    allowed in Mexico? OK, Peter has the judges and ref, commentators, and Don King, WBC, Jose "The Bandit" Sulaiman, but why was the largest ring allowedin Mexico ordered for Peter?

    I have my theories, but what are yours?

    You obviously aren't looking for an OLEG victory, the way your stacking excuses for him prior to the fight...

    If anything, Peter would benefit from a smaller ring.

    Yes, but only "if" Peter fights his usuall fight. If you owned a fighter and also owned the judges, what would you pick? Esp., after McCline beat the crap out of Peter?

    he plans 2 try and move, I guess. I think he still feels Jameels right fist on his face.

    Other then the knockdowns, Peter outboxed McCline, and pulled out a well deserved victory. Pavlik gets all kinds of credit for getting off the canvas to take Taylor, so why not give Sam some respect?

    "If" Peter has lost weight, which we should find out soon, he must be preparing to go the distance, to outwork Oleg.

    Or just come in better shape. You're reaching here. A power puncher looking for a bigger ring?

    No, boxing strategy. Everyone thinks of Peter as search and destroy, but a very out of shape McCline kicked his arse, so what does he do for his next fight? Why the huge ring? Sounds like he will try to move, all he has to do is be standing to get the decision. WBC has already declared him the winner for that fight anyway. As long as Peter does not get knocked out, he has it made.

    Ok...now you got a bite...

    why do you think the judges, the ref, don king, sualiman, have all given this fight to PETER...???

    The WBC has done nothing but give OLEG his way since defeating RAHMAN, to the detriment of the sport at that.

    Farmy has been doing this crap for years. Way back in the Boxing.com days. He knows that Oleg is too old, too slow to deal with Peter. In but in his eyes it will make no difference HOW Peter wins the fight it will have been fixed. Back in the day Farmboxer was a sideshow on many of the boxing sites, but as sooo many of the long time poster have left many of the sites he has somehow become respected...But to me and other oldtimers he is still Butterbean:good

    Farmy's definately past his prime. SHOT would probably be an accurate description.

    Who owns the WBC? Who owns Jose "The Bandit" Sulaiman? Why the huge ring ordered by Don King for Peter? Those are the questions. Who owns the judges? The ref?

    It is the champion who chooses the fight venue. Gets the much larger share of the purse, etc., not the challenger. Also, why do you think the WBC should be able to choose the winner "before" the fight? Even the biased should be against deciding the winner "before" the fight? Is this WWF?
