    Maskaev is ****in old and inactive.

    Wlad has already defeated Peter.

    Chagaev would be a good fight, but he has been in a limbo.


    In my opinion, only Chageav-Wlad is better than Ibragimov-Wlad. But nobody knows what Chagaev is going to do, so Wlad-Iggy is the best we can get.

    This is going be a boring fight, that wont attract the average fan, which the Heavyweight division needs to do to become more popular IMO.

    One thing I noticed about Sultan in his recent fights is that the guy is not as versetile as people were expecting him to be since he was a successful amateur. The reason boxing fans get excited when a successful amateur turns pro is because they know that the particular boxer has above average boxing skills and more importantly has versitility, thats the key to this game. I knew that Sultan had a win against Savon, I said, hey maybe this guy is one of those special amateurs that can close the distance when fighting a tall opponents, example Tyson.

    Well from what I saw against Austing and Briggs, he didn't. In both fights, during the 24 rounds of fighting the guy couldnt find a consisten effective way to close the distance and do his damage. Now his set to fight Wlad, whose is the best outside fighter in the game with arguably faster feet than Sultan. Thats a recipe for distater as far as im concerned. Wlad by 7th TKO.

    I'd have preferred to see Chag vs Ibrag first, 2 south paws, same height, undefeated.. would be alot more intriguing. Then the winner takes on Wlad.. Oh well Wlad by decapitation in any case.

    I'd say it will take less than 4 right hands.
