Russian Ibragimov wins WBO heavyweight title · 2007-06-04 11:51
Russian boxer Sultan Ibragimov beat America's Shannon "The Cannon" Briggs to claim the World Boxing Organization’s heavyweight title Saturday in Atlantic City.
According to RIA Novosti, all the three judges scored 119-109, 117-111 and 115-113 in favor of Ibragimov in a 12-round bout.
The bout was initially scheduled for March 10, but was later rescheduled for June 2 as Briggs pulled out citing health reasons, particularly an attack of pneumonia. Ibragimov's managers spread rumors at the time that Briggs was probably healthy and was simply afraid of facing the Russian boxer.
