IMHO Peter may be at the pinnacle of his career. ;)
None - the same pure "Jeff Lacymania over again" :-\Quote:

These are blind Peter fans, who cannot see how laughably crude this guy is.
I'm going with Oleg by decision. He is a much smarter boxer than people give him credit for. If Peter doesn't KO him in the first 2 rounds it's gonna The Big 'O' all night.

Maskaev Vitali will be a war between two well schooled tough guys. OLEG knows Vitali so well style wise he is not scared of him. I think that he will last atleast as long as Corrie Sanders or better.
The biggest question is wether or not Maskayev's 38 year old legs,can keep pace with Peter's 26 year old ones
Do you think Peter has good pace in his legs?Quote:

Depends on what his trainers want him to doQuote:

So you mean that you want Peter to back up and have Oleg following him? But what about the distance; Oleg has better reach is that not a problem, and doesnt backing take away from the power?Quote:

His best punches are those booming hooks he throws,and it keeps Oleg constantly having to follow him
I voted Peter by late TKO, with Samuels new found offense I think hes improved vastly and I think he would stop the older, slower Maskaev.
Oleg may die in the ring.
i like both guys but peter should win, but if vitaly is next...peter isn't keeping that title for long vitaly will take it from him right away.
