I think Klitschko KO's Sultan around the halfway point. Sultan isn't that hard to hit and Austin put him down, arguably twice. No reason why Wlad can't keep him there.

No reason why Wlad can't keep him there.I bet you 1000 bucks that this fight happens early 2008… Wlad was willing to fight Holyfield if he had won and Wlad must want his old WBO belt back.

Ibragimov has a weak chin and not enough skills to defend it. Wlad would smash him in around 3 rounds, with ease.

I think it'll be over not long after it starts. Wlad will punish him with the jab, and Klitshcko will probably bring in his right hand pretty early in this fight, then it'll be over shortly thereafter.

Smart move by Ibragimov...

He had to fight Thompson next, that is a difficultive fight for him...

A fight vs Klitschko would give more $, and if he looses he lost to the best.
Thompson is high risk, little reward...

Klitschko chin even gives Ibragimov decent chances,. ( Better chances than vs Thompson )

Wlad anywhere form mid round KO to comfy UD. Sultans best chance, at under 10%, is an early to mid round (T)KO.

Iggy is the easy route and you know it, but I guess thats whats best for Wlad right. Yes I want Wlad to be challenged, arent you sick of Wlad blowing away these nobodys?

I think a real test for Wlad would be against Chagaev, Peter, Or Valuev, all these fighters posses at least one or more skills capable to give Wlad trouble and excitement to the viewers.More than likely some combo (2 of the 3) you note would give Wlad a tougher fight than Iggy. Nodody knows for sure - that's why they fight. But if Wlad beats all 3 of these fighters, won't they all of a sudden become "nobodies" :-(

I've read enough of your posts :p

Sultan is vastly underrated, probably as underrated as Wlad Frankenstein is overrated. The power shots that Briggs and Holyfield landed hardly moved the man. Yet I've seen Wlad shit hisself in de ring when someone lands a decent shot. All he has to do is fight a smart FAST fight, and not allow Wlad to clinch and we have a new champion.Iggy was at 5 votes for some time. I see who cast #6 for him :lol:

Your post was full of lame exaggerations. Your desire to see Wlad lose has made you delusional :nut Iggy may be slightly underrated, but vastly?

Gotta give credit to Ibragimov for taking such a risky fight where he's the outsider instead of just defending jis strap against easier opposition. He got the balls of a champ, but not the talent.

If he fights as awkward as against Briggs and Holyfield he might go the distance. If not, Klitschko knocks him out like the rest. Ibragimov is not stupid, so I say Klitschko by wide UD.

Wlad will have little to no fear of Ibragimov, and once he has Ibrag stunned, Wlad will be all over him like a cheap suit. Just as he was when Byrd was hurt.......

But its a matter if Wlad can chase Ibragimov down, cause I expect to see Ibragimov run like a deer, and only occassionally, quickly slip in close enough to try and counter.

inchpunch

01-31-2008, 01:52 PM

This fight should be a TKO for Klitschko, but beware. I smell an upset here. Ibragimov is underrated, because he looks like a plumber, but he has fast hands. If Klitschko comes in with no attitude he is gonna lose.

The only fighter who ever used speed effectively was Corrie Sanders who is 6'4 and had the footspeed to go along with the handspeed and one - punch KO power. Iggy is way too small to blitz Wlad like Sanders did and doesn't move fast on his feet. Even if he hits Wlad, it's not like Wlad falls from the first shot he takes. He got up from every knockdown in his career.

Punisher33

01-31-2008, 01:56 PM

expecting wlad to win... i just wonder what would happen if iggy blitzes wlad as soon as the opening bell rang, would completely come out of left field, how would wlad react, iggy has quick hands... the game plan iggy had against briggs wont work, wlads jab will keep him at bay and eventually will wear iggy down.. I have wondered that myself, the last couple fights Wlad had, were against guys who let Wlad settle in and end up turning them into a punching bag. I hope Iggy uses his brain and doesnt try to box the bigger, more skilled fighter in Wlad. I think Iggy's best chance of winning is going for the gusto right out the gate, Wlads chin is extremely weak and his defense is still below average, if he lands big on Wlad, he will either go down or go into one of his famous panic attacks, where he expends most of his energy, it's worth a shot, what the hell does a fighter like Iggy got to lose?:yep

Ibragimov *could* win but it's highly unlikely. He'd have to go right out there and attack Waldo. Make the big man punch and punch and fight a nervous pace, all while smashing him with straight lefts.

Will he do it? Naw, probably not. He's been more and more punchshy since being dropped by Austin. I don't see his confidence being that great against Waldo's power tbh.

He'll likely run like someone else said, and try to minimize contact, just picking his battles carefully. Even with that I expect him to get caught coming in somewhere along the line and stopped, with the exact same right hand Austin dropped him with.

What's the point of the vid? Sultan gets tooled by Savon.

Ibragmov put up a good fight and Savon had to be at his best to win. Considering Savon was one of the greatest Olympic boxers in the history of the sport, I think that Ibragimov did alright.

Boxfan1

02-01-2008, 01:03 PM

I think since both Wlad and Sultan are working on speed for this fight, that this will actually hurt Sultan. If sultan comes in at around 220 or less, he simply won't have the power to put Wlad down. I expect that Iggy is going to try and perform an early Mike Tyson impression and bob and weave his way into Wlad. That will work great against alot of guys, but Wlad doesn't move straight back anymore and if you noticed his last 4 or 5 fights, he never touches the ropes. Wlad keeps his opponents in the middle of the ring and circles them. If he does this to Iggy, it's jab jab jab all night until Iggy goes night night.
