    At their very best, an on it, focused Dokes vs Ibeabuchi at his best.
    Who wins this matchup?

    I think we are getting to the point where every reasonable HW match up possible has been made. Dokes - I guess?

    What annoys me is some random usually comes in with their sarcasm radar off and explains how dumb you are taking it as a chance to breakdown whoever you’re talking about.

    Dokes KO 1:45 Round 1 by left hook, straight right hand.

    Partying ensues.

    I don't think I've ever quoted the Bible in my life before now.

    So many unknowns in this one. Both have excellent mandibles, Dokes faster and maybe a bit more skillful, better jab. Ike with 2 decent wins in his life but they were very impressive against opposite styles.

    Dokes could slow down quite a bit after the first few rounds, where he was lightning fast. Gun to my head perhaps Ike beats him via stamina and workrate over the course of the bout.

    Ibeabuchi wears him down and stops him late.

    The high volume in and antidote for the speed.

    Ibeaubuchi by tko. Speed isn't enough when you don't have enough power to keep another guy off you.
