I wonder, after seeing that he is scheduled to fight in December. Is the Rahman we last saw put on a pitiful performance vs Steelhammer really the Rahman of today or can he bounce back?

Rahman hasn't been a serious contender since Maskaev knocked him out for the second time. He should probably retire.

Yet he continues to fight. I wonder why? What does he expect to achieve now??

I think it's best that he retires soon. He's not gonna win another title.

I hope he's not fighting because of financial problems.

Rahman should retire.

He is way past it.

The only fight worth anything for him would be a third fight with Tua. Even though he's faded, he could still give Tua the same problems he did in the past. Tua is better at this point than Rahman though, no doubt.

Rahman doesn't have a great resume in all fairness. His best work is the fights with Tua, the Sanders win, and the fluke win over Lewis. He was always a very able boxer, and had a great jab when he got it going [as well as being physically very strong with a big right hand], but he was never THAT good.

Or a third fight with Maskaev.

Maskaev is nowhere near as good now as he was the last time they fought and Rahman was leading on points both times before he got ktfod.

Maskaev and Rahman should fight for a 3rd time, loser leaves the sport for good. Rahman has a good shot, Maskaev looked like **** lately.

Maskaev should retire too. He ain't gonna get another belt ever again.
