...after 15 years incarceration.
Plenty of rumors. I typed "Ibeabuchi" in Nevada State Inmate Search, and his full first name "Ikemefula" pops up, but says his file is currently inactive.

If this deranged lunatic is currently free, isn't he supposed to be deported?
Very dangerous person to be walking the streets.
It's just a matter of time.
I also read he was released.
I heard he's being lined up as Wilder's next opponent ;)
new HW contender!
His crazy ass will be back in prison in no time. You heard it here first.
He must be pretty old by now though ey??
15 years out the game, plus age plus he's gotten fat judging from some jail images I seen of him.
I don't think he'll be a serious factor anymore even if he does make a comeback.
Which is a shame because he was top contender/champion material back in the day, who knows how far he could have gotten if not for his unfortunate psyche. But hey there are worse guys out there than Ibeabuchi. I think they should have parolled him earlier personally.
Should have paroled him earlier? Is this a joke? The man is a psychopath. He was and always will be a threat. He should be closely monitored the rest of his days.
Ike needs to be in a mental asylum.
He's probably back in Nigeria now. From what I heard long ago, the plan was to immediately deport him upon his release.
I have to laugh when people talk about him coming back and fighting after 15 years in the slammer.
He was a top, highly touted PROSPECT in his prime - that's it. He was never a world champ. He can go join Tony Ayala in the "Promising but too much of a scumbag even for boxing" file in boxing's history.
This can't be true; Ibeabuchi still has a pulse.:lickish:Quote:

His biggest fight left him a basket case and with damage. Any promoter who rushes him to tv should have his own head checked out.
Amir Mansour is a full year older than he is.... all he needs is 6 months training, a tune up fight against a halfway decent garbage collector, and he is right back in the thick of things.
One can only hope for him to make something happen in this shitty hw division but the time has passed I'm afraid.
I think some of u guys are too harsh on him. Ibeabuchi did his time and he has mental issues. Its a disease.
U dudes be defending the gays, talking about how they are ''born '' that way so why ya blaming ibeabuchi when he could have been born with mental shortcomings. Maybe his mom was a crack whore. Who knows.
So he raped some chick. Wasn't she a prostitute ? If ur gonna whore yourself out for money, dangerous situations come with the territory.
He did his time though.
How bout you educate yourself on the subject before you speak on it?Quote:

I've done a year and a half in the pen and it seemed like an eternity.
Ike did 15 years and he's off now on a clean slate.
I agree Brockton, ike would still beat adabum's ass and probably arreola too cuz they all suck.
He will bring Satan voices into the ring
No he couldn't. Back then maybe, now there's no way.Quote:

Both fought a much tougher level of competition than Ibeabuchi who really only faced Byrd and Tua, not his fault he got locked up before he could continue his career but still, they are not scum, they seem like pretty good blokes compared to Ike.
Hang on just a minute. You are calling Ike a deranged lunatic obviously you do not know the story.Quote:

Ike eventually capitulated & agreed to plead no contest. Thats when they railroaded him the Female judge giving him the maximum sentence 5-30 years
I knew Ike from the day he came to gym in Dallas telling everyone he was the future champion of the world. Sure Ike was no angel but he was no monster either.
Just think a minute. If you were kept heavily sedated for 14 months because they were scared what you MIGHT do, then get railroaded wouldnt you be having a few mental problems. The majority of Ike's problems were caused by the treatment he recieved & the injustice.
While incarcerated Ike has earned TWO college degrees for which he should be commended. I wish Ike all the best for the future & hope to meet up with him again one day. Ike really was the uncrowned World Heavyweight champ
You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Ike was ACCUSED of ATTEMPTING to rape a hooker. There was no proof he ever even touched her. How many times has Mayweather beaten up women I dont see you calling for him to be closely monitored. Biggest joke here seems to be you accusersQuote:

Wow, what a great post made by CJ. And again I agree with Brockton. Funny how Ron swanson just got put in his place with facts lol.
Hey Ron, u need to gtfo with all that " educate yourself on the subject" bullshit cuz the only person who needs to get the facts straight is you. You make me laugh. Tryin to judge another man. Smh U believe everything the media puts out there pal? Why don't u ask Santa claus for a gift this december while you are at it.
To luck to Ike on his freedom.
Ike ain't gonna do shit, ya'll know that. You know you do. This is just another ghost story of his being told with wide eyed imagination. Honestly if he is such a deeper, more educated man who came back from the brink of lifes pit, the last thing he should fall back on is the sport that maxed him out to looney toon rubber room status in the first place. We wonder why thus far some empty gloves like Wilder gets escorted into star status??? We're desperate ;D. Walk away and be thankful, adopt a dog and buy a goat..maybe even marry a gal who chooses to share your cab ride Ike and whatever you do, block Don Kings stalker like texts and calls :-X
he will probably create some crazy ass militia to rape and pillage all over africa.Quote:

Are you starting to wonder if Don King had something to do with it? Wait a sec, was King his promoter? Ah, fuck it, let's throw it out there even if he was!
Maybe it was the FBI or the IRS or the YWCA?
Poor Ike, as soon as he touched down in the US, he was doomed.
Can you imagine what he would get away with, if he's not reformed, in Nigeria? Murder and then some....
Everything I've read says there is no way to reform a sociopath. You just try to avoid their triggers. The world won't make that effort. He will hurt someone else badly.
How sad.... :eek:Quote:

At his best in the late 90s, there was a scheduled fight where for a couple of weeks leading up to the fight, his cornermen didn't even know where he was or if he was even training.
Before that, HBO covered the kidnapping story, Lampley and Merchant talking about Ike kidnapping his former girlfriend's kid where he drove himself and the kid into a cement pillar. The kid suffered some permanent injuries, seizures. Ike went to jail for a short while, charged with kidnapping and attempted murder, the courts decided he was trying to commit suicide and let him off with 4 months, but he had to pay a half million in the lawsuit.
At the time between the 1997 Tua fight where he made his name and the 1999 Byrd fight, many prominent people in boxing publicly commented on this guy's bizarre behavior, and that he was not playing with a full deck. I think it was Kellerman stated that you only had to talk to Ike for about 5 minutes to know this guy was unstable.
Money talks though, and this guy was a fantastic talent, and there was definitely money to be made off him by all the sharks in Boxing.
And the new ;D
that's like saying someone's gonna shoot up in Queens, it's obvious lolQuote:
