    You are clueless A big mouth with nothing to say
    Ike The President Ibeabuchi would have been the undisputed Heavyweight Champ Povetkin nor the Klitschko's would have smelled the title. Ike was right that day he arrived at the gym in Dallas Fresh from Nigeria. He said " No man will ever beat me" It took a lying hooker to derail his career. Whe Lennox retired Ike would have carried the mantle

    Yeah, I choose not to respond to the clown and give endurance to his foolhardiness.

    The HW landscape was definitely changed for the worst with the derailment of Ibeabuchi's career and presence. Boxing fans missed out on epic entertainment and the HW division died.

    A $100 hooker made those who would have otherwise been $100,000 contenders into billion dollar commodities. :smoke

    Povetkin beats Tua much more impressively than Ike.

    AP beats Ike in a close decision.

    Ibeabuchi must be the most mythical and overrated hw on esb. The tko5 on 208lb Christ Byrd, I mean good result but is that's all there is to say he is worthy of this hype? Tua to close UD, okay well done, but again not earth shattering as Tua never held a strap. A few fights before that Ibeabuchi was struggling against 9-20-3 journeyman.

    Tua and Ike would have slaughtered Huck in less than 4 rounds. He'd likely never enter the ring again he'd be beaten so badly.

    Yet Huck beat Povetkin to within an inch of his life.

    I told you for ages Povetkin was not going to be a world champion. He was never a threat to Wlad.

    Glad you see how exposed he was vs Huck now.

    Povetkin couldn't even KO Larry Donald in Donald's last fight.

    Forget about beating Tua. That's out of Povetkins reach.

    Funny because Povetkin fought Byrd nearly a decade later and went 11 rounds with him.

    Oh that 208lb Chris Byrd indeed.

    Current Povetkin would not need 11 rounds and you know it.

    Last decent fighter current Poverkin fought dropped him like a bad habit...difference is Ike would go for the kill unlike Wlad.

    No doubt he was a dangerous hw, but there's four cans on his sheet he couldn't put away, Marion Wilson being the most glaring. 9-20-3 :lol: Poverkin has never even fought a guy with such a poor record.

    Nah. Povetkin doesn't have ATG skills or defence but he has enough to decision Tua.

    The poll takes an interesting turn with Polvetkin supporters showing more confidence in his boxing ability to outbox Ibeabuch than his power to stop Ike.

    Ibeabuchi supporters show the opposite in voting confidently that Ibeabuchi would definitely stop Polvetkin by TKO/KO which doesn't say that Ike cold be outboxed or overpowered.

    Personally I know that Ibeabuchi was no Mike Perez and that first round flunk KO would be impossible against Ike. I also wouldn't give Polvetkin a chance against outboxing Ike because the difference in reach and Ike's constant use of his jab would keep Polvetkin outside when he wished and inside Ibeabuchi was just a better inside fighter.

    Povetkin vs ike would be a 55/45 fight in favor of Ike, wlad would either stop Ike or outbox him. Ike was always mentally inferior and after his fight with tua he got mentally ill.

    What ATG skills doesn't Povetkin have?
