Maskaev consistantly landed more effectively to the body
neither guy had an signifcant advantage in size, strength, or punching power.
Maskaev had by far the better left hook. It was a left hook which eventually led to Rahman going through the ropes.
Rahman was faster with both his hands and feet.
The key thing in that fight was that Maskaev was for the most part able to nullify Rahman's jab.
I know alot has changed with these fighters since 1999, but if Maskaev can again nullify Rahman's jab he probably stands a fair chance in this fight.
