Went all in on Peterson (before launching a spree of new events) and wondering if it was a mistake.

Kendall might land something big... you never know with him.
And don't forget it is a 5 star matchup, BR never lies!

Either way, all-in for me in this instance was only 2k so it wasn't like it was a massive fortune to lose. If I have to start over from scratch, then so be it.

It won't come anywhere near the despair of my all-in 10k gaffe on the Over in Malignaggi vs. Senchenko!

10 on the nice draw odds, rest 365 all in on King Pete, ez money.

Peterson way too good to get caught with something big. And Holt is just not at a high enough level to have that chance.

Reports are that Holt is completely healthy (he wasn't for Garcia), focused and having a great camp.

Two words for those assuming Peterson will still be at the same level: Alistair Overeem.

IntentionalButt · 02-20-2013, 10:23 AM

Over/under added.

Robney · 02-20-2013, 11:23 AM

don't like the over odds... went for the Kendall upset instead.

War Kendall!

War Holt!

War Draw!

Nonito Smoak · 02-20-2013, 05:33 PM

Wooo, this one's tough.

300 on Holt, 30 on draw, 150 on over... I would have little confidence in whatever I chose to pick.

---

Just wanted to chime in with this, which I was just reminded of in another article and wanted to pass on:

Peterson went down twice in round 1 against Khan and twice in round 3 against Ortiz. Just sayin...

in on peterson

I'm hoping to be wrong about this hunch, but Lamont does get knocked down a lot when he steps up and usually early. (1st against Khan, 3rd against Ortiz, 3rd against Bradley) and he's often elected to go full retard and fought tooth and nail with punchers, making things more difficult for himself (Cayo, Ortiz). His most dominant performances come against cuties with feather-fists (Blain, Castaneda, Brown)

...and Holt is an early knockout specialist, at his most dangerous in the first 9 minutes of action.

That 2/1 doesn't look so unappealing... (now that I've gone all in on the guy I'm starting to think might get blitzed

)

Peterson should win. Holt's only real chance is an early KO and i don't see him doing that. And once that's out the window, he'll probably get discouraged and get outworked. Peterson has a warrior's heart while Holt's heart is questionable.

No boxer is too good to get caught with something big. Even prime Ali had to cheat once against a bum (his own words) to prevent getting KO'd.
Peterson with all PEDs in the world in his system isn't even close to Ali's level
