    If your fighter was Arreola, would you believe in him?

    Toney looked bigger and fatter than Peter in that fight, and this is a former middleweight.

    Toney looked like pure **** in that fight. One of his worst performances, and even came in heavier for the second fight than the first.

    Not to mention, wasn't his conditioning trainer Billy Blanks for this fight? Lol.

    Come on.

    This is Peter's best win against a fat and out of shape James Toney who got a split decision against Danny ****in Batchelder in his next fight?

    Wow, the makings of a Legend.

    For comparison, in Toney's performance against Holyfield he was 217, in this one, he was 234. He weighed almost 20 more lbs on an already pudgy body.

    And it was 4 years later from that date.

    Peter is a garbage fighter. He lost the first fight with a fat 233 lb Toney, and lost to Eddie ****in Chambers.

    Eddie is the same idiot that stood right in front of Klitschko, the hardest puncher in the division, squared up, straight up and down, ready to get punched, and did the same thing against Povetkin.

    Peter is the same guy that threw 9 ****in jabs in Wlad vs Peter 2.

    This guy is not a good fighter. He's a ****in bum. Look what Vitali did to Peter, then think about what Lewis did to Vitali.

    The first Toney fight, Peter clearly lost, in my opinion.

    But the second fight, Peter won, hands down, and that was his best achievement, by far.

    Or a Klitschko nuthugger looking to big him up now. Everybody knew then and knows now that Sam Peter is garbage. He too, only captured a belt because of how **** the division is post-2002.

    He beat Toney's ass in the second fight tho. Surprised me a little bit, even though Toney was fat and out of shape. Peter's skills and technique are deficient.

    I think the ironic thing about Peter is that during his espn/showtime run when he scored notable victories he was out of shape the whole time. If he had been in proper shape he would have looked much better, and taken less punches. If Sam Peter had been at 237 for Maskaev he would have killed him. For the life of me I will never understand how a well paid team could let a WBC heavyweight champion come into the o2 arena in Berlin that poorly prepared in the fight which could have propelled him to a new status, even if he lost but put up a corrie sanders type effort. That Vitali fight tainted Peter for a long time, and unfortunately still does.

    Out come the Toney apologists.

    Toney has been many things and at the time of the Peter fight he was a top 5 HW. He schooled Ruiz, beat Guinn, and made a case against Rahman in that same chubby condition and 230ish weight.

    Toney came in at almost the exact same weight he did in the first Peter fight.

    The real difference was Peter came in 8 lbs lighter and was better prepared. Funny, how a fact like that doesn't seem to be significant..."uh, Toney was just worse..cuz he waz 4 sure. Who Peter?" Peter's better condition was the only factual variable in the two fights, surely it played a role in his more dominant performance?

    He came in at a muscular 249 pounds -- eight less than last time -- and beat Toney all over the ring.

    "I was really ready for the fight," said Peter, who credited the relocation of his training camp from Las Vegas to South Florida. "I didn't break for Christmas. I just trained hard; I ran hard, and I had never done a lot of running before." -ESPN

    The second Toney fight was a good performance. The Mccline fight was terrible. I couldn't shake the feeling Mccline knocked him down on accident and then carried him the rest of the fight.
