Peter-Diaz Added to Mayweather Card.

An intriguing heavyweight attraction will play the chief support role to the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Henry Bruseles fight later this month in the American Airlines Arena in Miami, USA. Knockout artist and current heavyweight hopeful Samuel Peter will face Cuban heavyweight Yanqui Diaz (formerly Yamplier Azcuy) over twelve rounds. The last fighter to face Peter, Jeremy Williams, questioned his punching power and was promptly knocked out in two rounds. Peter, known as the “Nigerian Nightmare,” will now have to test himself against Diaz, the fighter who took the name of former WBC cruiserweight champion and then undefeated heavyweight Juan Carlos Gomez. If the Mayweather fight is expected to be a formality, look for real fireworks between these two heavyweight contenders. Stay tuned for more coverage of this fight card coming soon.
