There's a good chance he would have outboxed Tua, but Ibeabuchi would have been much tougher. Ike would have been a nightmare for almost anyone. Endless punch output, power, chin, heart. It looked as though he was improving [skillwise] in the Byrd fight, too. Win, lose or draw, he would have been an absolute handful for anybody in history.Comment

I was thinking of making a thread about Ibeabuchi, with that fight/video as part of it. He was simply a beast of a man; ridiculous power, inhuman strength, endless stamina, chin forged from steel; the list goes on!
Really is a shame he went nuts and ended up behind bars, he certainly looked like he could go a VERY long way. To be honest I think he'd have Vitali's number (with improvement and refinement obviously) but even at the last stage of his career he'd give anyone problems.
I never get tired of the Byrd KO; saliva oozing out of his mouth with no idea where he is, after that impact that sounds like his head actually popped!
That and when he takes 4 of Tuas left hooks in a row (i think its round 11).Comment
