I think Vitali and the WBC were in bed together on this along time ago. I think they called the Toney rematch to give Vitali more time to announce his return. Otherwise I think they'd tell Vitali to step back a be patient.
Peter needs to take the money and shut the fuck up. He's lucky to be in the position he's in. He's been given chances instead of being screwed. If I remember correctly he was in an eliminator against Wlad and lost. He than some how found himself in another eliminator against James Toney and by all means lost. But was given a gift win. How the fuck is this being screwed? If anything he's been getting hooked up. Now they trying to hook him up again by given him 2.5 million. And he don't know what to do? What a fucking moran.
He got the decision against Toney...and then beat him convincingly. He knocked Wlad down 3 times. He's payed 200 grand to fight Maskaev. And now he gets possibly only 500 K? He's 26 years old and is only getting better. In a sport plagued by inactivity, you're knocking a guy for wanting to fight?
There shouldn't even of been a rematch if Toney would of got the much deserved win. Because it wasn't that close. And if you look at the fight against Wlad it's quite obvious that only 1 of the knock downs is even legit. Yeah he beat Toney in a rematch that shouldn't of even happened. But come on? In reality he went 1-1 against an aging fighting who was fighting 4 division above his best weight. And struggled in doing so.
Wasn't that close? If it weren't for a point deduction most Toney fans wouldn't have a case for him winning. Wasn't that close? That fight had more swing rounds then any fight in recent memory. And yeah he's aging, but Toney is one of the best boxers in all the game. And Wlad was hurt and turned into those punches versus Peter.

And you don't think there should have been a rematch...well there was...so does that change anything? I think nobody but Wlad could have done the number on Toney that Peter did. And Peter's style plays right into Toney's hands and he still knocked him.
