It's Official, Ike Ibeabuchi is out of Prison.........Should he tempt a Comeback?

He just turned 40? What do you guys think? I say no sadly....... But I do think he has a better chance then Tommy because Ike has been clean........

If he's 100 pounds overweight, then no... but if he kept it within the 250 range, give or take 10 pounds, he can do it.

Shit: Amir Mansour started boxing after his prison term and he is now OLDER than Ibeabuchi is. Ibeabuchi can do it. He can. Does he want to do it? That remains to be seen.

I feel, most definitely, after about 6 months, he can do a 8 rounder against sensible opposition. Not regular tomato cans, but sensible opposition- guys with over 20/25 fights and won more than half of them.

get him in the ring v briggs :S.... it might be funny

Of course he should :rolleyes:

This is for sure? Any idea what kind of shape he's kept in prison, physically or mentally? Or whether he'll even be allowed to stay in America? It's not crazy to think he could shake off some rust and land himself some kind of fight in a year or two, assuming he isn't completely crazy himself:D Definitely don't expect to see it though, who knows if he could even get a licence.

If he can win a couple of comeback fights the drums will start beating ;)

... and the makings of a great story begins. This is bigger than Foreman's comeback. Bigger than Ayala... this is HUGE, if the story goes to fairytale.
;D

I beat you to it 11 days ago! :lickish:

Texas will give him a licence. They'd license Charles Manson.

I don't think he should due to his criminal past and poor mental state. But money talks especially in boxing so it would never suprise me.

No. The guys a time bomb.

No because I don't think he has anything left for boxing. Although Mansour is old, at least he was still doing some kind of training. I don't think that was the case for Ibeabuchi. After all that time it's just too late.

I wouldn't want to see that.

He would be able to do take a lot of punches, the man had great chin. But it would be sad to see him a punching bag.

It would be funny to see him fight Briggs though LOL 2 old giants slugging it out.

He may have kept in great shape and what is out there is awful.

We have to see some pictures with his shirt off.... even so, an athelete like him- give him 6 months and he will be back to at least doing 6 rounder's IF he kept up the customary prison shape.

Don't forget- guys come out of prison in shape.
:rolleyes:
