Maskaev Eyes Vitali Klitschko Rematch

Oleg Maskaev had won two of five fights and been stopped three times when promoter, Dennis Rappaport, met him in 2002 -- not long after the 33-year-old Russian-American had suffered an eighth-round knockout loss to journeyman, Corey Sanders.

Since then, however, Maskaev is 14-1 with 10 knockouts -- a run that began with six straight KOs. The first stoppage was a one-rounder against Erroll Sadikovski in February of 2003.

"Oleg, in the ring, is now doing something that he's never done before -- and that's being relaxed," Rappaport said of Maskaev, who is coming off of a first-round knockout of Rich Boruff in March -- his second straight win since being dethroned as WBC champ a year earlier by Samuel Peter in six rounds.

"A relaxed fighter is the most dangerous fighter in the world. Oleg's boxing beautifully, he's devastating to the body," said Rappaport. "Even at his age, he's learning new things, and, more importantly, he's got the desire to continue learning."

Stars Come Out to Honor Mike Tyson

Elie Seckbach, the Embedded Correspondent, brings his exclusive video reporting to FanHouse. Check back regularly for more videos.

Michael StrahanSports icon Mike Tyson has a reputation that precedes him, but things aren't always as they seem. In "Tyson", a brand new tell-all documentary directed by James Toback and produced by Carmelo Anthony, Iron Mike -- who at his prime was the fear of all heavyweights -- opens up and shares some personal stories that no one ever knew about him. We were at the red-carpet premiere in L.A., and caught up with Michael Strahan (who has a funny story about being mistaken for Riddick Bowe), funnyman Tracy Morgan, Idris Elba (a.k.a. "Stringer Bell" from "The Wire"), Sugar Shane Mosley, and, naturally, Tyson as well.

Riddick Bowe, Age 41, Weight 271, Beats Gene Pukall by Unanimous Decision

The 41-year-old former heavyweight champion of the world Riddick Bowe was back in the ring on Saturday. Here's the best video I could find of his unanimous decision win over Gene Pukall:



Bowe weighed in at 271 pounds, or 36 more than he weighed in 1992 when he beat Evander Holyfield to become the heavyweight champ. It was his first fight since 2005 and just his third since 1996.
