Chagaev-Ibragimov Unification Set For 10/13

[BrooklynBomber]

Keep things simple-sure they are lefties but they are lefties who are going to both be given the opportunity to fight against a champ their own size, which is a rarity for both men.

If one of them feels they are the stronger fighter (they may both feel that) then I believe we will see some fireworks.

On paper it is a very interesting matchup and an even one at that-why cant two southpaws throw caution to the wind?

Read my previous post, the only thing going for them to start an agressive fight is that both are about the same size, but they are both counter punchers in nature and both know it. So either of them would be too cautios to "fall through" with their attacks and get caught, although Chagaev's chin is clearly better and he, so far seems to be a better fighter.

BTW, did you notice that Chagaev looks a but like younger Baldomir.

yes sure holyfield is a old fighter now. But he was a great fighter, and personaly i think he deserves a last title shot, and maybe he will win. chagaev and ibragimov are two very good fighters, but i'm sure or i hope holyfield has one great fight

yes,,,holy was great and I'd love to see a miracle,,,,thats what it would take. the last 2 guys he faced with any hand speed and or mobility were donald and toney and they both gave him an awful one sided beating. it would be the same or worse against sultan or chageav. only difference is they both punch harder than donald and toney. I cringe at the thought of holy against any top 10 fighter with a pulse

Man, these two guys are bums. Thank goodness they're fighting each other so one bum can allow Klitschko or Peter (Soon to be WBC champ) a chance to have 3 of the 4 belts. Unification here we come!

both "bums" would have a good chance of beating peter,,,,espescially chageav

With one of them holding two belts, I'm sure Klitschko would be licking his chops just thinking about a unification. That is of course if he beats Brewster, who would lose to both IMO.

You are forgetting that Iggy has a very shaky chin at best

One knockdown in his entire professional career doesn't mean Sultan has a "very shaky chin" - he was hit hard with direct punches a couple of times by Briggs and didn't even blink! Briggs may not be a good boxer, but he has considerable power. Sultan fought cautiously with Briggs because Mayweather had instructed him to do so, but he's usually much more aggressive.

[futurebeast67]
