Sam Peter vs Andrew Golota...Who Ya Got?

My thought is IF Golota can make it out of the early rounds and avoid a Brewster type situation he has as good a shot as anyone would. Look at what a total joke in McCline did to Peter. It took Peter 6 rounds to get rid of an old, glass jawed, inactive Maskaev.

Peter does have good handspeed/power for the first 2 or 3 rounds but he tires very very fast and after that he is not as dangerous.

I think this would be an interesting fight and have no complaints about it happening as long as the winner fight Vitali Klitschko.

 

The McCline that fought Peter and Valuev was much quicker than the Golota that fought McBride and Mollo. He had looser punches, more snap of them, and better overall delivery.

 

If this was prime Golota, I'd have absolutely no problem picking him to beat the hell out of Peter. Although I can't pick him here, if he does happen to win, I'll be the first to admit I was wrong and give the big man his props for finally getting the job done.

 

I will give you that. Golota is slow. Really slow.

But you can't say Peter is fast. Pffft. :rofl

Supioror speed? Oh please....

I didn't see much of Peter speed v a Old/Inactive Maskaev.

The thing Lamon and Lewis had, was Speed. Thats what killed Golota in the past. I know this isn't the past, but still the fact remains that Peter is made for Golota.

A Prime / Now Golota beats Peter.


I don't know where you get this superior speed from.

 

Peter is not fast enough for a Brewster type situation. Even at Golota's stage now.

 

Watching Golota's fights with McBride (live) and Mollo, he's most definitely not faster than Peter. Peter isn't fast by any means, but with single punches, especially his jab, he's faster than Golota right now.

We'll find out soon enough.

 

I never said Golota was faster than Peter.... I only said Lamon Brewster and Lewis had a verry great boxing aspect to beat Golota, and that was speed. No way Peter has any speed relivent to any of those fighters.

Peter might be a bit faster than Golota, but so was Byrd, and he still got his ass whooped and got a gift. And Byrd isn't one of them Speed type fighters.

Peter is a slow and fat Heavy with VERRY overrated power due to the fact of Jermemy Williams. Peter looked pretty bad vs Maskaev, due to his power that was vastly overated on these boards. I remmeber people saying Peter KO 1. Peter didn't even KO him, he TKO'd him. Just shows how much his win over Williams was. Golota will be ready and he will unleash flury on Peter and it will lead to a late TKO win or a UD.

But, like you said, we will find out soon enough.

 

Unfortunately i can see a geared up Peter stopping Golota after a few early knockdowns.. Round 3 or 4.. TKO..

 

Oh yeah, Peter isn't nearly as quick as Lewis or Brewster and he doesn't come outs guns blazing like that. So I basically eliminate the possibility of an early starching. If he does try it and fails, it'll effect his stamina and if the fight goes late, you'd have to like Golota's chances.

Peter's power isn't devestating like a Klitschko, Virchis, or Tua, it's only very good. I'm not very high on him anymore like I was pre-Klitschko and post-Toney II. I'd pick both Klitschko's, Chagaev, Valuev, Ibragimov, Povetkin, and Haye over him. His conditioning problems are going to catch up to him eventually, and he'll probably eat his way out of contention.

 

Let me tell you something , i spoke to Ivaylo in Germany prior to Peter v Toney 1 .. Gotziev said the only troubles they have with Samuel is getting him to listen to nutritional advice properly.. Food is always an issue.. I wish he would see the full picture.......

 

And to be honest, the only thing that seems to be holding Peter back from reaching his full potential is the food. It's very frusturating as a fan of his, but I imagine it's even more frustrating for Gotzev and Anderson. If he could get himself down to 235-240, he'd be a terror.
