Maskaev/Peter FINALLY ON!

Vitali might have something left to give, and that something may be enough to beat anybody out there, but it's likely that he is not what he once was. The 3+ years off, the injuries, and the failed comeback attempts are indications that his body can't perform at the level it once could.

 

finally. Damn man. Seems like forever.

 

Peter by KO.

 

hang on,

im confused. what's all this talk about vitali fighting winner of peter/maskaev?

i thought today he announced that he was going back into politics. wants to run for mayor of kiev?

there is no way he can run for mayor AND train for possibly his final fight. (im guessing even if he was going to fight the winner, it would only be to hold the belt the same time as his brother for historical reasons and nothing more).

 

Who knows?

 

Vitali said he'll dedicate to politics, he'll be in the Kiev elections.

 

PETER SHAKY CHIN......SO IS MASQUEVS....BUT MY MONEY IS ON MAQUEV

 

Sam will actually fight the guy he prepares for months for... this time. He will see Maskaev's punches much better than the giant McCline's and will block many of them. He will be able to land his jab on Oleg with ease. I see a motivated Samuel Peter winning this fight by TKO, later rounds. :good

 

for me the fight will be decided on at the weigh in. peter will have to be in shape better than he was for wladimir. that fight he was at 243 from memory. so this fight he'd have to hit that mark, and the lower he goes the better. anything under 240 will mean he can walk oleg down all night until he lands those combos.

if peter is out of shape, oleg will use the ring constantly and play it safe by using jabs and straight rights.

 

Exactly. Peter may have shown some chinks in his armour in the McCline fight, but unlike Maskaev, he got up and won the fight. Peter's chin may not be granite, but it's not GLASS like Oleg's either!

Peter KO 2

 

After this most recent weekend, I'm more confident than ever in saying Maskaev by KO.

 

I wonder if Maskaev learned anything from watching Peter vs. McCline? :huh

 

why are some people saying that maskaev has more power than mccline? because he ko'd sedreck fields twice? he didn't knock out any top 10 guy. and he has one of the worst chins in the division. if you want to win against peter you gotta be a masterful boxer (no) or have a good chin (no no). so maskaev is going down.

 

I think Peter is going to get beat sooner rather than latter but not by Maskaev.
