Mix 1 1/2 oz. of vodka, 3/4 oz. of Kahlua and 3/4 oz. of light cream and you've got yourself a good White Russian - or another heavyweight champion.
White Russians were the drink of choice for actor Jeff Bridges in the cult-classic movie "The Big Lebowski" and he drank them for any occasion. Had Lebowski, a laid-back pacifist, been in Las Vegas on Saturday night he would surely have raised a glass of the good stuff in honor of Oleg Maskaev and the violence he inflicted upon Hasim Rahman.
There's an old Russian proverb that says, "A drop hollows out a stone" and Maskaev dropped enough left hooks and right hands on "The Rock" to bore some holes and stop him with 43 seconds left in the twelfth and final round. In reducing Rahman to rubble, Maskaev became the fourth Russian-born fighter to hold a current version of the heavyweight championship. Maskaev joins Wladimir Klitschko (IBF), Serguei Lyakhovich (WBO) and Nikolay Valuev (WBA) as heavyweight belt-holders. [details]
