    I'd say absolutely not. Ibeabuchi was a solid heavyweight but at some point would have been exposed. Probably the best of the talent pool of Nigerian born heavies but had no where near the athleticism or even boxing prowness as either Klitschko. Sure you can say well once Wlad get's hit on that chin. Ok what would happen if Wlad hit him first on the chin. Could Ike take a decent shot? Could he block Klitschko's accurate pinpoint punching? Even if he could knocked Wlad down could he keep him down? Ike is a decent boxer who went untested in the elite of the heavyweight division.

    Corey Sanders was far from the technical genius. I think Ike could have definitely managed what he and Lamon brewster and Sam Peter (in the early rounds) pulled on Vlad. Vlad panics when he gets caught. Ike was built like a tank and when the clinching and holding started, Ike was strong enough to hold his own wrestling inside.

    Vitali, i think would have gotten the better of Ike. Older brother has a better mental edge and can dig deep if he needs to. Ike didn't have the skills or reach to box Vitali like Lewis did and Vitali would throw to get someone off of him.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Well, he looks like he would fit right in with the current heavyweights.
