Why do some rate Ike Ibeabuchi so highly?

I,and most people I speak about it to,had Tua winning the fight against Ibeabuchi.
Ike's win over Byrd was impressive,but hardly the stuff of legend is it?
Imagine what Lewis would have doen to Byrd? 3 rounds,max.
Remember what Lewis done with Tua?Made him look like a little fat hobbit.
Lewis would have seen Ike as a threat,and therefore OWNED the fvck wit.
By the way cosand,would love to know where you rank Tyson(another the fantasists like to claim the greatest)
Let me guess....in his prime he could have beat anyone and is a top 5 all time heavyweight??

Yes Wlad should be disregarded. Puritty, Sanders, and TOS all brought to light Wlads lack of stamina and chin. He's only good at beating up punchbags, when a fight rears its head its implosion time.cosand wrote:<<<<Because he wears all black, talks crazy and punches hard so all the simpletons get excited. His own manager Steve Munisteri didn't really rate his chances in a recent interview, citing a close fight with Marion Wilson and seeing him decked by body shots in sparring by Kirk Johnson.>>>>
So by those standards, Wlad should be totally disregarded for his losses to Pruiity and Sanders and being decked by TOS right ?

See what I mean ?????
Classic example of the nonsense I mentioned in my earlier post.
You dont rate Lewis or Schmelling in the top 25? Enough said.
You think a man who scraped a decision over Tua could wreck Vitali & Lewis? Enough said.
Chris Byrd reigned for 4 years? Pure Don King politics. He couldn't have beaten the champ, but he was gifted his stolen belt beating a 40 year old man and then was repeatedly gifted decisions in his defences. Some reign.
Your the one in this thread talking nonsense mate.
