all these guys coming back to 147 are going to be severely weight drained and won't be effective

At Ike's age, he doesn't have time for two warmups, especially given the time he takes off in between fights.

Ike will be fine he hasnt had a long layoff so he will be okay, comming down to 147 is great news I would love to see him beat Oscar again, I would like to see him fight Mosley, the younger guys if any I would like to see him in there with Floyd he doesnt sit down on his shots the way Cotto and Margarito does, a fight with Williams would end up like the Winky fight.

I thought Ike was busy building a hospital in Nigeria and wouldn't be fighting again for another year or two?

Think they will be fine, it's not like they fight more than twice a year. But this is there true weight class. This is becoming more and more interesting. The WW division is really loaded! :bbb

Interesting addition.
Makes this one a deeper and intriguing division.
You have the current gatekeepers (PBF, Margarito, Clottey, Baldomir), prospects turning into top-tiers (Cotto, Williams, Cintron), decent players (Collazo, Quintana) and now the old guards coming back (Shane, Ike).
Wait a minute. We have to include the Superman (Zab) in the mix as well.:yep
Overall, this is as deep as you can get.

Quartey, for all his reputation, doesn't FIGHT when he needs to to win. People complain about his loss to Forrest, but watch that shit again; Quartey didn't do anymore than Forrest did. Even if you think he deserved to win, you have to admit he looked like shit. He won't do much now at 147 or any other weight. He might beat some top guys and I'd love to see him fight someone like Margarito who would make him fight, but he won't be the true champ again.

it only means they are the veterans out there in the division, not exactly someone whom upstarts would play with to legitimize their ascendancy in Welterweight.

Okay, I guess I just never heard of the term gatekeeper being defined as a veteran in the division. Usually when I have heard someone referred to as a gatekeeper, it's a guy like Charles Shufford at heavy or Robert Daniels at middle.
