    Could the prime, very good fluent boxing Bugner keep the President off him for 12 rounds?

    This fight really depends on what bugner turns up if the not get involved but happy to survive version turns up then it's a lop sided win for Ike , but if it's the bugner that went to war with Frazier then it's a cracking fight that for me Ike still should be favoured to win but he knows he's been in a fight

    I like Ike, but Bugner on a good night has a chance.

    Probably Ibeabuchi. I don't think Bugner can handle his power or work rate.

    I can see this going the distance as I suspect JB will be looking to survive. He was pretty good at surviving was our Joe.

    Ibeabuchi only had 20 fights, but judging by his performances in his signature wins over Byrd and Tua, I’ve seen enough of him to predict an Ibeabuchi win by 2/3 rounds.
