They faced in the amateurs and Chagaev won by decision in a competetive fight.

How do you see it in the pros?

12 rounds, both in prime.

:lol: I remember when we did the radio show and my friend Frank was all excited about the guest he got, "I got Sultan Ibragimov!", and he couldn't understand my silence :lol: needless to say he decided to not have him on the show that night because if I thought he sucked he knew that interview was going to suck.

That being said this is a very even matchup even though Ruslan Chagaev was certainly the more entertaining between the two as he was a puncher. Much as I hate to say it I think Ibragimov edges the decision over 12.

Man oh man I remember the influx of all those Russians and Ukrainians in the early 2000s :lol: I'd probably say Oleg Maskaev was my favorite of those former Soviet Union heavyweights of that time.

I'd pick Chagaev. I think, he was a bit more elusive and way sharper, which would give him an edge. Although I also see it as a dec win.

Maskaev was a quite fun to watch. He had a decent skillset and not the best chin, but often prefered intense fighting.

Chagaev would take a decision over Ibragimov in a close fight.
