    Since when do you have to KO every opponent to win??

      I think Maskeav is way too slow for Hopkins. This is an intriguing matchup though.

        i have more respect for lennox lewis every day when i read crap like this.

        which of the current champs would ever, on their worst day, "cave in" to all the demands bernard hopkins is going to issue before a fight like that would ever take place? certainly not maskaev.

        oleg's fighting a "homecoming" bout of sorts in russia at the end of the year against okhello (a big hulking guy who floored and had sinan samil sam about out at the end of their fight last year). and then oleg has to fight sam peter.

        now hopkins says he wants to fight oleg ... but he's already making price demands? sit down bernard. boxing can get along fine without you.

          bhops would destroy oleg maskiave ... absaultly
          hes 6'1 6'2 ish ...hes damn near as big as maskiave is ! all these nutty fools talking about how much bigger oleg is are just insane ... we're talking a guy whos been in obsurity for years only to come out and get a win of crapman ..big woop so he beat haseem ...

          bhops is a highly trained high focused and a highly stable human being probably the most stable since muhamid ali ... no drugs no booze no night life just pure boxing training .. its why hes 40+ years old and still wanting to move up ..clearly he has the money and the means to not ask for a risk like this so who knows what the man is thinking and who knows what the man will do at heavyweight

          why dont we all wait and see before we judge? for all we know the extra muscle could produce a stunning knock out...you seen how he trounced tarver ...tarver may not be a heavyweight but he for damn sure has more class and style than oleg maskiave to make a difference in the pick um status

            I dont know if he would destroy Maskeav, but I think that he can beat Maskaev.
