Samuel Peter's very first pro fight

Wow, he's thin. What happened?

 

Peter is ur boy. Thats cool i can respect that. However, the punisher was comparing peter to foreman and that i can't deal with.

 

I think he was comparing Peter's fouling to Foreman, not his overall ability. Still, I can't recall Foreman CONSISTENTLY power rabbit punching guys to the back of the head. He practically jumps the **** off the ground winging them in. Do we have to wait til somebody gets brain damaged before he gets a point off?

 

I hear what your saying loud and clear, while Sam Peter is my favorite fighter at Heavyweight, I'm not blind to the fact his boxing skills are far from great. You pointed out somethings Peter has improved on and claim he hasnt, non existent jab, watch the second Toney fight and come back and tell me if it was nonexistent or not. As far as the head movement is concerned, Samuel is a work in progress, he's only 27 and is now starting to catch on theres more to boxing than just being powerful and tough, but you can see good head movement in the Maskeav fight if you look close enough.

James Toney has and still does have one the all-time great chins the sport has ever seen, taking punches from the hardest hitters from middle to Heavyweight, Sosa, Jones, McCallum, Jirov, Rahman, Peter, the list goes on, Peter was only fighter to actually seriously hurt Toney forcing him to hold onto the ropes to stay up, while also flooring him with a jab in there second fight, something no other Heavyweight was able to do, not even these former champs Ruiz, Holyfield, or Rahman.

Peter is number 2 for a reason, he gave Wlad all he could handle in September of 05, while just turning 25 that very month. He floored him 3 times and only lost by 3 points, I feel thats pretty good for a fighter as green as Peter, dont you?

 

Or until someone get hurts badly.

 

Matt's a good poster, the same cant be said for others. He provided some facts to his post, but I think he left out a few things, so I responded back to him.
