    52 year old Ibeabuchi's opponent Idris Afinni makes a remark during a press conference in Surulere promoting the fight, that Ibeabuchi is "...is an old man!", and later in a video adds that Ibeabuchi is "old enough to be my father" and he will destroy his older opponent. Afinni also comments he is "no David Tua" in reference to the 12-round war between Ibeabuchi and Tua, and The President responded that Tua would have killed and destroyed him in his prime.
    However just before the antics at the presser Ibeabuchi says he is currently lighter than he was during his last fight against Chris Byrd and is ready for the fight, he runs 10-15 miles and does 4 hours of training a day, then proceeds to call out Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship and requests his homeland of Nigeria to support him in his cause to return to heavyweight greatness, to be part of his "accolades", his notable victories.

    Despite all his misdeeds, I can't help but cheer for Ike.

    War Ibeabuchi.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Ike was his actual once 12 year old father.
