    If Oleg is to win it will have to be by KO. Im pretty confident one way o another this fight will end in a KO. They both have enough power to KO each other.

    Heres why, Oleg has a weak chin and is older, it wont take much to catch him. and Oleg cant outbox Rahman, unless he fights the way he did against that Samil Sam.

      As for their first bout, Rahman was ahead, but only by a point or two. Maskaev was doing very well in the fight, and it was an exciting fight the whole way through. It's not like Rahman was cruising and just got caught with one big punch out of the blue. People say that, and others repeat it, and I wonder if they've watched that fight. It was very good fight, very back and forth, and close. And Maskaev had him hurt for about a full minute in that last round, and was able to cut off the ring, not allow himself to be held, and polished him off with a the punch at the end that everybody remembers.

      Rahman will win, and probably easier than some expect. All he has to do is put some pressure on Maskaev and move him backwards with the jab. Fights over. Maskaev has to be moving forward to be effective, and he's not strong enough to do that with Rock anymore. The good news is it will probably be exciting while it lasts.

      Rock by TKO 3.
      Its a toss up for me, but I slightly favor Rahman, he looks focused and in great shape. I think this fight will be a war surprising a lot of people, I dont think it will go more then 8-9 rounds...

        Oleg hasnt looked better then Rahman by any means, he beat a few bums including samil sam, neither guy has been impresive as of late...

            I think Toney was just slow with the combos & had bad balance with all that weight he put on, but his defense was still impecabale in that fight, & Rahman fought hard for i'd say 10/12 round, and looked real good against someone that's hard to look good against(I had Toney by 1 point, so i think the draw was fair). I think that if Toney would have been 10 pounds less he'd have won, but Rahman came in there to win & IMHO he could give any HW a hard fight.

              I really think anybody picking Maskaev is just a Rahman hater or someone who fails to realize how good he really is. Rahman had him almost knocked out in the 6th round of the last fight, but Maskaev lost his mouthpiece. Maskaev caught him with some good lucky punches that ended up finishing Rahman. The way Rahman fought Toney, I don't see how anybody can pick Maskaev. Rahman ****ing outboxed James Toney. He will beat Maskaev up with his jab for about 6 rounds and knock him out for good.

                dude, not to give you a hard way to go, but no way you had Toney winning that fight. Rahman definitely won 7 rounds and you could argue he won 8. No way Toney won more than 6. Just no way.

                  Guys, I know Rock has looked like crap, and that Maskaev looked good outboxing Sinal Sam. But please don't let that fool you into wasting money betting on Maskaev. Rahman has been known to phone in performances before, but this is a huge fight, with a lot at stake, and Rock knows all he has to do is put pressure on Maskaev with the jab and the fight's over with. Rock's opposition has been pretty good, even though his performances have been lackluster, whereas Maskaev hasn't really fought anyone at the top level in many years. I think Rock will be able to pull out one more Meehan-type of performance before Wlad puts him to sleep in the unification and essentially ends his career.

                      I don't like neither of them, whoever gets knockedout i'll be satisfied, Rahman is prolly looking for revenge because the knockout punch delivered by Oleg in the 1st matchup was ***ing devastating...
