There 1st fight was a better guage. And also factor in that tua destroyed maskaev and ruiz who both beat the rock.
Sam Peter was a colossal disappointment. He clearly lost to James Toney in the first bout, then came back as a much smarter fighter in the rematch and legit won that one.
And yes he and Maskaev had a disgraceful bout that resembled two drunks fighting outside a bar, and Peter ended up getting the better of it.
Peter's outing against Jameel McCline was also less than stellar.
