Who Takes It

Ike- too much volume and power. Decision.

I think prime Witherspoon could edge him by decison.

Witherspoon by easy decision or late round stoppage.

Witherspoon by close decision.

Witherspoon by decision after outboxing Ike behind his jabs and overhand rights on the outside without engaging him on the inside.

Witherspoon Unanimous Decision

Before and after he went completely insane?

Well, as far as I'm concerned - he hasn't fought after he went insane. Or am I wrong?

He went to the zoo after the Tua fight.

Really? I don't remember that.

Well, even then, he still managed to stop Byrd post-Tua. I guess, insane Ike was still capable.

Yeah, kidnapped his ex's son... among other things. The guy's a complete scumbag.

Wow. I wasn't around back then. So, I don't know all the details.

I was thinking that things started going downhill for him post-Byrd bout.

Tua also beat Ike as far as I'm concerned. Close decision, not necessarily a robbery, but Tua landed the heavier shots throughout the fight, and clearly was the better fighter as the rest of his career showed.

I've only seen this fight once. Can't recall how I scored it. But your comment made me want to rewatch it. All I remember, it was a great scrap.

Yes, I think HBO scored it for Tua as well.

The best of Tim beats the best of Ibeabuchi. If Tim's not at the races, Ike would take him.

WOW, That would be some sort of fight, absolute huge fan of both guys, Maybe Witherspoon 51 - 49 its as close to 50 -50 as you could possibly get, And what about a undercard fight RAY MERCER vs DAVID TUA, 2 of the best Heavyweight fights i have ever watched were WITHERSPOON vs MERCER and IBEABUCHI vs TUA,

Let get this post more attention
