Ike Ibeabuchi would be The Man?

Question

If he weren't in prison I think Ike would have taken out Lennox and dominated the heavyweights. Opinions???

Answer 1

If Holyfield could fight Lewis to a standstill, The President would have been able to beat him.
Ike was a hard body puncher, and he would have been pounding Lewis all night, wearing him down, taking his wind from him.
I think Ike would have had trouble with one of the VKs, I can't remember which one had better movement than the other.
He wouldn't have been dominant, but he would have had at least one of the belts for a while.
If he'd made champion, I would have liked to see him square off against Oleg Maskaev. That dude can hit like a truck when he's on.

p.s. for Robert below, Lewis got his a$$ handed to him by so-so Oliver McCall at the opening bell; and got kayoed by a so-so Rahman. Granted, Lewis avenged both those losses, but he lost just the same.

Answer 2

Ike was muscle bound. His skills were over rated, as a so-so guy like Tua almost cleaned his clock. He should've knocked Tua silly. And never been caught. Lewis was far too skilled a fighter for Ike. It is speculated that Ike might have brain damage now. This is terrible.
Ike could be a likable fighter. But he wasn't the real thing. Not by a long shot.

Answer 3

Yes he would have defeated Lewis, Lewis tends to fold when under pressure and Ike was a posessed animal with superior stamina, and iron chin and power

Stylewise? I dont know if he would have dominated the division, in my opinion a very fast boxer with fast feet and an excellent jab would have defeated Ike

I wish he never went crazy

Answer 4

I dont think he wouldve been able to dispose of Lennox Lewis, but I do believe he would have owned the Klitchsko sisters. And dominate the division after Lewis retired

Answer 5

Yup

Answer 6

YES YES.
