.... he walked through Tuas best he isn't being hurt and he isn't being outboxed by Bowe this is a clash of chin, workrate, stamina and power all which belong to Ike.

    What say you?

    After beating Tyson and Louis in one night, Ike shouldn't have any problems with Bowe. Easy fight for him, only someone as good as Tua could make fight with the greatest ;)

    The supposed greatness of Ike Ibeabuchi is an internet creation.

    Bowe is the more complete guy.

    Ike is better than Golota,Donald,Gerrie...
    Ike is better,bigger and stronger than cruiser Holyfield!Riddick Low Blow would start to cheat but I see angry Ike knocked him in late rounds because of low blows!

    He's not faster (that's laughable) and he's not as skilled as Holyfield.
