I say Rocky bangs on him like a big pinata and gets him out of there in the later rounds.
It's true Samuel Peter is much bigger and stronger than Rocky was, but as we in know in boxing size and strength isn't everything.
I envision the shorter Rocky parrying and ducking the jab and big right hand, and digging the body on the inside.
Perhaps Sam would land something meaningful in the early rounds, maybe even score a knockdown or two, but IMO Rocky batters him and wears him down.
I think Rocky would struggle against a skilled big man, like a Lennox Lewis, but against a big mamaluke like Peter it's hard to imagine him losing. Peter lost to Toney and got a gift FFS
We saw Sam quit on his stool against Vitali. He doesn't have the heart to tango with Rocky!
