Who was the superior fighter? (I speak in past tense because both are quite obviously done in terms of being any threat to the division now) Both big punchers, both worked there way up to a shot at the lineal champ:
Peter beat james toney twice, rahman failed twice.
Peter stopped oleg maskaev, rahman failed twice.
peter kayoed tauyrus sykes in round 2, rahman won a UD over him.
Peter (although outboxed) acquitted himself well in fight #1 (minus the rabbit punches lol) rahman (although older) was embarrassed by wlad.
peter beat james toney (twice), jeremy williams, oleg maskaev, Yanqui Díaz and jameel mcline (who holds dominating wins over shannon briggs and michael grant) however peter was getting battered early on in that fight! He also lost to eddie chambers.
Rahman holds that great upset victory over lewis, lost to ruiz, lost to holyfield, beat corrie sanders (after being floored and out on his feet twice ) won a UD over monte barrett, lost to tua and drew with tua!!
Peter was recently brutalised by helenius after two devastating ko's at the Hands of the klitschkos, rahman is scheduled to fight povetkin after winning 5 straight fights.
