Sultan Ibragimov: "I feel fantastic. The weight is fantastic, perfect!"



I suspect Andy Lee was a major sparring partner for him as well as Johnathan Banks
That's true, I didnt even think of that. Both of the aforementioned Kronk stable mates probably made Wlad feel like he was fighting under water!

He must expect to have to chase Sultan down, which is exactly what he will have to do if Sultan fights the only fight that gives him a chance to pull the upset.
