Maskaev can beat Vitali

I bet Rappaport has got the WBC by the short and curlies, somehow. There must be something going on behind the scenes for them to make Oleg a mandatory, after he was just thrashed by Peter and deserves squat.

Not to mention that Vitali just fought one mandatory in Gomez.

This is crazy.

 

Maskaev is a joke.

 

Let me explain something to you people.

Sam Peter had more of a chance than Maskaev does.

Maskaev is old, shop worn, and chinny. That is a bad combination of things when you are going to face a fighter like Vitali Klitschko.

 

Same people who are saying Maskaev would beat Vitali will be saying later when Vitali knocks him out that Vitali fights bums.

 

What a stupid post.

 

I've supported Oleg all of his career and would be fully behind him if this fight happens, but going with my head, he will not win. I hope he gets a good pay day and retires healthy.

 

Olego Maskaev will see stars inside of 5 rds against Klitschko...... No need for that match...

MR.BILL

 

Logical post.

Chance . . . of course he has . . . but not much. Don't get carried away by Oleg's first round KO win last March 14 against Boruf. Boruf was there for the taking . . . he was fed to the lion. Boruf is a guy who is rated 314 in the world with a record of 17-3 and lost his two previous fights by TKO's against bums.

Take note of Oleg's previous fight last Sept 6 '08 against Robert Hawkins. Hawkins is 6"0' with a record of 23 - 12 and rated 113 in the world and yet Oleg only managed to get a UD win.

That should be a good indication of what's Oleg's real chance is.

 

Maskaev would have to be consistent with his inside right hands, and I could see him doing it for a round or 2, but anything more than not really. Maskaev would also have to survive Vitali's punches over the course of the fight and I don't see him doing that. Vitali would stop Maskaev faster than he stopped Gomez.

 

Maskaevs egg would be ****ing SHATTERED.

 

Nah, Maskaev is way to slow. I've seen seasons move quicker. Vitali would have a stationary target to pick, prod, poke and eventually dispatch - he would do all of this within about 7 rounds.

If Vitali has to fight him, he should get it out of the way sooner rather than later.
