Norris vs Quartey in 94-95

Norris was still in his prime around this time, and Ike was at his very best then... he was already faded by time he fought Oscar in 99.

Who wins?

 

at 154lbs?

 

Let's say a catchweight of 151, which Norris could easily make.

 

Lol, I like you X, but man do you love to microdissect the prime of fighters

 

As for the matchup, I think Norris is a bit too fast and dynamic for Ike. Probably a rather close fight, but I see Norris flooring him a few times en route to an UD

 

Well, that's truly how boxing is. Only a preciousfew guys have long peaks.

I do think Ike was quicker/sharper in 94 when he fought Espana than he was against Oscar.

 

Norris would likely win due to the size and speed advantage.

Of course, the chance of him getting over confident due to his ability to land on Quartey could easily produce some chances for Ike to hurt him with some of those right hands.

Still lean towards Norris, Ike has a chance.
