IF the fight with maskaev goes through, and they have a Competent ref, peter loses the fight. Samuel peter to some, is an exciting fighter, because of wild swing, his power punch, and impressive knockouts over no names (Jeremy Williams was a devastating KO but, it was Jeremy Williams). Samuel peter has not impressed me at all as a contender, he has beaten No one to me that would prove otherwise. Yes i am a klitschko (brothers) fan, but more than that i am a boxing fan. And i call it how i see it, you may hate it, but someone please give me the list of fighters Samuel peter has fought that would make my argument false.
I did not have an issue with klitschko getting his shot over peter ( more interesting fight, better for boxing "Globally", and im a klitschko fan). He was given this champion emeritus status way before peter was even making a dent in the division, and being given this status he was able to use it at ANY time, it might suck for a guy who fought someone twice, paid sanctioning fee's twice, and not get the shot. Yea i would be pissed too, but, I would not cry foul play like camp peter was doing. Thats just being a baby. But now we dont have to worry about it, peter gets his shot, if he wins Great for him, if he loses Great for maskaev.
