Who's the best of the three right now? I'm not sure! All three guys are about the same size. Ibragimov has the best hand and foot speed, and perhaps has the most versatile game plan, as he can box, slug, or swarm his way to victory. Chagaev might be the best puncher of the bunch, and has a very good chin. Chagaev likely beat the best fighters of the three. Povetkin has the most potential, but also seems to have the least power. However he is still on the way up. I do like Povetkin’s stamina and intangibles though. I think he’s an old school real fighter.
In experience and legassy: 1. Chagaev 2. Ibragimov 3. Povetkin Toe-to-toe: 1. Povetkin 2. Chagaev/Ibragimov
Chagaev is the best. Ibragimov lost to Savon, but Chagaev beat Savon 2 times. Also, in amateur boxing, Chagaev beat Ibragimov once.
Sultan Ibragimov is the weakest of the three heavies.Thats for sure! In terms of defeated opposition Chagaev certainly deserves the notch to be ranked ahead of Povetkin,but in terms of skills and potential I for my part would certainly rank Povetkin above the other two fighters.
