Well hes fought the garbage man, the post man and the police man. Now he can fight the firefighter and the heavy equipment operator and hell be ready to fight for the title.
But he has yet to beat the milkman. -------- And who is next for him. Who ever is standing between him and burger king.
Wlad also excessively clinched that whole fight, and had panic atacks everytime Peter landed anything. Wlad looked very fragile in the fight. Then again he always does when faced against a aggressively heavy puncher. There's a great video on youtube titled "Octapussy", it shows how bad Wlad had to hold onto Peter in fear of Peter's power. Just to win the fight.
The clinching is a Steward trick. Lewis used to do it all the time. Dude, you're killing me with the panic attacks. I'm laughing but Wlad is a beast of a heavyweight. If you had to eat one jab from him you'd be praying for mercy.
I understand that, but Lewis been in firefights before and didn't wind up on his back or go into a panic attack like Wlad does. Lewis went punch for punch with some of the heaviest handed heavyweights in the world at the time. Bruno, Briggs, Mercer, Vitali, Morrison, and walked away the winner everytime he was faced with danger. The losses to McCall and Rahman were punches he didn't see coming. I obviously would be knocked out by a Wlad jab, but that doesn't mean I can't say negative things about him as a fighter.
Tua vs Peter would be great and could make some serious change too. Add a mandatory status to this fight as well. Being with Top Rank and at IBF#2 position right now, he will probably keep fighting C level opposition till he gets a shot at Wlad, which could take a while.
He should keep fighting the good fight against obesity and get it on with someone like Odlanier Solis or Cristobal Arreola.
Peter has beaten four straight weak opponents its time to face a top ten type of guy. I personally want him to face Arreola but I don't know if thats a fight that has been pursued. But Top Rank has him and Solis and that would be a good fight. I wouldn't be shocked if Povetkin delays his bout with Wlad again and Peter steps up to face Wlad. His little winning streak has to be good for him. Its gotten him down to his lowest weight in years and its kept him active and his name is staying in the publics mind. But its time to face another contender.
