Sam Peter can feel slighted by what Vitali tried to do and deny him a shot until he proves himself




Both are fine and acceptable to me, I know Vitali and any other fighter would like money and the title sooner than later but it won't stop Vitali from being a successful fighter...he'll get his.....as will Sam Peter.

Politics really take fun out of boxing....politics and Don King
How can you say boxing takes the fun out of boxing when you've been the biggest supporter of that "emeritus" bullcrap. On one hand, you have guys out there fighting their butts off to earn their shot and on the the other hand, you have two selfish guys who want to be first brothers to hold HW titles at once, trying to do it the easiest way possible. So what's the bet Lyle? Peter vs either Klitchko and loser has to retire their name and start from scratch sounds fair to me.
