    Lewis by UD, in which he boxes carefully behind his ramrod jab, & clinches lots.

    If both guys were around 18 fights into their pro career, Ike would win by KO.

    Lewis gives him the business.

    I think this is the perfect style for Prime Lewis to look good in, I think he wins going away

    Lewis could sense the danger Ike brings and try to end him quickly like Ruddock/Golota
    Or he plays it safe and schools this fool

    People most likely said the same things before Lewis/Ruddock and Lewis/Golota.

    You cant count out LLs overhand right

    There's really no evidence or basis to pick an Ike win is there?

    Of course a forum is about opinion but there's really nothing to suggest Ike would beat Lennox.

    Ibeabuchi would have KO'd Lennox Lewis had they ever met. Although I doubt it would have ever happened as we saw Lewis was a well managed fighter who always seemed to fight guys at an opportune time when they were passed it and nowhere near the top of their game.

    He was the Manny Pacquiao of his time.

    I think Ike would've given Lennox and the Klits all they could handle and then some. Ibeabuchi was a beast, he really was. It's very rare to see a man that size fighting as a volume puncher. Having said that there's just far too many 'if's' and 'but's' to say he would've beaten a proven heavyweight great like LL.
