Rahman has a message for Klitschko

By DHB (Aug 3, 2006)

Hasim Rahman returns to action on Saturday, August 12 where he will be defending his World Boxing Council heavyweight crown in a rematch against Oleg Maskaev.

In an interview with IOL, Rahman told the paper he was fighting for his country, USA. Rahman tells IOL: "I get to defend my title, avenge a loss and hold it down for my country. I'm definitely going to make a big statement in this fight."

Rahman had a message for another Heavyweight. Rahman seems to be looking ahead of Oleg, and towards Wladimir

Klitschko, telling the paper: "Klitschko is on my mind. He's the guy everybody says is the only other guy. That's the guy I want to fight."

Rahman added: "That's what the division needs for clarity. I'm not interested in the other two belts. Nobody can defend all four anyway with all the mandatories."
