    Anything is possible in today's HW division. HE's not that old either so if matched carefully, sure he can win another paper title.

    He's sorry as hell though and needs to find another line of work.

    That 10th round was scary for Wlad.
    Peter was great that nite @243 lbs.not 265.:patsch
    I likes Sam's chances @240, granite chin. and new trainers.
    He'd KO Haye..

    I will be surprised if he comes in below 270 in any future fight. He obviously blows up to well over 300lbs in-between fights.

    And that is the problem. It is not that he, or fighters like him, don't train hard. It is that they do not keep their bodies in check all year around.

    He could if he were to train and fight more like he used to, but he must not try to be a boxer/ballet dancer. Peter will never beat either Klitschko, nor Valouev, so he has to hope for Don King to get control again, complete control that is. King owns 50% of Valouev.

    Yes, he younger than 80% of the top 20 heavyweights in the division and does have some of the weapons needed to regain a belt. You must remember, the division is **** poor and lacks exciting fighters. If Peter can get back to what he used to be before 06 he can get the publics attention again.

    If Shannon Briggs, could do it just a couple years ago. As well as Holyfield coming as close as possible of regaining another belt at the age of 46, Peter can certainly do it.

    i am going to have to say no...the reason why is because Wladimir and Vitali will have all the titles and he is not going to beat either one.

    ^^ Not all. He needs to get in shape, possibly switch trainers. Besides the Klitschko's the division isn't that strong, if he is motivated to get in shape and improve, combine it with his good power-he might have a chance. **** if Ruiz, and Holyfield can get a shot at a title, so can Peter.

    The only reason ruiz and holyfield have had a shot at a title recently is because of promoters and the stupid sanctioning bodies and if either of those two faced and of the Klitschko's it would be lights out for them...peter was in his best shape against Wlad...granted he did put up a good fight but i honestly do not see peter doing that again.
