from bokser.org: The fight would take place in Moscow during the card "Return of Champions", named so mainly on behalf of Oleg Maskaev, who has been out of the ring for over 3 years. " We are negotiating with Dennis Rappaport, Maskaev's manager.We are considering Samuel Peter and Monte Barrett" says promoter Wladimir Hriunov. I wonder if this one's true, I'd see Peter KO'ing Maskaev again, the guy is now 43, and in his prime he couldn't take a punch
Oh man, and watch the Nigerian Nightmare hype machine get back in full swing as a result. Remember the Peter vs. Liston threads? We're soon to relive the glory days.
True, but after his last fight, I don't think Maskaev should be allowed within 20 feet of a boxing ring anymore.
That would help ensure that Wlad's KO rate doesn't dip below 80% (which it's in danger of doing if he runs into another Wach)
