I think Toney will win in a decision on Saturday night.

I hope Peter wins but I expect another close one

I will put large sums of money that Peter is not knocked out though (considering he's never been knocked DOWN in his pro career)

Peter in a KO (prediction). Does Toney look like a blimp still?

lost some weight...peter was sharp...bout to win the decision...toney is tough but peter just handled him for 12 rounds...2nd round knockdown off a left jab...last time toney had been down since roy jones in 92

toney is talkin mad shit after the fight...that shit wasnt even close and he is saying he won the fight...that motherfucker complains as much as anybody...his head is still ringing...he sounds like a blabbering idiot

Announcer: "Do you respect Samuel Peter now?"

James Toney: "I don't respect no one"

hahaha

after seeing him fight tonight I think Peter is either going to knock Maskaev the fuck out for the belt with his weak chin...he's not as tough as Toney and cant hit as hard

Sorry, I'd have chimed in earlier but it was a busy weekend.

Right now after seeing this fight, the only heavy weight I'd say that has a chance to beat Peter is probably the one man who has already beat him. I'll with hold judgement on Valuev until I see him against a credible heavyweight. Klitschko made him look like and amature in their first fight and had Peter basically out on his feet in the last round. He's only getting better with Emanual Steward in his corner. There is a lot of talk about a Klitschko vs. Briggs unifier. I'm assuming Peter will win a title and that Wlad will take Briggs out in what should be a pretty easy fight. I'd love to see a rematch after that happens to go ahead and clear up some of the heavy weight picture. Sadly with the mandatory fights they'd both have to take, it probably couldn't happen until the middle of 2008.

Peter is like a better David Tua. One of the few big heavyweight fights I remember seeing was Lewis-Tua. Lewis just used his height to punch Tua from distance. Tua was too short to be effective at all at even being able to hit Lewis with a decent punch.

I don't know if Peter could beat Wlad if they fought again (though Wlad is getting up there in years) because he is still 6'7" and will probably use that jab from a far, clinch up close technique he used to win the later rounds in their first fight...but Peter has looked better each fight...swifter on his feet and with more precise punches, as well as adding some punches to his repertoire...but you can't forget, Peter has NEVER BEEN KNOCKED DOWN, PRO OR AMATEUR...and he did knock down Wlad 3 times even though he didnt knock him out

Can you think of a better gimmick fight than Valuev-Peter?

1/8/2007 3:22:24 PM

Valuev Tyson

or maybe Valuev vs. Bartosz on roids

Sadly, I can really see them trying to push Valuev-Klitschko and billing it as "The Biggest Heavyweight Title Fight Ever".

Although my favorite was still the

LEWIS
TYSON

Posters. The fight was terrible, but it was clever the way they highlighted the wording.
