    Peterson fades into obscurity.

    Berto gets a title shot.

    Andrea Pedrto is a disgrace to our sport.

    kinda ****ed. i dislike berto but he's gonna kill guerrerro and then likely get a payday vs mayweather....not right. im no ped expert, does anyone know if bertos was questionable and if petersons was pretty much a sure thing? thats the only scenario i can see that being somewhat ok

    Sam Watson said if he beats Guerrero he gets a shot at "King Kong".

    Meaning Floyd Mayweather.

    Peterson was allowed to keep his title so neither guy received the punishment they deserve.

    Pedrto should've been subject to a random blood and urine testing year around for the rest of his career, paid for by his management/promotor company, and should've been stripped of his ranking, forcing him to fight his way back to a title.

    And yet here we are, not even a year later, and he's fighting for a title.

    Our sport is the most corrupt in the world, unfortunately.

    I'm not excusing Lamont, he deserves to be punished.

    He is not on an HBO card fighting for millions though, is he?

    they both have been inactive for about 2 years and missed out on huge paydays against Khan and Ortiz. which means no paychecks. you don't consider that being punishment?

    mainly because Bradley turned down a rematch so Peterson doesn't have a dance partner at the moment..

    Apparently Berto just had his food contaminated.

    You know, like how Alistair Overeem had 10x the normal testosterone level because he had eaten some horse steak.

    Food is all it is, Berto is obviously a clean athlete.... :patsch
