    Yeah, I think I might have missed the boat on this one. I stopped betting on boxing after picking Toney to win a couple of times. I would certainly put some money on Maskaev if I were a betting man.

      I found Okines defence particularly impressive.
      Thanks for the upload, I found that very amusing


      I see Briggs had a 46 (36)-4-1 record to Okine's 14 (8)-0 at the time. Hardly a fair match.

          What a ********** avatar that is, lmao!

          Nobody can have a Haye avatar like that without it seeming real gay, I've seen this on other forums as well

          And I saw that dig at the dollar, I will not forgive you for it.

            Remember when Peter stopped looking as hot when he stepped up from fourth tier competition, so they put him back in with an old Audley Harrison victim (Julius Long) to reinvigorate his stock?

            Obviously I realise that Peter's technical ability is unrivalled in the division's history - not even Matt Skelton is as gifted - but I don't even believe his punching power is all that. He's okay sparking a few cans, but what elite boxers has he stopped?

            I wouldn't be surrpised if he DOES bet Oleg, but Oleg's got a good record of KOing Negrons.... like I say, I've got 15 clams on him.
            Negrons?

            and i bet ya thong went too far up ya ass when B-Hop told Calz he would never lose to a white boy!!

            I wouldn't be surrpised if he DOES bet Oleg, but Oleg's got a good record of KOing Negrons....

            now how would you know some **** like that?!?

                  I pick Peter and early, and the only reason I say that is because Maskaev has not been active in a very long time, while Peter though he has not looked in good shape after being floored by McCline, I think that comming off of the deck a couple of times during the fight and still find a way to be able to take back control of the fight and win the fight.
                  That right there will give the younger fresher Samuel Peter the confidence he needs going into this fight he will go into tonights fight knowing that he has two good wins over a well schooled vet such as James Toney and also knowing that if it came down to it he could get up and win the fight.
                  Peter in a quick fight.

                    Maskaev is too fragile to beat Sam. The only scenario I can see with Maskaev winning is him being KO'd with a clubbing shot to the back of the head and Sam being disqualified.

                      Lol, how is he too ''fragile''? He wouldn't have beaten the likes of Rahman if he was that weak. If there's a good ref and Maskaev fights his fight he can grind out a win IMO.
