Are you suggesting Lewis should have given Mercer a rematch? It was a non-title fight. Lewis won. And he won the more convincing rounds of the two (4 and 6 spring to mind). He was getting back in contention for a title shot. Getting bogged down in a series of non-title fights with Mercer would have been pointless.
Dewey wasn't drugged into a zombie like state like Ike was for 14 months. They kept him sedated because they were SCARED of what he might do. He had never been officially charged in that time. Knowing Ike If he'd really resisted arrest those cops & the lying hooker would have been hurt. Neither was touched. Dewey was WRONGLY convicted Ike never was convicted . They talked him into pleading no contest promising him he'd be out boxing again in 6 months. Instead the woman judge gave him maximum sentence 5-30 yrs. That's enough to send anyone crazy:fire:fire
Ibeabuchi is one of the most overrated fighters of all time. He had exactly TWO fights against live bodies, one of which he arguably lost, and yet people put him in this mythical category with far more accomplished fighters. Sorry, but Ibeabuchi is, at best, unproven. Based on what they actually DID in the ring, either Klitschko should be a heavy favorite to destroy this overrated mirage.
Idiota klittard ... -Ruddock never was good against Tyson.He had heart.That's all. First fight :Tyson knocked him out. Second fight:Tyson beat him easily and knocked Ruddock down two times. Plus Tyson broke Ruddock's jaw and Ruddock headed to the hospital. -Lewis beat Ruddock but it was nothing to do with size.Ruddock faced into a right hand in the first and Lewis knocked him out in the second. It was a lucky ko. wladimir klitschko isn't good "big man". He never beat a good big man. His povetkin,haye,brock,austin etc. wins prove nothing. -Is wladimir a good big man ? Do you live in a dreamworld? The 6'4" fat 37 years old weak bum Sanders was too much for him. Ruddock was an incredible muscular 25-27 years fighter in his prime. Ruddock destroyed the muscleman Smith(who was far better than the crap Sanders) and Dokes.
Be honest did you ever actually see Ike fight ?? He outslugged the slugger He totally decimated the boxer. He smash Wlad's glass jaw inside 3 rounds. He'd take Vitali to the 7th or 8th & make him quit on his stool AGAIN!!!
In your dream klittard.vitali's performance was crap against Lewis.The bum Mavrovic or Billups went the distance with the prime Lewis. vitali could go only 6 full rounds against the out of shape 37 years old Lewis.
McCall's good wins:unbeaten Seldon(tko9) unbeaten ,Lewis(tko2), (30-1-0) Damiani(tko),old Holmes (ud12),unbeaten Maskaev(tko1), the about 6'7" Akinwande (ko10),Samil Sam (ud12). It's a far better list than the glass-chinned wladimir's.
Who have the Klitschko's beaten ?? No one in the top ranks of HW's How did Tua ruin Ike ?? what ruined Ike was a lying greedy hooker & a corrupt justice system. Ike would smash Wlad & beat up Vitali the juicer
Actually Tua may very well have ruined him. After their fight Ike complained aboutc ronic headaches and was acting morea nd more bizarre, demanding people call him "Mr. President" and attacking a sparring partner who cut him claiming he was wearing a ring under his glove. Ike was well off his rocker before he got himself in trouble.
Ibeabuchi is one of the most overrated fighters ever, he's too unproven to pick against either Wlad or Vitali as far as I'm concerned..... Byrd is his best win by far, and he struggled with a lot so-so journeyman.
