Oleg Maskaev should stay retired, I fear for his health. He's age 43 and has been KOed too many times.Quote:

Yeah, both are really putting their health in jeopardy by continuing, especially MaskaevQuote:

In all honesty they shouldn't even be cleared to fight ... but we just saw Hasim Rahman get in the ring a few weeks ago when he clearly shouldn't have been permitted to fight ...
Comments from David Price:
Price: My Career Will Not Be Defined By Fury's Path - Boxing News
Frannie Smith says Price is ready for Alexander Povetkin, but not for Wladimir Klitschko:
Price's Trainer Fancies Povetkin, But Not W. Klitschko - Boxing News
Jonathan Banks says he's heard Vitali Klitschko may fight Alexander Povetkin next if he doesn't retire:
Тренер Кличко: Я слышал, что с Поветкиным будет драться Виталий
Mick Hennessey says he's willing to make a fight between Tyson Fury and one of the Klitschkos in the spring of 2013:
Промоутер Фьюри: Бой Тайсона с Кличко может состояться уже весной
Sam Peter really under achieved IMO, I think he had the tools to be a very good fighter but weight gain, manager problems, not having his heart invested in boxing at times really hurt him. There were good fights out there for him at one time. I don't think he could ever beat either Klitschko brother but he gave it a good go all 3 times he tried.
Oleg Maskaev was one of those guys that just ran hot & cold like Andrew Golota. He was never consistent enough.
The article is misleading in that it implies that Fury-Johnson will be a WBC final eliminator and the winner will be Vitali's mandatory.Quote:

Stiverne-Austin was a WBC semi-final eliminator, now Stiverne is in a final eliminator.
Solis-Austin was a WBC final eliminator.
I like Stiverne, he can't box for shit but he packs a punch...I hope he and Arreola get down to business from the first round on!Quote:

Funny thing is I'd prefer to see Fury-Johnson (if it is Fury) versus the winner of Arreola-Stiverne.Quote:

I agree, that would be a good, competitive matchup.Quote:

That's a good fight. Tor Hamer has legitimately been in deeper than what's his name that Lyle always reps.Quote:
