    The winner of Peter/Toney is fighting the winner of Oleg/Rahman, I believe, it will be Peter in the end with a strap.
    This will clear the way to a rematch.

      Had Austin simply thrown more punches, he would have esily beaten Ibrag. by UD...Ibrag was stuck on the outside were he was useless...Aust struck him everytime he walked left and tried to step inside...Austin should hve won but the Draw was the right call for the most part...they should do it again...

        ....But will either one of those guys be a mandatory for Rahman? If not then I could see Wlad/Rahman going down first. Where is Bozo to clear up this whole discussion and tell us whats going to actually happen?

          The winner of Toney/Peter is the mandatory of the winner of Oleg/Rahman fight.

            ....Well then there you have it. I stand erected, er uh corrected that is. That is kind of odd though because if Oleg wins why would they make him fight a mandatory as his first fight? He should be allowed to have the option of picking his first opponent to defend against IMO.

              nice little fight, but these guys are not very good. Wlad will ko both guys with ease. Austin looks amatuerish and half alseep in there. Sultan works hard , but seems easy to hit and is nothing special.

              If this is a fight that got everyone excited about heavyweights..that is pretty sad.

                Morning wood, huh?
                Anyway, I think unless Maskaev actually ko's Rahman, he aint getting jack ****, does not matter how hard he tries or good he looks. But, if he somehow wins, Then most Wlad and OLeg are most likely to collide, if Wlad gets by Briggs.

                  Austin is clumsy, hesitant and weak chinned. Everytime Ibragimov moved in with a left and connected, Austin would get wobbled. A tall fluid fighter like Briggs, Lyachovich or Wlad would eat Austin for dinner. I see Austin getting taken out by any of the aforementioned within three rounds.

                    Sultan took too many rounds off in the middle;

                    extra 12 pounds did matter a lot in this fight.

                    I am disappointed in Sultan not getting in a good shape.

                      ...Yeah, and what was with not ging for the kill on thaose occasions when he had Austin hurt. He could have taken him out in the 12th and just sat back right after Austin Wobbled big time. I mean WTF??
