Ike Aycock became a sparring partner for Max Baer in early December 1934. Although he was initially a welterweight, Ike had transitioned to middleweight and was known for his quick hands and excellent footwork. Max preferred to train with middleweights because of their speed.
Ike was the father of author Colleen Aycock, who wrote "The Magnificent Max Baer: The Life of the Heavyweight Champion and Film Star." https://mcfarlandbooks.com/product/the-magnificent-max-baer/
