    I don't know, thinking he should make a comeback. Perhaps dethrone the Klitschko sisters. Lyle is old but they haven't ever seen pressure like the type retired Lyle would bring. They would wet themselves for sure .

    Ibeabuchi has already beaten Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield in fantasy matchups, and that's better than anything on Tyson's resume.

    Ike KO by 9.

    Tyson TKO 7 in a war that's great to watch while it lasts. Mike's greater hand speed and power makes the difference here.

    If its 15 rounds i'd say both guys are completely ****ed after 12 rounds, Kid Dynamite for the TKO in the 12th, The president could bang, no doubt about that, but 1988 Tyson is leagues ahead of the president offensively & defensively....this could be a battle of Chin & Heart, rather than raw power....

    Theres always the possibility that Ibeaubuchi may come in **** scared of Tyson.

    That can always be a factor too.

    I never saw Ike hurt and he took some big shots from Tua

    Tua was a poor man's Tyson, though.

    I think Ike could last the distance but Tyson would win a pretty clear decision.

    Ike would make him work for it.

    Speed kills, Tyson at that point in his career was a fighting machine, and only a few A.T.G''s would have been a serious threat to him. Ike best fight was the Tua fight, and that was life and death. I see Tyson's shorter,quicker punches coming from unexpected angles (like his bread and butter,right to the body,than right uppercut, very few heavys could pull that off esp with power.) Ending matters within 10 rounds.

    It would probably look kind of like the second Ruddovk fight.

    Greg page came in shape 228 lbs and ready to fight !!! Ruddock tried blasting him out which made it take longer against page !!!!!! But that same Greg page would give rds with Ike ibeabuchi easily !!!!!! It wouldn’t be quick like u think
