Who's the best African-born fighter?

Little known fact, but hasn't been confirmed: Sam Peter beat Ike when he was 15. Not sure if it was by knockout.

What was that at, to see who could drink the most pints?

Lol, Ike was everything Sam is not. The only thing equal is the power and that's it.

[Don Johnson]

I call bull**** on that, Ike was way too good of a fighter to lose to a young and archaic Samuel Peter. Plus when Sam was 15, Ike was 24 and already climbing up the pro ranks.

[Grand Champ]

**** Tiger... What kind of name is that.

Ike is a "what if" fantasy to Paul and some others.

He would have been stopped by Vitali just like JC Gomez was.

Who was (or is) the best boxer ever from the continent of Africa?

Sam Peter? Corrie Sanders? Joshua Clottey?

Well what do you mean..like Light African? Dark African, Afrika Bambaata?
What percentage of Africna must they be? What if they were Born in Africa but moved to another Country? What if they are Albino?.....just Joking (I made the White best boxer) and they turned it into that...lol

I would say Azumah Nelson.

Lol, he took bomb after bomb from a PRIME Tua, yet he would be stopped by Vitali, who is an accumulation puncher? We will never know how far Ike could have gone, but he had too many qualities for people to dismiss as a mere hype.

No guy that size has ever thrown that amount of punches.
He had good hand speed.
He had good power.
He had a very good chin and heart.
He showed in the Byrd fight that he had patience and boxing skill.

Like I said the other day, people don't have wet dreams about a guy who hasn't fought in 10 years, unless he had a lot going for him.

[street bully]

Azzumah Nelson, the ATG.
