    imagine yourself having comitted a violent crime and the sadistic Judge descides not to have mercifully executed……...but instead watch this fight!

    perhaps the 2 most awkward lightheavyweight Champs ever. but effective they were.

    in alot of ways, These two are Mirror Images: Gold medalist for the eastern block, world Amateur Champions....two proponents of the old School eastern block Amateur style made into successfull pros without altering their style.

    to me, the pick is rather easy: Maske all the way! to me, he is like an improved Version of mate parlov….a bit rougher, a bit sharper.

    so who wins?? if you go by the laws of mathematics (two minusus make a plus) this would be the greatest fighter EVER!!!

    A scintillating match for the first few rounds. Maske's class, tho, is a couple steps higher and he begins to pull away to a dominant victory. Jab, jab, pecking right. Workrate. Genius.
