Sam Peter is the most over-f**kin-rated heavyweight in the world right now.

    Nope Im not making a comparison between Lewis & Peter in regards to their fighting ability or accomplishments. Im making the comparison in regards to the hate that Peter gets, which is too much IMO. I think that based on what the division looks like, we need more aggressive guys like Peter. And I dont remember anyone calling Peter an ATG heavyweight or anything to that extent for people to be hating so much on him.

    I'm not gonna argue with u here cuz it is a bit questionable. I'm guessing he got the ranking cuz of his two wins over Toney, who they had high regard for. Not to deviate off topic but I think Chagaev's win over Valuev is the best victory among the current champs other than Wladimir's win over Peter. Think about it, he won a belt off a 7-footer who outweighed him by 100 lbs. and it wasn't a vacant belt either. Chagaev went in there and took it from Nicolay.

    OK. I've been an in betweener re Peter. The unwarrented hate Wlad gets exceeds Peter's. Maybe Wlad supporters want to give as they receive - I don't blame them. :(

    As a Wlad (Lewis too) supporter, why would I "hate" on SP? It would diminish Wlad's win over him. I think that was one of Wlad's biggest wins. At the time his confidence was not exactly sky high, and many were touting Peter as the next big HW destroyer. I thought it was a pickem fight. Wlad won a comfy UD - with some rough spots. :cool:

    Many Toney fans think JT won Toney-Peter I. My suspicions of Peter increased after their 2nd fight.

    Jeeeeeeeeeeeez... I can't wait till these two fight again in 2008. I think BOTH men will hurt eachother with Wlad getting the worst of it and falling due to him having nothing close to the chin Peter has. I also think Wlad will be at a HUGE disadvantage in that he won't have had a competitive guy in front of him for years and therefore will have no clue as to what to do when Sam cracks him one good. I think his hands will drop and he'll revert back to the panic attack thing and he'll get stopped. My opinion. :good

    Peter by TKO, round 8

    Peter is very overrated, he beat a blown up steroid-using senior citizen and already he is considered right below Wlad when he doesn't even have a belt. He has a strong punch, but he would get decisioned badly by any of the current champs other than Maskaev.

    So which heavyweight champ is not overrated?

    By the way-The blown up steroid user senior citizen was ranked in top 10 and defeated John the Quiet Man clincher Ruiz and knocked out Evander the real deal Holyfield.

    The question is which current champ out there wants to fight him when they have the opportunity to cherry pick other & less dangerous opponents?

    it goes without saying that there is a basic level of respect for any boxer. however, it also goes without saying that there is a clear distinction between decently skilled fighters who care about their craft and marginaly skilled fighters who only care about collecting a paycheck and would rather lay-down than put-up much of a fight. it is standard within the industry to refer to the latter as bums, get it idiot?

    On today's showing I believe Wlad, Chagaev and Ibragimov will feel very confident about fighting Peter.

    Maskaev would have knocked Peter out tonight. Vitali would have put Peter into the morgue!!!!!!! Vlad would very easily stop Peter!!!!!!! Valouev would stop Peter!!!!!!! Peter is all hype right down to Don King.

    After tonight there's no way Peter would want to get into the ring against Vitali unless he has a morbid fascination with dying young.
