    Mike Tyson one of the most accomplished heavyweights of the late 80's and 90's you are ridiculously saying would be obliterated by a totally unacomplished fighter in Ibeabuchi.

    Ibeabuchie KO'd Byrd oh wow. Golota beat the **** of Byrd too. McCline beat him up pretty bad. Wlad beat the **** of him.

    Tyson has destroyed way better fighters than Byrd. Dont try to tell me that Chris Byrd is a better fighter than Michael Spinks who Tyson KO'd in less than a mineute.
    God dman it McKay quit showing your age!

    I was referring to the Lennox Lewis vs. Frank Bruno fight...you appear to be mixed up which I don't appreciate.

    You use the word obliterate, a word which never came out of my mouth/keyboard...you said earlier that Tyson would have "murdered" both men and I was simply saying that you were dead wrong about your choice of words...

    Why did you bring up Michael Spinks with me? I mentioned Henry Tillman, Marvis Frazier and ALex Stewart...trust me i understand how great Spinks was in his day and it is a very impressive win on Tyson's record regardless of what some haters say.

    Make sure you read over the post before making comments, dont worry I am guilty of the same thing every now and then...your my boy mcKay-once we work out those sloppy kinks in your armor we are going to have one solid poster on our hands...take it easy boy.

      I brought up Michael Spinks because Ibeabuchi's one quality win is against Byrd and Michael Spinks is a comparable small heavyweight but alot better than Byrd. And Tyson KO'd him in 1 so it is a relevant point.

        chris byrd has a good chin, ibeabuchi is the only guy to have stoped him, even the so called big puncher wlad klitschko couldn't finish him off, byrd has just as much heart as any heavyweight out there.

          ike beat tua in a war... impressive not because he beat tua, but the way beat tua... tua can be easily outboxed, but you have survive his big punch... ike went toe to toe with tua and showed a great chin, good power, hand speed and alot of ring savy(keeping his right hand high to gaurd against tua's left hook)... then against byrd, he showed he could search and destroy and not get discouraged from byrd's antics and defense...

          still, i can't say he would have beaten lewis... there's no way to tell how he would react to fighting someone like lewis... a superheavyweight with a long jab, big power...

            Fair enough McKay...oh just one more thing...

            If you would could you please elaborate a bit on the great Marvis Frazier...maybe give me a little history lesson if you will.

            When I was a little tike my mother used to tell me stories about Marvis and his father Joe and how he was basically pushed into the ring against Iron Mike...my mother was able to put me too sleep everytime with that Frazier story...

            Go ahead McKay give it your best shot, tell me about the accomplished MArvis Frazier....

              Exactly, every fighter including Lennox Lewis fought Tua at a distance and was scared ****less of the Tuaman...no one ever dared trade with him for even a tiny portion of a round...just like you said Ike went toe to toe for 12 rounds...no one has ever done that before and adding to that Tua was 100% absolutely positively in his prime for that fight.

                i think he cud beat lewis , ibeabuchi is like mike tyson with ring intelligence( he has tactics and know where is the right time to execute and be aggressive not like mike ) and wid good chin but enough power as tyson posses , but speed will be a really great advantage and factor for ike.

                  It was funny when Ike KO'd Byrd, poor Chris was so disoriented, you could see the slobber coming out of his mouth.

                  And yeah, the way he brought the war to Tua made it a fun fight to watch.

                    i think at that time he would've cleaned out the division, his power would be too much for lewis IMO.

                      Frank Bruno

                      I think it is true what someone has said about Bruno's punching power. I think Bruno had huge punching power. When he fought Mc Call, sometimes he would knock Oliver halfway back across the ring. He couldn't knock Oliver out though because Mc Call doesn't do knockouts. Bruno was slow though....I wonder where he got all his power from then
                      Later brother brologs.
