    How hard does Peter hit? Does Peter hit harder than Rahman, or Tua?

    What areas is Sam Peter better at then Rahman? I consider Rahman and Peter alot alike in style, height, build, (perhaps power?) .

    Really, Peter hasn't Ko'd anyone. He throws wild looping punches, and looks vunerable to get hit.

    Peter could win by KO because obviously Maskaev doesn't take a good punch, but I don't see the hype. I think it is a much more even fight then many others expect.

    Its hard to jump aboard the hype express of a fighter that Jameel Mccline dropped several times.

    Regardless.

    Not hard enough to KO a Glass Jawed Wlad Klitschko. Peter has not KOed one decent fighter in his career. Everyonbe he has KOed are D class fighters that already had Glass Jaws to begin with.

    Yeah, Jeremy " Half Man/ Half Glass" Williams, Julius " The Falling Oak" Long, the glass chinned Cuban that gets Ko'd in every fight is Peter's best KO's.

    The amount of times he found the target against Wlad, you really would have thought he would have scored a stoppage win.
    In the few times I have ever seen him fight, I never understood the reputation he had as some huge puncher.

    :rofl


    Are you people fuccin serious? I mean really???


    He landed MAYBE 3 semi-power shoys all night against Wlad. Everything else was a glanciong blow... 3 of which landed Wlad on the canvas mind you.

    If and when Sam ever hits Wlad with a shot like the one he hit Jeremy Williams with, Wlad will need a fuccin stretcher to get off the canvas and the NYC Times Square Cleanup Committee to take care of all of the glass in and around the ring.

    I acn't wait until they fight again and Wlad actually is forced to fight and not hold. He's going to finally get chin-checked and will go down like a sack of potatos.

    Peter and rahman with one of there best shots hit about even id say.

    however, peter uses his power more effectively by hitting you with more power shots than rahman.

    rahman has a better jab and id say peter has the betterchin and work rate stamina is about even.

    peter is more likely to stand and trade which i think makes him get hit more thanrahman maybe

    it is not just Wlad though that is not the point. Peter has yet to KO even a top 25 Heavyweight. That is the point.

    It seems Peter has GREAT power, but lacks the ability to land it on top fighters.

    His raw power is great, he just doesn't have the necessary tools to deliver KO blows against top notch opposition. He doesn't have much snap, he doesn't get his body into punches all the time, and his shots have a tendency to be arm punches.

    He doesn't hit as hard as a prime Tua, but I'd say his raw power is around a prime Rahman's.

    Yeah, no Top 25. Would anyone ever consider Jeremy Williams top 40 or 50?

    Yeah, he knocked down Vladimir with punches behind the head. But thoughs were illegal rabbit punches,and Vlad has the reputation of having a terrible chin like Maskaev & he couldn't Ko him.

    Hits about as hard as Tua. Just not as consistently. I think his power fades after four rounds and that's why he starts to target the back of the head.
