Evander is getting KO'd

I hope that Ibragimov wins since I wrote a sample article for my college newspaper and predicted Iggy as the winner. If I'm right, I might get to write more. If I'm wrong, I still might be able to. Oh well.

 

Verry True. Witch is one of the reasons why I picked Holy UD. As shown in my sig for the past month or so.

 

I see him getting stopped too, but I also see him unleashing the lion of faith in him, he surprises me too much

 

Sultan has very fast hands for a heavyweight and underated power.
Everybody has a lousy performance now and then and Iggy's fight
with Austin was just that. He's got a new trainer and seems to be
improving. He's just way too fast and active now for Holyfield to
contend with. Holyfield has been beating up on over the hill never-weres
like Savarese lately. Sultan is a huge jump up in class and Evander is
too old and slow to contend with the young lion. I fear Holyfield will
take a sustained and severe beating in this fight.

 

Guys, get real. If McToney could stop Oldyfield 4 years ago, Ibragimov can easily do it too, no doubt about it.

 

For all the Holyfield tippers please see below the website for sportingbet where I bet, please wager money on Holyfield so you can enhance the odds on Ibragimov because talk of Holyfield winning this fight is crazy

That said Ibragimov has some major defensive flaws so Holyfield better go for broke and be razor sharp to capitalise otherwise he is as close to a sure thing to lose as one can get

 

Holyfield won't win. He doesn't have (and never has had) one punch power. His stamina these days is very poor. He has very questionable workrate and he probably won't outbox Ibragimov. I don't see a Holy victory. I don't even want to see a Holy victory.

 

I second that.

 

Anyone seen Holyfield vs Maddalone and Holyfield vs Savarese - what hope do these fights offer Holyfield against Ibragimov

I watched Holyfield vs Oquendo and that reinforced Holyfield does not have the work rate - has he radically improved since then?

 

If Holyfield wins his fight against Ibragimov that is about the worst thing that can happen unless he retires immediately because if he fights the wrong fighter he could end up seriously damaged. The onlysaving grace is that his camp have been carrying him and they would toss in the towel the first sign of real risk

 

Sultan has to do his homework and watch the Toney fight, the bodywork did Evander in, also the 3rd Bowe fight, body work slowed Evander down, Evander is amazing that he is still conditioned and fighting well but if Sultan does not win convincingly,he will never be marketable, he needs a stoppage over Evander to look good

 

It is a 50-50 type of a fight....both can win this one ....I like Holyfield a lot but i will not bet on anyone this time ...a draw is also very possible..

 

In anyone's opinion, is Chagaev better than Iggy?

 

Yes....Chagaev and Klitscko are the best heavies at this moment.....

 

I see Ibragimov having more advantages mainly speed and workrate. Also, I think the Russian's style will give Holy an extreme hard time. Evander has had some of his toughest fights vs southpaws. Byrd and Moorer, two lefties ,beat him and Ibragimov likes to throw the left to the breadbasket.
