Ike Williams is, without doubt, one of the very best lightweights. I rate him #2, behind Benny Leonard. And Enrique Bolanos makes him fight. The whole fight is on youtube.

i always thought that ike williams was an underrated lightweight. he is definitely a great fighter. i would not put him at #2 though because i believe that duran and leonard are clear #1 and #2 at lightweight. he would probably be between 5-10. lightweight may be the deepest weight class in the history of the sport.
I love the 1948 fight between Beau Jack and Ike Williams . KO6 For Williams.
