    Golota has never faced another man out of physical shape. He's a gym rat and some HW fighters ought take pointers from his training camp. His pre fight warm ups could use some work though.

    First of all, the first fight could have gone either way. It was not an "outrageous" decision at all. Lewis/Holyfield I and Whitaker/Chavez were "outrageous" decisions.

    Second, u say Peter struggled with Toney over 24 rounds. You're implying that the rematch was close. Maybe my eyes were deceiving me that night but I thought I saw Peter knock Toney down and win about 10 rounds.

    I've heard the term gym rat but not gym worm but since it's being used to descrive Golota I'm not going to disagree. A worm just sits there and wiggles around which is kind of what Golota does when he's being pressured.

    I used to train in the same gym with Golota for a couple of years ih Jersey City and he looked great all the time in the gym,it was until he got in front of a crowd and got rocked that he would go looney....We used to think he had anxiety about crowds and that plus getting rocked always sent him over the edge.but in all honesty if the Gym version of golota shows up hes a really good fighter.

    These rumours have been floating around for years, dating back to when Golota used to own Tua so badly in sparring that Duva stopped having them spar one another out of fear Golota would destroy Tua's confidence.

    Ashame he can never put it all together in the spotlight. Perhaps this time, he finally will.

    The latest apparently has McCline as the most likely to fight Peter.
