    Based on the interview below, he seems only half serious to me with the smiling and laughing. And surely he knows that there’s no way he would be immediately jumping into a title shot first fight back.

    He's at the Shannon Briggs joke stage of his career, only he's a lot more likeable than Shannon.

    To bad he didn't fight Chisora ten years ago it could have been a good fight even though I think Peter would have beaten him...

    Another "game changer" fight for tiresome once he gets past the MMA fighter.

    peter seems like a nice guy, had a brief moment in the sun as the WBC champ and had pretty good power

    unfortunately he never seemed to really get back to form after the Vitali fight and he took a lot of punishment before going on to get stopped several more times

    Its nice to see him looking in decent shape and sounding good in the interviews. I know the exhibition scene is generating money for a retired fighters circuit which I hope is the direction he goes in. I would hate to see the guy get hurt trying to make an ill fated come back

    He's one of those guys where it wouldn't be a comeback. He pops in every few years to lose a couple for money, then goes back to Nigeria to buy his candy bars and potato chips. It's not a comeback, it is just time.

    The good news is he may very well be Tyson Fury's next opponent.

    Peter had a very short prime, but during that prime I'd pick him against a lot of today's lot in a heartbeat. He had legit wrecking balls for fists, the type of puncher that makes shotgun sounds every time he lands, and rocks people with glancing arm punches.

    Personally I never liked the guy. I'd put down 10 grand for a chance to get into the ring with the guy. If any Sam Peter representitives are out there and are interested in 10k and what should be some very cheap cannon fodder then I'm your chump.
