Atlas picks Ibragimov!

Sorry, but Sultan is not "slower afoot." He has the foot and hand speed advantage in this fight. Sultan will not sit in range for Wlad's jab like Austin, Brock, etc. did. He'll be moving in out and using speed.

That's not to say Wlad won't impose his right hand, he well may. But this fight will be far more competitive than most here think.

 

Thats been a big debate over the years, I see it both ways. I think Wlad has a weak chin because he's been down so many times, the question is why did he get dropped so many times? Balance, stamina issues, and is weak mentally in a sense. I never fought Lewis had a glass chin, he just got caught on the chin, **** happens, plus it only happend twice, for a guy who's fought nothing but the best throughout his career, I feel thats pretty good. Wlad on the other hand has been knocked down by guys that Lewis wouldnt even use as sparring partners because there so bad, let alone his oppenent in a real match.

 

Yeah good . . . that idiot is 80 % wrong in his picks.

 

I've noticed that too, but I wonder why? Because they're not American?

But he used to speak well of Lennox Lewis, and he likes Sam Peter, and they're not American born either.

 

You mean Hawkins, Long and Toney? Gee WOW!

Wait till Maskaev lands an uppercut...

 

Yeah thats the way I see it. The term Glass chin is those guys that get knocked down and out... Like glass, when its broken, its broken, doesn't recover. Then you have the China Chin, this is simply a badly constructed chin, made of cheap parts and malfunctions regularly for one thing or another. Its like a cheap radio made in china; it works, its just real crappy quality, made of cheap plastic, cheap sound quality, doesnt handle high output (distorts), and sometimes it skips on cds for no reason or you have to hit the speaker on the side for it to work. But sometimes it can be deceiving and appear to be good quality or similar looking to a popular brand. THe china chin fighter in this case, goes down regularly, he gets up and functions, but he gets floored by punches that don't even look that hard, poor punch resistance. Sometimes the china chin fighter can look like a mean killing machine (like Klitschko) which can be deceiving (like a clone china brand).

 

No Idea.... I also noticed when Wlad was ringside on FNF a few weeks ago and the other commentator was asking him all kinds of questions, Atlas did not say a word throughout the entire interview.

 

I agreed with Wiseguy too. If, and I mean only if Wlad is having an off nite - Sultan might be a live dog. The Wlad has a "glass jaw" bs was lame 6+ months ago. Are the haters still using that :dead line. Get some fresh material.

 

Teddy usually goes with the underdogs.

 

Then why did you call Wladimir Klitscho glassy chinned? He has never stayed down from a punch. You're contradicting yourself.

 

He had been calling a dq or Tyson quitting for years till that time Carl, he even picked Michael Spinks over Tyson, and said Tyson would not be able to deal with the pressure.

He's been picking against Klitschko and his brother for all their fights, he may actually be right this time. Of course, the we wil never stop hearing about it from him.

 

Wlad dominates Sultan the same way he dominated Brock. Sultan is a
terrific little fighter with impressive amatuer credentials but Wlad's boxing
ability and his chin are constantly underestimated. Wlad will control this
fight from distance. His jab will be the major factor. He will jab, move
laterally, throw right hands and if Barney Rubble charges forward Wlad
throws some serious uppercuts and short left hooks. This is not going to
be pretty. Wlad is so underestimated on this site it's pathetic but once
again he will prove his dominance over the heavyweight division Saturday
night.

 

Sultan!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Check out the 12th round, Vlad Vs. Peter, Vlad should have gone ahead and finished him off, but he was between styles, just getting used to his new style, been getting better with each and every fight.

At-l-ASS have always picked against Vlad, he hates Vitali also. Atlas said that his fighter Grant would knock Vitali or Vlad out, yea, right.

 

Wlad getting blasted or beaten isnt exactly Tyson in Japan so its not a stretch. Sultan will have to storm Vald and pound him out. I just cant see him winning any other way.
