    Pointless post...really.

    Prime Ruddock knocks out Ike, Old Foreman, Young Foreman Ali, Frazier, Marciano, Patterson, Liston, Louis, Lennox Lewis, so of course he knocks out Ike.

    THe only man or men that can stand up to PRIME Ruddock is Prime Tyson, Jimmy Young, and Alexander Povetkin.

    No, he really wouldn't.

    Donovan Ruddock was my favourite 90s Heavyweight outside of Riddick Bowe, but his power is outrageously overstated. How long did it take him to take out a shot Greg Page again?

    Loved Ike's fight with Tua. I think Mike would get a decision.

    ruddock was already past it by 92 bro.........and page came in great shape against ruddock 228 lbs actually..........i asked page in 2003 who the hardesyt puncher was.........his answer was razor ruddock then george chaplin............harder than bonecrusher/tyson in sparring along many many other fighters greg page fought.............i wouldnt say ruddocks power was overstated....
    ike ibeacbuchi would never beat a prime ruddock....he fougfht tua and byrd thats it:smoke

    Ike wouldnt last the distance with Mike. In fact, he wouldnt last longer than 6 rounds.

    Tua's power was extremely overrated. Tua never dented anybody with a proven chin in his whole career. Hell, it took him 11 rounds to put away chinless Oleg Maskaev.

    Tua was able to hit Ike with a NUMBER of uppercuts, and hurt him late in the fight.

    Tyson had more power than Tua, in BOTH hands, and had 10x the handspeed. Meaning he'd be hitting Ike with alot more velocity than Tua, and with much greater frequency and accuracy.

    And regardless of how good Ike's chin seemed, if Mike can hit you frequently..... you WILL go.

    Ike would go toe to toe with Mike, and it'd prove for one HELLUVA exciting fight. But it'd also prove to be disasterous for Ike.

    88 Tyson was just a different level fighter than Tua and Ike.

    Yeah, and beat both of them. Who did Ruddock fight? Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, and Tommy Morrison. What happened in those fights, anut?

    All I'm saying is, Ike Ibeabuchi proved himself to have great punch resistance in what little we did see of him. Ruddock, although a hard puncher, never really knocked out anyone of note outside of Michael Dokes. Greg Page was done by '92 and he still managed to weather a lot of Donovan's best shots before finally being taken out. I'm struggling to find evidence of Donovan's devastating one punch power, that's all. I'd favour Ike to go 12.

    Ibeabuchi was tough,but I can't see him troubling a prime Tyson that much.

    Tony Tubbs and Jesse Ferguson would KO Ike!

    Word!

    The man in my avatar would put him in the hospital.

    Tyson's opponents are soooo underrated.
