    I think Ike is strong enough to nullify Honeyghan's aggression and unorthodox style. Working behind his jab lets him rack up enough points to win but Honeyghan would give him some rough moments.

    Ike by late stoppage or comfortable decision.

    Agreed with every word, and I can actually see Quartey getting Honeyghan out of there late.

    I'd take Quartey by late stoppage. I think Honeyghan might get off to a fast start and perhaps an early lead, but Quartey shakes off some rocky moments and picks apart the Ragamuffin to stop him late.

    I immediately thought Quartey stoppage. That's what I'm sticking with. Ike around 11.

    Definitely a late stoppage. Once Honeyghan starts taking some punishment he'd fall apart. He's to wide and defensively sloppy to deal with Ike's offense as the fight goes on.

    A sidenote: Honeyghan never was the same after that Starling fight. His punch resistance seemed to be much lower.
