how you see this one going? seems like it would be an interesting fight ...too bad we didnt get to see more of Ike Ibeabuchi
More rubbish from this dope Have you even seen ike fight ? Bowe wasn't exactly known for his discipline in training camps Even if Bowe wins it wouldn't be nowhere near easy
It would be a competitive and entertaining fight. Bowe struggled with guys that boxed him and used movement which really isn't Ibeabuchi's style. Ike would go at Bowe behind his ramrod jab but would likely see Bowe outfight him on the inside. But Bowe has been hurrt by far lesser punchers so Ike would be dangerous as he hits harder than Holyfield and Bowe would have a far harder time trading with the bigger and harder hitting Ibeabuchi. But I think Bowe wins a hard earned decision but has his hands full throughout the fight. Anything other than the Bowe of the first Holyfield fight would likely get beaten though. The extra weight would be of real detriment against a fighter who could throw as much as Ibeabuchi and who could walk through anything Bowe through at him.
Ike would beat Bowe without too much problem Curtis Cokes trained Ike to be almost the consummate fighter Look how he boxed Tua who at the time was hailed as the NEW TYSON!!! Then he lambasted the boxer Chris Byrd almost decapitating him. What happened to Ike was a tragedy we never got to see the best of him
Im going to say something really controversial but i absolutely believe 100%. Ike at his best beats Bowe,Holyfield,Lewis and maybe Tyson in their primes. Ike was only scratching the surface of what he couldve been. He was only 24 years old when he beat Tua. Ike was an M1 tank in the ring and doesnt get enough credit for his boxing skills it wasnt all just brute strength.
Ibeabuchi would've beaten his ass something terrible. Woulda been worse than the Golota fights, and without the fouls.
