Ikemefula Charles "Ike" Ibeabuchi (born February 2, 1973) is a Nigerian professional boxer who competed from 1994 to 1999 in the heavyweight division and then made a comeback in 2025. He defeated the previously undefeated highly ranked contender David Tua in 1997 and another highly ranked contender and future world champion Chris Byrd in 1999. He was ranked by BoxRec as the world's No.8 heavyweight in 1997 and 1998, and as No.10 heavyweight in 1999.[1] After compiling an impressive record of 20–0 with 15 knockouts, Ibeabuchi's natural talent and potential inside the ring was eventually overshadowed by emotional instability and violent tendencies in his personal life. After a series of run-ins with law enforcement, he was imprisoned in Las Vegas in July 1999, after submitting an Alford plea for charges on sexual misconduct. This also temporarily marked the end of his professional boxing career for over two decades.
He was eventually released in 2020 and would later return to the ring in 2025.
