What Counts Saturday night at the Thomas and Mack in Las Vegas and on HBO PPV, Hasim “The Rock” Rahman defends his WBC heavyweight crown against one-time conqueror Oleg Maskaev. When the men first men in 1999, Maskaev was trailing on all the cards when he caught The Rock in the 8th with a career-salvaging wallop that knocked the future champion unconscious and out of the ring. A lot has happened since then, most of it to Hasim Rahman. Whether he has revenge in mind or is simply running out of challengers we’ll know for sure come Sunday morning. But in your opinion, does Rahman have what it takes avenge his defeat at the hands of Maskaev, or does history, as is its habit, repeat itself? |

Witter A Slapper, A Flapper (A Career In The Crapper?)
"Another upset! I keep making the right bet. I never thought for a moment that Witter was a good boxer or a hitter. He is just another slapper and a big-mouth flapper. In the hurt business, no word can hit you like a fist. He got knocked on his butt, and his words didn't cushion his fall. Hopefully, he will now shut up. More of today's boxers should learn the art of hurting, and cut out all this garbage of hyping. All the sightings of "Big Foot" and "UFOs" have been delusions, but these sightings of upsets in 2008 boxing are hard realities." ---TSS reader Radam is lovin' the upsets
