I have posted many times that Wlad would KO Ibragimov early and stuff, but i have a gut feeling, that Ibragimov mighy pull this one off. No idea why, i just believe he might upset Wlad.:deal
There's always a chance. Crazier upsets happen all the time. Having said that, I think Wlad wins this one similar to the way he beat Brock.
This is the fun thing about Wlad. You never know when he'll fold up like a cheap camera. I doubt if Sultan has the raw power needed to trouble Klit, but if the big guy gets a little winded, and Imbragimov hits him just right... But the most likely scenerio will be just like the previous posters say..this fight will turn out similar to Klitchko-Brock.
My sentiments exactly....I'm going with the gut..even though my headbone says Wlad will mechanically crush him....
Because people always hedge their bets as fight time gets nearer so afterwards they can say they predicted the upset??
i can promise you right now that i won't say a word about that after the fight - no matter who the winner.:yep
I always said Sultan has more than 20% chances against Wladimir but those are entirely based on his speedy counterpuncher style ( defensive manoeuvres) and not on his own offense... So that would mean that he has very small chances of winning inside the distance - Povetkin has better chances of doing it inside twelve rounds and those are not better than 20%... What really makes it so bad for Iggy is the level of his opposition and the way he fought Austin ( after 6 rounds), Holyfield and Briggs - I have no gut feeling about an upset whatsoever.
Ibragimov has a great chance to pull the upset but he has to effectively get inside and make Klitchko fight his fight
