Okhello's 18 wins have 16 KO's so he's not a runner and will throw to try and get a guy out of there.
Maskaev laid a pretty good beating on the guy,Banged him up good!
The other guys vs Okhello??
Klitschko- Too big strong and fast.too technical and accurate. Against Brock once he started to actually throw the right hand the fight was over VERY quickly. Same result here. round would almost be of Klitschkos choosing.
Valuev (YES HE'S A CHAMP!!) Okhello would have a chance to ko him
but Okhello was gassed from the 10th round on and held Maskaev a lot. He'd be WAY more tired from Valuevs 325 lbs and holding would work against him vs the big leaning tower of St Petersburg.
He'd be super tired and Valuev would club him to the mat.
Shannon (the puffer) Briggs- My opinion of this guy is TOTALLY polluted by his last fight. Based on his 3 punch/round output in that fight I would pick ANY fighter to BEAT him. Including Okhello.
Hell,including Oscar,PBF,Pak,my 81 year old mother...anyone..
he sucked!
I though Okhello gave a good showing of himself and confirmed his current place as a legitimate "opponent" he's 34 years old with 18 wins & 6 losses but this outing might get him another "shot" in the near future.
Yeah Okhello was a game guy, a nice guy and a tuff guy. I give him that. He's no bum. He's just a relatively unknown, and I don't think he should have gone the distance with Maskeav. And you really need to stop overrating Wladimir, and underrating Shannon, there's not a very big differnce between the two. If they fought, it would be pretty much whoever landed a big one first to the other's glass jaw.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
