    That Sultan Ibragimov would have beat the **** out of Sasha. Ibragimov would have had a slight handspeed advantage, is just as good a combination puncher and has KO power in both fists. Chagaev stunned Povetkin once or twice and Sultan hit alot harder than Ruslan.

    I miss Ibragimov.

    Sultan had skills and would still be making noise but he decided to cash out. He now lives as a millionaire and is living a low-key, very private Muslim life.


    Shame he had to pull out.

    I still wish Ruslan never got injured back in 2007 when they were going to unify. Prime Chagaev vs Ibragimov would have been great too.

    Yea two cagey southpaws. I think Sultan edges out a decision.

    I miss Sultan as well. I believe that a peak Sultan would have beaten Helenius, by the way.

    Yes, he was.

    His speed, skill, and decent power made Wlad be very hesitant to get too close to him.

    Only thing Im sure of after watching that fight is I will never watch it again. I already deleted it. Boring ass fight put me to sleep TWICE.

    And since when did Epix start showing so many Eastern European fights?? I have the channel for awhile and all of a sudden there is always some boxing on it. I guess its no longer one of those useless channels thrown into the package deal.

    With the exception of the Klits I have not found myself impressed with any of the Eastern fighters, and that includes Ibragimov as well.
