    Ibeabuchi was bigger, stronger, faster, more skilled, more durable, and had much better stamina than the 70s version of Foreman. Don't know how that translates, but if Ibeabuchi - Frazier could really happen I'd sure like to bet some money on Ibeabuchi. Yep, I'll take the guy who is bigger, stronger, faster, and has amazing stamina, the people who think Frazier would win could have the guy who is called an "ATG" (whatever that means) by some.

    Cleveland Williams could probably do that.

    I'd bet a lot of money against it. Who's the most capable opponent Williams stopped within 5? Who's the most formidable puncher he lasted 12 against?

    That's like picking Edwin Valero over Pacquiao. Why would do that

    Wonder how many 6-2, 210 pound southpaws that Cleveland Williams fought in his career? Byrd would probably have about as much of a problem with Williams as he had with Jimmy Thunder.

    Really? One bang from Williams and Byrd sleeps. Your right he never fought any like Byrd he faced much better people than Byrd. And his Power he was much more mobile than Tua he'd KO Byrd before Ike. He wouldn't beat Ike though

    Southpaws didn't exist until 1990.

    What? Did he make the jojo against a modern-like heavy hitter on that level or not? Did he get dropped on a much lower level as well, yes or no??? Something twisted in the upper storey?

    And again, someone has to ask, if you honestly believe your own drivel.

    I
    Modern younger fans want their generation of fighters to win just like we do. That being said, only George Foreman beat Frazier. No one else. And George does thesame to Ike and Tina Ike and TUA and 90% of past and future heavyweights. Fraziers unrelenting power laden in yr face pressure crushes I think 96 % of former Heavyweight CHAMPION S

    AND ANYBODY THAT HOLDS BYRD UP AS A GREAT AND WOULD BE SURPRISED TO SEE FRAZIER CRUSH HIM IN 5 IS AN IDIOT AND REALLY SHOULD NEVER POST AGAIN. Take up table tennis watching. Barbie dollrunway commentating. If FRAZIER DIDN'T TAKE OUT BYRD BEFORE THE END OF RD 2 I WOULD BE DISAPPOINTED
