    Both at their best. Who wins?

    Ibragimov had a good set of whiskers on him with good pop. We all know Tommy can crack, but can he deal with Sultans fast hands and southpaw stance?

    Morrison all the way, he faced and beat better competition than Ibragimov did..

    Sultan would win every single time, often by knockout. He was a different level of pro than Morrison ever was.

    I would bet the house on Ibragimov. Sultan's resume is deeper with only Tommy's huff and puff track meet victory over Foreman being better than Sultan's wins over Briggs, Whitaker and Austin. Secondly, Tommy had his trouble with second rate southies like Yuri Vaulin who rocked him to his heels. Sultan has more than enough power to finish the shaky chinned Morrison and is twice the boxer and a better, smoother natural athlete. All day, everyday. Sultan wins this.

    ****, you're right. Had to look it up on boxrec. I remember Sultan having a hard time but thought he had pulled it out.

    I think he got dropped early in that fight. Personally had austin winning at the time, close fight though

    Sultan got dropped late against Austin, he was in bad shape for that fight and after a fast start, gassed out.

    Austin showed some good durability in that one, he got up from a monstrous shot after it looked like he was out cold..similar to Ruddock/Morrison knock down. Underrated fight.

    Sultan got dropped at the end, I think. I do remember that fight better now.

    I'll take a tough outing against Austin over a blowout against Bentt.
