    What does Sultan Ibragimov have to do to beat Wladimir Klitschko?

    Sultan is a big underdog for this bout, but what should he do to win it, in your opinion?

    I was imagining a scenario where Sultan gets to the inside and steadily pounds away to the body and head, and breaks Wlad's resolve and wins a decision. I haven't seen much of an uppercut from Wlad, but maybe he does have a good one and he just doesn't get to use it often, as opponents can't get inside his long arms.

    But for Sultan to get on the insidem, he would need to get past Wlad's insanely long arms and his relatively accurate left jab. I'm just not sure he can do that. If he does a Tyson-style bobbing-and-weaving strategy to get inside, that might work, but I'm not sure he can pull it off.

    It's simple. There's only one way he could win, shoot him.
    Ibragimov will get destroyed, plain and simple.


    No need for a thread explaining how Sultan is gonna beat Wlad, no matter how hard he tries, it's just not happening .. Haha, for real. I can't imagine him beating him.

      Honestly close his eyes and swing as hard as he can one time and maybe just maybe he will get him.I honestly don't see him winning in any way only chance is to make it a ugly hugging match

        Me neither, but I hate writing guys off, so I'm trying to imagine a way he can win.

          A well placed shot will knock Wlad out, other then that he's just gonna have to box and not fight, and hope that his chin is sturdy

            People are underestimating Sultan's southpaw stance and his punch. People forget that Sultan was originally called "white Tyson" when he was coming up in the ranks.

            Didn't really fight like Tyson but he pressed.

            And he could punch.

            But lately Jeff Mayweather has slowed down the pace to his game and made him use a lot of lateral movement.

            He frustrates guys and beats guys the exact same way every time out.

            Dont matter if you are Holyfield, or Briggs, or Klitschko.

            He is going to beat you the same way and it will look ugly.

              He could have Mariah Carey come in his entourage, and sing as high as she can in the first round.

              What will that do?

              Shatter the glass in the Klit's chin of course.
