    he's small!, but..... everyone talks about these huge super heavies but chagaev and sultan aren't massive, either are Peter or Maskaev, who is the other geniune giant apart from Wlad in the top 20, Valuev? I'm pretty sure we all want to see that fight. But only to see what a 7' man with a breeze block for a head getting knocked out looks like. Chagaev is a genuine threat I think, I really have only seen Sultans fight against Briggs, and the guy I saw almost certainly gets knocked out sure as eggs is eggs. But i'm not going to write him off on the basis of that. Like someone else said if you can punch you have a chance against Wlad. Though in reality you also need a hell of a chin I think, now Wlad is more confident.

      Don't get me wrong, Ibragimov is a good fighter. But he is tailor-made for Klitschko. Yeah, anything could happen but it is very unlikely.

      I think the best thing for Ibragimov to hope for is that this fight goes the distance.

        I can't see Sultan beating Wlad. He's shorter, he has shorter reach, he has less power, the only advantage over Wlad he has is speed and Wlad should be able to nullify that with his jab. Once Wlad finds his range with that jab and unleash his right hands it will be over. TKO 6

          he came in out of shape at 231 against austin. every other fight before and after he's been in the 220 range. he was clearly looking past austin and didnt train a lick for that fight. it almost cost him

              It is a possible outcome, but very unlikely.

              I like that Wlad is fighting a very diverse profile of fighters, stylewise.

                Sultan is crafty, he's a sly dog. If he wins, it's gonna win through attrition and quiet confidence, and he'll likely do it by decision. I don't know for sure though, he may just get battered around.

                Still, I think he'll exceed most people's expectations.

                  Why? Cause he's a smart guy and doesn't let his pride get in the way. He will do whatever it takes.

                  Believe it, Sultan will impress a lot of people when it happens.
                  You must be really drunk, cause Sultan has no chance. Wlad will beat him badly.

                    Is it really impossible to beat Wlad without knocking him out? Sultan is pretty slick for a heavyweight. I could see him winning on points possibly. I will admit I don't know enough about Klit or Ibrag to make a definite pick right now. Probably by the fight date, I will.
