Where is Sultan Ibragimov??

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by dudemcdudeson, Feb 24, 2009.


  1. Has anyone heard anything? He didn't exactly have a crushing loss. Why hasn't he turned up anywhere? Even Sam Peter came back from an effortless ass whooping. I'd love to see him fight Sergei Liakhovich.

    LOL no way. Sergei is done. Hes more focused on eating cookies now than boxing. That guy was packin some man tits vs Valuev. He seemed very uninterested and out of shape. On my score card, he lost every single round, yet old man Holy gave Valuev trouble.


    Sultan needs to come back tho I agree. Id love to see him fight Chagaev. If not, a warm up fight should be good too. That guy needs to get back in the ring tho. Somone like Sinan Samil Sam or Ray Austin would be good. Or even Hasim Rahman lol.

    I think he could outbox Valuev, as easily as he outboxed Briggs.

    So he still has a change to win a title, if he could get fight with Valuev.

    I wonder why he havent started hes comeback. :think

    As of this point it's uncertain when and if he will fight.

    After his performance against Wlad the question has to be, do we really care?

    You sure about that? Says here he's done.

    I remember Iggy saying he was going to retire before the Klitschko bout. He was a decent fighter, got his chance to hold a belt and make some money. He apparently accomplished what he wanted to and moved on, good on him.

    He has worse than a crushing loss. He has a deathly boring one. His only chance of another championship level fight is to work his way up through the mandatories again.
