I really think he may benefit from a new trainer. I think his father did a good job getting him where he is but he needs a fresh approach. If his opponents aren't fighting a certain way he seems lostQuote:

That isn't how rounds are supposed to be scored. What about ring generalship? Peterson chose how and when that fight was fought all fight long. What about clean punching? Peterson landed the clean punches all night long. If a guy runs but he controls the fight and lands the clean punches he wins the rounds.Quote:

When Peterson was running he was losing, when he was coming forward (engaging) he was winning. It's a shame really, because he looked like he had enough gas in the tank to fight aggressively all nite long. Who do you think came up with that fight plan?
By the way, I do wear glasses and I had them on. Dude, I was seeing good, I was seeing real good! Lol
I don't think it does him much good. He is slow and stiff. Slow one punch fighters don't usually get far. He's done well with what he has by sticking to a gameplan(which you have to credit the corner for) and superb timing. But if he doesn't time a guy he struggles. That's why Peterson came in with a plan to use multiple attacks. If you don't Garcia will time you eventually.Quote:

I agree. IMO he is an overachiever. Gone farther than his skillset should've taken him. BUT!! I am really surprised he was backing away in the last round & not willing to go in the phone booth & trade. I think Danny himself calls what he did in round 12 as: (running).Quote:
