    Why Does Sultan Ibragimov want to Fight for the WBO Interim Title?

    This guy has lost it, He wants the fight with JAVIER MORA to be for the WBO Interim title, look at the opposotion its JAVIER MORA for gods sake and WBO already refused him for this.

    I dont want to hear how there was no one else to fight, Dominick Guinn wanted to fight him, Tony Thompson wanted to fight him!

    Since Briggs pulled out of this fight, there have been numerous reports on possible replacements for Ibragimov such as Brock, Lou Saverese, Dom Guinn, etc., etc, only for Team Ibragimov to settle with relative unknown Javier Mora.

    Point, these reports have been rather suspect and I kind of find it hard to believe that Team Ibragimov couldn't find a more noteworthly or credible opponent to fight for the WBO intern title. Or maybe the opponents they contacted priced themselves out?

      there are 100 heavyweights that are better than mora today, this choice is a joke

      also, thompson would easily decision ibragimov, so thats why he was turned down

        I think that Michael Moorer would've been a better and more credible opponent than Javier!(he's still boxing) I mean, how are the promoters planning on selling this fight card? I doubt if they even fill up 2/3 seats of the garden.

            Did you see his fight with Kirk Johnson? How'd he do?

              He was getting beaten easily until he stepped on Johnson's foot, and Johnson tripped and messed up his knee. They called it a TKO that night. I think they might have changed the verdict since then, though.

                Kirk lobbied pretty hard to have it changed to a NC and it was eventually changed. Since then Kirk has yet to return to the ring.

                  i watched the fight, johnson dominated him just cause he was too skillfull for about the first 4 rounds.... but johnson was actually tiring and mora was coming on at the time that johnson had his foot stepped on.... it was nothing impressive on mora part, just a pathetic showing by johnson...

                  also, mora weighed in at a career low 232 pounds to fight johnson, a full 17 pounds lighter than his previous fight....

                  he then turned around and weighed in at 256 pounds only 3 months later against fres oquendo in a fight in which he did absolutely nothing.

                  at 232 pounds he is tolerable, at 256 he is a laughingstock

                    johnson was fading fast, he clearly lost the 6th round and was losing the 7th up till he was stepped on.....

                    scores showed that was the case.... 56-58 57-57 and 55-59

                    has the 7th been completed mora would have been winning on 1 card 67-66 and behind on the others 67-66 68-65
