So, for all of you that think he'd going to get KO'd, is the general assumption that Sultan Ibragimov is the better fighter? (personally, I think Ibragimov v Povetkin would have been a good litmus test)...

What credibility do you give him that you don't give to Povetkin? Aren't they both mediocre, undersized guys (undersized relative to Klitschko)?

Klitschko couldn't even put Sultan on the mat, and I don't think he's going to do any different to Povetkin. In this fight, Klitschko will capitalize on the size difference and be uber defensive, and his best punch will be his straight right that he won't throw enough of (just like before).

BUT--

if you think this fight will be different, let's hear some tactics and strategies you think he'll employ... abandon the guard? expose his chin?
