Peter is so short? ;D
.
awwww someone put a little suit on Sam ....he is just adorable ;D
Sam Peter hasn't progressed enough as a fighter to handle someone like Vitali.
I have been a long time Klitchko fan, but I will be routing for Peter on this one. 1) because I am sick of Vitali stalling the heavyweight division down to stand still since last year, and 2) I would like to see rematch between Wlad and Peter so that we can have an undisputed heavyweight champion again.
Hope he knocks sam out ,
Dangerous fight for Klitschko now.He hasn't fought in how long ? He is hopping in their with an improved Peter since he fought Wlad. I still hope Vitali beats him down. I just don't like this fella. WHO NEXT !!!

This fight means nadda IMO.....I am annoyed at the fact Vitaly seems to be able to just come and go as he pleases or play games with the whole I am back I am not back BS......
I am rooting for a double KO
Agreed.Quote:

I see a very sloppy and ugly desicion for Peter.. Though I am torn because I like both of these guys and think both bring a level of respect and excitement in the ring...
Lyle I'm curious about your comment about Peter, I mean I dont put to much stock in Manny Steward sometimes, but he was singing Peters praises from the roof tops after the Maskaev fight, he was boxing beautifully with controlled agression and a decent defense.. I believe Peter has grown immensely from the Fighter that went against Wlad 3 years ago..

....tell me that's impressive :rolleyes:
He didn't even knock Oleg down!!!! And Oleg ain't that tough for people not named Rahman to KO.

Remember when he put Wlad on his ass 3 times and nearly had him out of there :lolhaha: Wlad and Sam are bums.Quote:

Vitali has never been down before...I'm more worried about how he takes a shot than how he fights, his fighting style is perfect to beat Peter and he's KO'd 32 of the 33 guys he has beaten.
JT he's boxing a little better but he NEEDS to put the pressure on, he gets lazy in the ring right now and the more I watch him the more I see the fat David Tua though without THAT much power
The problem I see here is if he beats Vitali it dosent really prove a hill of beans to me, only because of the long layoff and the propensity to get injured might hold Vitali back in training effectively making it an ugly fight with Vitali holding alot at the endQuote:
