Sam Peters a fraud and I bought into it!

Brooklyn1550 is a great poster with good boxing knowledge, I agree.

 

do you think his promoters will allow that fight to happen after last night?

 

You thought Mccline was total **** when Valuev was scheduled to defend his title against him. Remember that, I sure do? You thought Valuev was fighting an easy, undeserving challenger. Wow , how you have changed your tune, to fit your agenda! You are such a tool, shut up.

 

Not too many guys would straight-up admitt when they are wrong, and give credit to right man like you did.
One month would suck though.

 

I thought Valuev was total ****, did you know that I actually gave McCline a good chance? Claimed he'd have been the best test that Valuev had yet?

Had it not been for the knee, who knows, he was coming on.

Don't confuse me with another poster.

 

Ok, so you thought Valuev was total ****, and was taking easy fights. And werent sure that Mccline could beat him, but thought he would be his best test. Pretty much you thought mccline was **** as well, and another undesreving title challanger, but a little better then the others . Now you act like Mccline is superman that Peter fought him . You seriously are a tool.

 

You are misreading what I am saying, completely.

I have said that McCline is nothing special and that this brings a new perspective to Peter's standing, however, I was talking about in relation to Maskaev/Peter, which is still an easy Peter knockout win and how McCline is wholly different than Maskaev from every point.

I am not acting like McCline is anything more than he is.

 

So Peter is garbage because he got decked 3 times by an inferior fighter. Well Peter decked Wlad 3 times, so what does that make Wlad?

 

No way no how Peter knocks out Maskev. You're still buying into the fact that he knocked out bums, well that time is over.

 

Maskaev has been KO'd five times already, so he doesn't exactly have an iron chin and a great defense. Maskaev doesn't have the height or the reach to keep Peter off of him. I think Knocks him out

 

Compared to Mcline, Maskaev has more power, better stamina and better offensive skills (marginally).

He should be the favourite IMO.

 

If I remember right the ref stopped the McCall - Lewis fight because McCall wasn't defending himself and crying. It was a TKO win for Lewis anyways. But McCall clearly didn't get hit enough to dent his defenseless chin.

Anyways my opinion of McCline hasn't changed. He had a golden opportunity last night and didn't capitalize. He is a fringe contender at best. Sam just did not respect his power like he did Waldo and paid for it. The fact that Sam Peter outboxed him after getting decked three times should tell you all you need to know about McCline.

That said, do not expect Sam Peter to walk through Maskaev or Waldo's shots. His hands were much higher against Waldo and he blocked with his gloves and forearms. He'll do the same in a rematch.

Also Maskaev is flat footed and has no footwork. He won't grab on and lean on Sam all night either, which will allow the 6'1 heavy to get off reguilarly inside.

 

Glad to see some objective fans on this board. Good post

 

I am not sure Peter is any better than Rahman? Rahman has proven power and has Ko'd Lennox Lewis, Corrie Sanders, hurt and drew with Tua, in a fight most thought Rahman won. Rahman destroyed Meehan, who is on a comparable level to Mccline.

Who has Peter Ko'd? No one , and he didnt even hurt Mccline! And it was assumed that Peter had an indestructable chin, and that is not the case!

I think Peter is alot like Rahamn, and Maskaev would have a good chance of Koing him! Peter's power and chin was exaggerated by overzealous American boxing fans in look for a new hope.

 

Don't give me that ****...as if you've never been wrong about a fighter. I've been wrong about Ayala Jr, Bojado, Lacy, and now Peter.

Everybody gets somethings right and everybody gets some things wrong. That's life...
