    Ibragimov has some good wins

    - dominant shutout over Shannon Briggs

    - dominant win over Evander Holyfield

    - dominant 7th round KO over Lance Whitaker

    - destroyed Javier Mora in 46 seconds

    Agreed.People knock him for the Wlad fight and rightfully so but he as really a top 5 HW and a decent fighter.

      He is a pretty good overall fighter who can produce good results ggranted he is fighting against a guy who can make him look good. Wlad is not the sorta fighter who can make anyone look good against him in his present state.

        hes a decent fighter but it doesnt help hes been on a year and a half layoff either, i dont think he would beat povetkin or chambers...and he has no chance of beating the klitschko's (we already saw him get shut out against wladimir)

            Me too. It would be a better fight than most people would think.

              Him, Chagev, Maskaev and Valuev (see the similarity?) damn near ruined the HW division this decade. Thank goodness Wlad came along and dispatched of him. He sure has a knack for taking away guys' undefeated records, eh? :box2:

              And I enjoyed Wlad-Ibragimov, dammit!!! :laff2:
