The promoter Maskaeva accused Vitaly Klitschko of double standards

The promoter of the applicant for the WBC -weight title Oleg Maskaev Dannis Rappaport called double standards an attempt by the holder of the championship belt according to this version of Vitaly Klitschko to evade a meeting with the Russian.

Recall that the World Boxing Council ordered Klitschko Sr. to conduct two obligatory defense of the title in a row - against Juan Carlos Gomez in March this year, and then against Oleg Maskaev. The Ukrainian intends to dispute this decision in a sports arbitration court in Lausanne.

Rappiport recalled that in 2008, the WBC in a completely similar way obliged Oleg Maskaev, who then owned the championship title, to first meet with the obligatory contender Samuel Peter, and then with Vitaly Klitschko, who, thanks to his status, had the right to fight for a belt. However, then Vitaly supported this decision of the World Boxing Council.

“This is some kind of absurd theater,” the Rappaporta statement quotes the Allboxing statement. “Klitschko is trying to challenge exactly the same solution as he himself received from WBC. He uses double standards? Some for Klitschko, and others for everyone else? Now he and the Maskayev have changed places. Why did he not complain when this decision was profitable for him? This is some kind of stupidity. What he used to use. "
