  • Borges on Boxing: The European Rule

    The Europeans aren't coming. The Europeans have arrived. All four of them.

    Oleg Maskaev put the punctuation point to that fact on the chin of World Boxing Council heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman in the final round of what may very likely have been Rahman's final reign as heavyweight champion Saturday night at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. In what was a hard fought and closely contested match, Maskaev mustered the firepower to drop Rahman with the last of what had been an unexpectedly high number of left hooks land by the challenger to the head of the tiring
    champion throughout the evening. Obsessed with watching the right hand that had knocked him unconscious in 1999, Rahman forgot Maskaev had other tools until he got hit with one of them one time too many and stumbled backwards before slumping to the floor after a Maskaev right followed a crushing left hook.
