Maskaev-Peter contracts signed!

By Matt Richardson

********* has been informed that promoters Don King and Dennis Rappaport have signed the contracts for WBC heavyweight champion Oleg Maskaev to defend his title against #1 WBC and mandatory challenger Samuel Peter on October 6th at The Garden. The highly anticipated Maskaev-Peter showdown will be televised on a premium network.

Its only anticipated because of all the BS they put Peter through

im glad this has happened, finally peter gets the shot he deserves, he has worked hard to get where he is and progressed so much since his loss to wladimir, if he beats maskaev which i think he will, i would love to see him get revenge and knock wlad out and i think he can!

Glad to see Maskaev has finally accepted his demise. You can only cheat death for so long, Oleg. The fact that he will have officially "held" and I do mean HELD the title a year by the time he gets KO'd is just sad. Worst division ever.

Peter deserves the shot but he won't be a champ for long. Unless his chicken**** managers back out, he'll be fighting Vitali next. If Vitali is 75% of the fighter he used to be, he'll mop the ring with Peter.

i dont agree with mop the ring, i think sam can put up a good fight against vitali, hes a good fighter and hes getting better, if he can take maskaevs belt, then fight wlad and win, hes accomplished alot

Quit bitching and whining you ungrateful little ****,if you don't like it, stop watching the division already and quit complaining.. it's so hard to go online log in and just complain, real classy, Oleg could've just vacated the title and not take the match, he knows he's going to lose but he's not being a ***** about it, he's taking it like a real man.. If the division was really that bad why post on a meaningless contract?

I'm gonna go on a limb here and say Maskaev beats Peter!

Just a ****** intuition.
I can clearly see Maskaev being able to get a UD. His skills are VERY underrated.

On the other hand, Peter's win over Toney made him very overrated.. I mean, he looked incredible that night, but that's just not enough to solidify him in my book

P.S. - Don't beg me to make any bets as I want to see what shape the fighters are in.... I'm sure I'll have plenty of options to bet

Maskaev-Peter contracts signed!
