I think it will turn out to be a great fight, Im glad their making these type of fights happen, this is what we need more of, not everything should be about politics and money...

Yeah it's an improvment on Valuev Beck anyway. The heavyweight division needs more of these fights.

I've not seen Timur fight, but I agree with you guys that this is the sort of matchup between two top 25 heavyweights that should be happening every few months.

Lets hope that the winner gets a shot at Klitschko, liakhovic or Valuev

The June 24 doubleheader will be televised on HBO�s �Boxing After Dark� series, and will feature two 12 round bouts: a WBA Welterweight Eliminator between Joel Julio and Carlos Quintana, and a 12 round heavyweight main event between Calvin Brock and Timur Ibragimov. Brock and Ibragimov recently offered their thoughts on the bout and on training camp: [details]

Ive never seen timur fight so I'd imagine he has a totally different style than his cousin sultan who is anything but a safety first boxer. Im going to watch this fight but would be a lot more into it if it was sultan fighting brock who has a very exciting style. looks like a bigger stronger version of jirov

Isn't the winner going to become mandatory for one of the belts?
