    Your man is toast, Dr.Eisenfaust exposed him badly.

    I mean.. I really think Peter's career is over.
    The beating he took, not only physically.. but spiritually and mentally.. was just horrific. Peter lived on his mental toughness, I think it's tarnished.

    Peter will never come back strong.

    Atlas said that? Take it with a grain of salt... its ATLAS... the guy barely knows his ASS from a hole in the ground. Im not saying Peter is ready or not.... I just think Atlas is a JOKE

    The guy trained a young Mike Tyson, he trained Michael Moorer to success and Barry McGuigan.

    I think he's pretty knowledgeable, with all due respect, you're just a chef.. I don't think you should speak about him this way.

    As much I like Peter, Atlas is probably right. Peter is blessed with power and natural size, but has developed little else over his nearly 8 years as a pro. He is the past his prime Barry Bonds of Heavyweight boxing IMO, if he can't hit the homerun he's more and likely going to get struckout.

    Peter will face an extremely tough fighter in Chambers, whose hands(especially the jab), are the quickest I seen in a Heavyweight in a long time. If Peter dont come out swinging for the fences early, Chambers will outbox him to a decision. After watching the Brock/Chambers fight again, I do see openings for Peter, especially to the body, something Peter has improved on over the few fights. This fight is a 50/50 for me, and the winner should get a title shot by early next year.

    Hes a real life Farmboxer on ESPN, this is very true.

    But he's also widely knowledgeable, he's trained very formidable fighters and gained success doing so!
    He successfully predicted the earbiting incident between Tyson - Holyfield, so the guy knows something, you know?

    His mean streak of predicting like a joker ended when he predicted Pacquiao to upset and stun DLH.

    I'd say that his predictions are somewhat fishy and that he's a funny character... but going as far as saying he's a joke, and that he could not know his ass from a hole in the ground is stepping over the line.

    He's obviously more knowledgeable than you or me, he's obviously been in the business far longer than any of us has. He's quite a character.

    Titty At-l-lass' prediction record is the worst in boxing, by far. He said Michael Grant was the best heavyweight in boxing, boxing's future. He said that Kirk Johnson would knock Vitali out, but Vitali harpooned the whale in the second round in MSG!

    That's not sarcasm, that's a genuine inquiry.
