Honestly I think its cause you are kinda off on your analysis....... You are awfully crtitical of Ike and scrutinize him like he was a 10 year pro or a fake alphaet title holder(valuev, maskaev) Ike never relized his potential and was very raw The Hype was VERY REAL he wasn't a product of a Promoter like (Valuev, Antonio Margarito etc.)...He earned his rep and was the complete package..

Speed
Power
Excellent Footwork
unreal stamina
Ring Smarts
Excellent defense
Unbeliavable punch output

Chris Byrd was an awsome southpaw and a Giant killer in the Heavyweight division his elusiveness speed and skills and concrete chin made a fool out of the Majority of the Heavyweights....Besides Wlad who shit on Chris Byrd like Ike did NO ONE did Byrd was a proven world class fighter

Ike hunted Byrd in that fight and pressured him like no one could do up to that point and few to none did after that fight.....Ike showed exceptional handspeed and just flat out took Chris's head off to the point he was drooling on himself.....He was so out of it he was argueing to the ref that it wasnt a knock down....ARE YOU SHITTEN ME he damn near decapitated him and than instead of fighting he was still argueing with the ref after the ref let him continue...The far away look in his eyes was worse than Meldrik Taylor's so it was waved off Mercifully....

Ike is a looney sum bitch out of the ring but in the ring he was a force and a freak of Nature
I get what you're saying. And that would be a great point. But if you noticed in the post, my beef wasn't with Ike

If you want me to talk about Ike here it is, everyone makes it seem like Ike was some world beater that would have dominated the Heavyweight division and everything in it. And he isn't. he didn't win one round against Byrd there. And sure he pressured him but it wasn't effective aggressiveness until he landed that haymaker. And thats what annoys me.



But like I told you I wasn't dissing Ike. I was dissing HBO who was treating Ike like he was Oscar or something, calling every miss a hit and things like that. I'm not critical of Ike, I'm critical that the HBO announcers should quit being so got damned bias. THAT is what disgusted me.

re-read my first post please, take a second to listen who you think this record is dissin
