Ike Ibeabuchi VS Lennox Lewis

[teakay]

I think Ike KO's Lewis within 5.
There is no way Lewis can box circles around Ike. Ike is alot more mobile and has faster hands.
I see Ike coming out throwing bombs and Lewis being outmuscled and has no choice but to throw back, then CRACK!!!

Ike By Knockout Period. Ike Has The Power, Lennox Has No Chin. Power+no Chin=lennox Lewis Floored Again By A Single Big Shot, The Same Way Byrd Got Waxed. Maybe Lennox Could Wait Until Ike Was Past His Prime To Challenge Him....it Worked For Holy & Tyson. Maybe He Should Challenge Ali! Hey I Hear Bowe's Fata$$ Is Back In The Ring, Maybe Lennox Could Muster Up The Sack To Fight Him Now.....anyways, Yeah.....ike By Ko!! Nuff Said!

Lewis by comfortable decision. When did Ike EVER show he could handle a good jab. His best fight was against an opponent who stood flat-footed in front of him and threw hooks. Lewis would be circling Ike and popping the jab all night. Since Ike was not that fast or had a very good jab, I don't see what he could do. And Kirk Johnson owned Ike in sparring, so they're proof right there that a boxer-puncher would give Ike all sorts of trouble . .

My god how overratted has Ike become

[aaalex]

I was watching Ike's fights with Tua, and Byrd last night. I think that Ike would have caught up to Lewis, and KOed him in about 10 rds

It was a very good fights, but I thing, that Lewis is clever fighter and he would have win.

Lewis boxes circles around him. Ike really didn't look good in that Byrd fight up until the very end and its debatable weather or not he beat Tua.

Jose....

uh...please go & watch Ike-Byrd again.
Ike was controlling that fight....applying steady pressure, without getting frazzled....& landing shots with more frequency as the fight wore on.
Then he BLASTED the guy into tomorrow. Nobody has done this to Byrd since.
Against the PUZZLE Byrd was back then.....you couldn't ask for a better performance.

Don't let your love of Lewis, which leads to FEAR of Ike, lead you into talking out your ass, bro.

Wrong...

His best fight was aginst Chris Byrd......who very few have been able to handle.
Ike showed how to trap a slickster, & take him out.

& BIG DEAL, if it's even true, about Ike's sparring sessions with Kirk.

I thought you guys have been following boxing long enough to know what happens in sparring means **** ?

I think Ibeabuchi would have had a very good chance against Lewis. His chin was at least as good as McCall´s, his hands faster and with decent power ! Against Byrd he proved that he wouldn´t allow anybody box to circles around him, and Lewis definitley couldn´t have outmuscled him. This fight had been totally open. A shame it never could happen .

[markosg19]

how can anyone say that Ibeabuchi would have beaten lewis. Based on his wins over to average fighters??????

Maybe it's the fact that two very average fighters knocked Lewis out ?
