what's next for maskaev?

yeah he is 37 and his fighting skills won't go anywhere else but to deteriorate

So I say he'll be aggressive and take on the big fights, unification fights. Earn as much as he can then get out and retire, enjoy a good life out of the ring.

One last big payday then retire, win or lose.

i learned he's already 37 years old, how far could he go as a champ, 1-2 years?

no way.....he has 1 fight left in him....win or lose his next is his last....i wouldn't be surprised if he retires now, but the $$$ might entice him into one big unification fight!..

I give him one or two more solid fights...

According to WBC President Jose Sulaiman, Maskaev will have to defend the title against the winner of the September 2 clash in Los Angeles between James Toney and Samuel Peter.

me, too. if he could ko rahman then he could ko this guy who has glass chin compared w/ rahman. the only problem i see is if maskaev could adapt well enough because klitschko is taller and has a longer reach and will surely use this to his advantage.

fight Klitschko, then if he wins Toney.

or fight klitschko lose go out with a win against a top 30 HW an quit
