I'd rather see the Maskeave rematch than the Toney rematch.This will allow Rock to get his revenge over the hard punching Oleg and probably will more exciting than a Toney rematch.Comment

Sorry but after the last fight I don't think Toney's fights will be exciting anymore. If he couldn't manage his weight for the WBC championship fight, he won't do it for the rematch either.Originally posted by the_truth_1984I'd rather see the Maskeave rematch than the Toney rematch.This will allow Rock to get his revenge over the hard punching Oleg and probably will more exciting than a Toney rematch.Comment

Bozo is clearly biased towards Toney.
That's the only way you can justify him getting a shot at a title and coming in that out of shape and performing that poorly, and then justifying his getting a rematch. Nobody had him winning. Everyone had Rahman winning. A draw is even ridiculous. Toney just did not win 6 rounds. Period. So a rematch, to me, is ******.
Now when I say this, all Bozo can talk about is Maskaev. Which has what to do with how poorly Toney performed and whehter he deserves a rematch- I'm not sure exactly. hehe. Maskaev has fought his way up the WBC rankings to get into an eliminator situation. He won. He holds a brutal KO over Rahman. So comparing Maskaev's title shot to Toney's is completely insane. Toney hasn't beaten anyone of note as a HW except a busted Holyfield 3 years ago.
Just curious...
Was Bozo calling for an immediate rematch of Byrd-Golota? Just like Toney-Rahman, that fight was for a title, the challenger had not earned the shot, and it was scored a draw. Yet, almost everyone had Golota winning. There was never a rematch. Surely you must have cried out for that rematch, right Bozo? Since you are so hot for Toney to get a rematch off of a title shot draw where 99% of everyone who saw the fight thought he *lost*. Right? Right??????

bozo maskaev fought an eliminator fight to get the title shot, what did toney do to get it, how bout Lyhovich whos getting a shot at brewster or beck getting shot at valuev and Kings is trying to push ray austin as the mandatory for byrd-klitschko winner, what did those guys do to deserve title shots????Comment

agreed, i never heard of 3 mandatories in a row...Originally posted by jwell, firstly, i believe upon winning the belt(or in rahman's case a sparring match with barrett) that you are allowed an optional title defence - the toney/rahman fight. next, maskaev is a mandatory and by the rule books does have the right to fight rahman next. that i don't mind very much.
thing i don't like - the wbc issuing a rematch with toney as mandatory after the maskaev/rahman fight. hasim should be entitled to more options in IMO. that's, if he does win that fight.
i think the wbo and ibf belts have the best chances of being unified in the near future. maybe, the wba might also be included in that mix.Comment
