    We'll see how he does this year.
    I dont think so.
    Anyways, you guys seem to overlook the fact that Wlad is a much better fighter than he used to be.

      How will Wlad respond to the consistent pressure Sultan is going to bring to him? Ibragimov can keep it up almost all night when he's in shape too. Sultan would be a big test of Wlad's composure, he is not going to gas like Peter did if he comes in at 220. It'd be like a marathon endurance test of Wlad's stamina and heart.

      We all saw how Wlad was surprised by Sander's straight left. Ibragimov isn't nearly as quick as Sanders, but he's still a southpaw who throws a mean left.

      Anyone who is basing Ibragimov purely off of the Austin fight needs to expand his or her mind by watching his other fights.

He was his best against Wlad, then he went down, got fatter and less prepared, and when toney did a reality check on him in the first fight, he decided to get back in his previous shape, but dude does nothing better then he did against Wlad.
        Anyways, if this fight will happen, I am open to bets.
        LOL!!!

        WHAT?!?!?!?!?!

        Of coarse he does things better. he does virtually EVERYTHING better.

        This would be a MUCH better fight , and a MUCH closer fight the second time around.

        Peter will DEFINETLY knock him out nice and quick

          If Sanders gets on some sort of streak and beats a couple decent opponents, then I think Wlad should face him again. As well as Brewster if hes ever the same. Lewis avenged his losses, Wlad should do the same. As far as who could beat him right now. I dont think anyone would.

            Look, you overlook something very important, Peter gassed against Wlad not as much due to his condition, but cause he was getting peppered all night. And Wlad was much less timid with his right hand against him. So how will Sultan respond after getting hit with a few of the right hands Early in the fight(since he is a southpaw)?

              No, he does not. He was good against guys who were ****, his abilities were virtually nullified agaisnt Wlad.

                We'll see how his chin holds up. That's the x factor here, how good is Ibragimov's chin really? I think it's pretty solid, but we'll know when he faces Briggs for sure. Assuming his chin is strong, with his style he is the 2nd most dangerous fight for Wlad, next to Peter.

                Let him get by Briggs (which I think he'll do with relative ease) first and then we'll talk about Wlad-Ibragimov.

                  Seriously, guys, watch a couple of Peter's early fights. He could throw a decent combo, he could lead off with a jab. Its just he could not use any of it against Wlad.

                    ww

                    Lyakhovich was out of shape and he was still ahead on points heading into the 12th.

                    I believe if Sanders even at his current age comes into a fight against Peter in tip top shape, Sanders would knock Peter out relatively easy. Peter's wide, clubbing, swings would do Peter in very early. Sanders is a lightning quick straight puncher and by the time Peter's clubbing swings reach their target, Sanders would land two straight shots to Peter's chin and Peter would crumble.

                      Bro Sultan will not get past Briggs. I agree with you on many points but I just cannot get on the same page with you when it pertains to Sultan. Sultan will be on the receiving end of a terrible beating when he face's Briggs.
