Ruslan Chagaev in a split decision

Chagaev beat Valuev, a guy who outweighed him by like 100 pounds, and he beat one of my favourite fighters at HW (Robbery or not a W is W, talking about Vladimir Virchis) and he beat Felix Savon twice at the age of 19 when Savon was a fully experienced champ and won gold medals..

I don't think this fight will happen any time soon. They are both inclined to stick-and-move boxing and a match between them is likely to be a stinker. God only knows who would win. Should be obvious that both their respective managers would prefer a potentially the big money that can be made against one of the Klitschkos.

Nobody is fighting a klitschko any time soon.

And the only BIG money fight for either of them, IS AGAINST EACHOTHER. The unification aspect will draw fans and money.

Ibragimov beat a decent fighter in BRIGGS, while Chagaev beat a bum in VALUEV. Both were at sizable disadvantages.

Ibragimov would win this one by UD, or he could knock himout. idk

I pick Ruslan by decision and have you noticed, we got two southpaw champions, that never happened before, I think

Beat a decent fighter in Briggs?

Valuev's performance against Chagaev was better than Briggs performance against Ibragimov, im so happy now that Ibragimov kicked his ass because he deserved it, he threw like 20 punches in 12 rounds

Chagaev and Ibragimov are very similar fighters - southpaw counterpunchers with good skills and decent power. I like Sultan and I think he's a very good boxer, but I think Ruslan has an edge in power and speed.

I think Chagaev would probably win by UD (rather than KO because Sultan has a good chin, he's only been down once as a pro and I don't think he's ever been badly hurt).

I don't think we've ever had two ****** heavyweight titleholders at the same time before. With all the prejudice and ill will toward ******s these days, I'm happy to see that.

I think Ali, Tyson and Rahman were the only ****** HW Champions, now there are 2 more.
