Was Ike really a murderous puncher?

Aiight Ibeabuchi probably broke top 15 biggest punchers in the division. Dude was powerful and had one of the best workrates in the division and that's in the books due to him and Tua throwin the most punches ever in a fight. Wasn't no 15 round 1970 fight naw, it was what 96' 12 round fight. That's his historical mark on the division and who knows if Vitali or Lewis fought him how'd he fare. Maybe his mental problems would show up in the ring and he'd start yellin "They comin for me!" at the crowd. I think Lewis would've gotten a UD over him but Vitali would try to keep him at bay wit his long jab but Ibeabuchi's work rate and power might be able to topple Vitali.

He was definitely a solid fighter with talent. He may be a bit overrated, but it's boxing. Fighters get overrated all the time. It's a shame we don't know how it would've played out for him.

Good post Tito.
