Peter vs. McCall very possible for Oct 6th.

Nothing confirmed at this point but it looks like Maskaev is refusing to fight Peter under the DKP bid. He is against the spilt of 55/45 with the usual mandatory defense's being 75/25 in favor of the champ. So it looks like the WBC will set up a interim title bout with Peter and the next highest available contender, Which is Oliver McCall who is also promoted by Don King. So I would say if things don't get together with Maskaev/Peter soon (Which it does not look good at the moment) Look for Peter and McCall to rumble Oct 6th.

Personally I think this will be a entertaining fight and due to the styles and the chin of McCall i give him a decent shot at the upset win.

Thoughts?

 

I think you guys are hating on McCall due to age. We are in a different era where 40 years plus can still be competitive. Look at the style match up. McCall stuggles with boxer, Peter is hardly that I still think Peter wins by decision. But I think it would be closer than you guys believe it would be.

 

I bet grandpa could whoop quite a few of the top 20. Remarkable considering the life he has lived and his age.

 

Even though My heart wants to believe the same exact scenario. My gut tells me that Peter is awarded a close gift decision. Regardless I expect a good fight.
