  1. Ohhhhhhhh man that would of been hot but i'd have to go with BOWE his inside fighting game was sick for a guy over 6'5 he could throw combo's like a middleweight and with power he out fought Evander in his prime..on the inside...his uppercutt and overhand right  along with his jab was his primary weapons....now Ike (The President) Ibeabuchi.he can bang and had a solid chin...his weapons was his Chin, his will, and a wicked right he threw that was half hook half uppercut(see Chris Bryd about it) now for his chin h**l he took some of David Tua's wicked left hooks without faultering i believe he would have moments against Bowe but Bowe's power Jab would be the deciding factor of a hard, vicious fight Bowe by Majority decision  with talks of a rematch immediately by both


  2. Bowe, ko 8.

  3. The Evander Holyfied fights took a serious toll on Bowe, I really credit Evander with the problems Bowe brought into the Golata fights.  It is difficult to distance yourself from the personality and coldly assess the amount of damage a fighter sustains from fight to fight, but the pre-Holyfield Bowe would have destroyed Andrew Golata, it wouldn't have ever been in doubt.  After the Holyfield fights, Riddick Bowe was never the same, and Bowe ran into Evander during his prime.  

    Bowe had the physical tools to beat Ibeabuchi but his chin would have been seriously tested, and I don't know if it would have held up.  Ike didn't have an all star cast of boxing's great handlers setting up tomato cans for him to knock over, Ike beat some dangerous and difficult fighters in Tua and Byrd.  It would have been a very difficult fight for Bowe.  Very tough call to make, and it makes it even tougher when you take into account they type of people they were.  Riddick Bowe was for the most part a nice guy, Ike was anything but.  Boxing isn't famous for respecting "nice guys" it think that is why they usually finish last.

    Bowe by decision on talent and size, but Ibeabuchi would have hurt Riddick more than all of the Holyfield and Golata fights combined.  It wouldn't have been pretty.
