IBRAGIMOV IS ONE STEP AWAY FROM GLORY ! ! !

[Rahman]

After his stunning seventh round stoppage of Lance ‘Mount’ Whitaker last December, the boxing world stood up and took notice of unbeaten Heavyweight contender and 2000 Olympic Silver Medalist Sultan Ibragimov, as one of the division’s brightest stars.

The International Boxing Federation (IBF) obviously agrees, as the world sanctioning body has ordered an elimination bout between Sultan Ibragimov (19-0, 16 KOs) and always tough Ray ‘The Rainman’ Austin (24-3-3, 16 KOs) to
determine the number one challenger to newly crowned champion Wladimir Klitschko.


Wow it will be a good elimination fight i think Sultan VS Austin . . . I guess that Sultan will make a TKO or easy UD VS Austin and get next Wladimir at late 2006 . . .



Come on Sultan show ur power ! ! !

...well Buhbye Sultan, nice knowing you! You might be a power punching lefty but you're 6'2 and TINY....I'd be VERY surprised if Wlad lost to him.



Not to hate on Sultan or Timor but they haven't been pushed to where champions would push them...Lance Whittaker is no where near Wladimir Klitschko.....Lance isn't even in Rahman's league. It's gonna be a tough tough step up for Sultan and his chin will be checked and checked HARD if he steps in with Wlad...Wlad knows how to handle danger now and I expect him to use that and his jab to pick Sultan apart.

Ray Austin is an acid test but he's very very weak but a good technical boxer
