I will give it to Holyfield just because he was a smarter fighter than Ike.

I'm going against the grain & will say The President. If we're talking Holy's prime I think his instinct to brawl when he got hit would not do him well in this fight. Both had great chins but I think if anyone would get buzzed it would be Holy from Ike's power. Both could box, brawl & had pretty good hand speed but the power difference to me would be key.

Evander had a tendency to go to war in his prime. Those fights with Bert Cooper, George Foreman and Riddikk Bowe 1 being prime examples. I think it would behoove him not to go that route against a puncher like Ike. It's a tough call but cautiously I'd go with Holyfield.

Ike by Decision

I just think the President would outwork Holy and be too strong and powerful for him over the course of the fight similar to how Bowe was for Evander too.
