    Peter vs Haye
    Peter vs Arreola
    Peter vs Tua
    Peter vs Povetkin
    Peter vs Adamek
    Peter vs Boytsov
    Peter vs Solis


    As long as Peter continues to come in shape and try, I would love to see these fights.

    There are interesting fights out there for Peter, the problem is he's going to be high risk low reward for anyone now, and it doesn't seem like there are many heavyweights out there who are willing to take on all comers. Arreola perhaps... maybe Briggs?

    Briggs-Peter is an interesting one. Neither will be likely to back down, could be a decent brawl

    Yes. Doubt Povetkin would take it though

    Who is that dude next to Lamon in your av? I've seen lot of Brewster's fights but not that one.

    I can't believe it, but I finally agree on something with Peter's manager:

    "I'm going to focus on making great fights, but not fighting the Klitschkos," Gotzev said. "The Klitschkos are in a league of their own. But I think Samuel Peter has a great chance against anyone else in the heavyweight division. I can see better fights in the heavyweight division that excludes the Klitschko brothers.

    "There are good fights, Samuel Peter against Cris Arreola or Povetkin or Tomasz Adamek or David Haye. Sam is still one of the most murderous punchers in boxing, but needs to be matched up right. So first of the year, he'll be back. He'll get a win and then we'll shoot for a big match against one of those four."

    Peter is a very crude fighter, who has probably squeezed the most he can out of his limited abilities. Arreola looks like Chambers next to him and would likely beat him on points imo. I'd give Peter a shot against anyone who is small or fights small, with a shaky chin.

    That would be a huge step up for Ustinov. His best win is a UD12 over a 38 year old Barrett.

    Ustinov is a bum who ducked Cedric Boswell.
