Sam Peter was probably just troubled with the WBC, the steroid scandal, and Oleg Maskaev's injury. It's not an excuse that completely takes the blame away from a poor showing but it's understandable.

Sam Peter has never caught my eye as a great fighter, he's a big puncher who throws wide and doesn't pay attention to defense.

A rematch vs Wladimir will have to wait for a long time



Sam Peter would be best served to fight a guy like Calvin Brock in his first defense to show he's back on track, but if he comes out flat he'll be in trouble!
