Rahman seeks normal split!

[whdempsey]

He also knocked Rahman out of the ring. On a side note, I just realized that Toney and Botha have something in common. They were both champs for less than a week.

...Except for Toney's runs as champion at three other weight divisions. Those obviously count as nothing.

A lucky punch.

Which was over YEARS ago.

A lucky punch? Hell, that's the only reason Rahman is the WBC champ. A lucky punch almost 5 yrs ago. Rahman don't want to risk a rematch with Maskaev because he knows the man has major power and might ride off with Rahman's gravy train.

Exactly why I say that Maskaev is just as worthy to be in the tourney as Rahman. They should fight next like the wbc promised, otherwise Maskaev should sue their asses into bankruptcy!

=========That was SIX years ago. All of those LAUGHABLE KO losses came AFTER that.====================

** Lessee, Maskaev is 14-3 since KOing Rahman, 9-0 over the past 3 yrs and won the WBC title eliminator......Rahman is 10-3-1 since then, 6-1-1 over the past 3 yrs, won the WBC title eliminator and was suddenly given the belt.

Looks to me like Maskaev is being frozen out and would be a truer World Champ than Rahman or Toney since he's been willing to travel and fight all over the US besides his matches in Germany, Ukraine, and Russia. Eventually he'll get his shot and it's gonna be funny if he KO's one of your fatboys you struggle to prop up like they actually have more value than Maskaev does. In

I'm 95% sure that the WBC will make him jump through another poodle hoop now. Since JC Gomez fought in a simluar eliminator, they will probably make a Gomez/Maskaev fight.
