Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
This fight is one I can never see to much...caught it on Classic last night...The bombs those two threw was amazing :o :o...and the fact both men stayed on their feet!!!!!.....There would have been no shame if either one would have been KO'd that night considering the heat on the leather handed out......
Today either man would be world champion if they were around in the stage of their careers....Oleg, Chagaev, Sultan all would be walked through by either...Tua looked trim as hell in that fight and I almost forgot how Imposing looking IKE was....that guy was a freaking specimne and a half
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
Ikes a damned shame,so much ability,so little brain
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
I just watched this minute McGuigan vs Cruz again that was one hell of a battle.
As for Ike vs Tua i scored it a draw.
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
I was a HUGE Ike fan back in the day. Loved him...but he totally blew it. He was a fwockin ragin lunatic.
He was damned impressive coming up & was just really coming into his own when he beat both Tua & Byrd & back then...that was a feat.
I loved the Tua fight...but I get the biggest kick out of watching the Byrd fight.
He battered poor Chris damned near senseless.

No shit. He was knocked fwockin re-tarded! That ref saved his life.
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again

No S***. He was knocked fwockin re-tarded! That ref saved his life.
I gave Byrd a hell of a lot more respect after seeing him get up from that punch...that one would have kept a lot of bigger men down for the count. It's a shame Ike couldn't keep it together - he was a monster in the ring.
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
Ever wonder how a Tyson-Ibeabuchi or Holyfield-Ibeabuchi fight would have gone???
Of course it would have been better if a prime Tyson fought him but it still would have been just as good with the old crazy Tyson

I would have loved to see my boy Lennox fight Ike ;)
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
Those three fights would have been the stuff of legend, I think.
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
thats my first time watching the whole fight always saw the late
the earky rounds ibeabuchi was beating tua azz
i thought ibeabuch won
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
I don't know how Byrd got back up. Saliva was pouring out of his mouth. Like he just went to the dentist to get a tooth filled.
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
Evander vs. Ike woulda been crazy....
Re: Just watched Tua/Ibeabuchi again
It's a coincidence I've just been watching a lot of Ibeabuchi, and I think he would beaten Holyfield's ass... I mean Holyfield's punches wouldn't even phase this guy, and he had decent boxing skills. I would say just because he would fight on the outside, was so strong, and threw so many punches that Holyfield would be overwhelmed by the combination of elements.
