Samuel Peter
Samuel are you worried that your emotions will get the best of you during this fight?
Not at all. This is an easy fight for me.
What about the fact that he might be trying to get into your head with all his comments?
He can’t get into my head, and even if he could he doesn’t speak my language (laughing)
Most boxing experts seem to think the only way you can win is by knocking Toney out. Can you win a decision against him?
He will not make the distance. I guarantee you that. I’m going to beat him so bad that when this is over he’ll be my second wife (Laughing).What happens if you hit him and he’s still standing? What’s plan B?
If I hit him flush he won’t be still standing. Believe me!

Man you need to chill out, back off, and stop being a little pecker with this, it's getting annoying. Whatever I say is my opinion, even if I don't preface it all the time with "IMO". Obviously it was my opinion that Toney would never take the Peter fight, an opinion that was clearly wrong. Who gives a shit. You've been wrong before and you're about to be wrong again this saturday.
"I'd like to see Toney fight Wladimir, Samuel Peter (a fight he'll never take), and perhaps a rising star like a Sultan Ibragimov before I consider him the man at heavyweight."

Toney's still not "the man" at HW even though I beleive he will win this fight, I don't think he ever will be. Donald Hoskins says to tell you that you don't want to see him fight Wlad lol
Wow, you are really something there, pulling up an old post where I said Toney would never take the Peter fight. Hey, I didn't think he would. I was wrong. Deal with it, you're talking to a human being not a psychic.
Let's just see what your boy brings to the table, besides saggy bitch tits and a pack of franks along the back of his neck, on saturday night. His fans won't be there to fight for him then.
Keep it up though, the more shit you talk tonight, the more satisfying Toney getting knocked out will be on the 2nd.
Where were those stats taken from?
There's no possible way they're accurate either. Toney does not have 18' calf muscles, that's absurd.
You can find those numbers all over the internet.
Google "tale of the tape" and the fighters name
Explain to me how I'd "put my rep where my mouth is". A reputation is not a physical value you can put up for grabs. I mean, I guess if I'm wrong on the fight people will think less of my opinion, one way or another, but that isn't going to change regardless of what I say right now. I am almost certain of Peter's victory while you think Toney can't possibly lose. We're both set in our opinions. The difference between us is, my having a strong opinion seems to really piss you off whereas I don't care what you think.
If Toney wins, I will recognize him as one of the best heavyweights in the world. That's about the only change in me that result would bring.
Just by saying you "put your rep on the line" doesn't mean shit. I am not going to suddenly become a less intelligent person for backing the wrong guy in a fight. It's just a boxing match for God's sake, one of several thousand that will occurr this year. It's not like I'm picking a girl to be my wife and if I make a mistake with my judgement I'll pay for it in a big way a few years down the line. If Toney win's, Toney wins. I will probably get pissed off and maybe break something (you can be sure I'll be drunk as fuck come saturday night) but after that, hey it's just a fight.
But then you have LightsOut who's getting his panties in a bunch over what I have to say about Toney fighting as a heavyweight. It's my opinion. You don't like it, well fuck off. Toney is a fat middleweight. A fucking phenomenal fat middleweight, but he will always be a little man fighting in a division of giants. If he would knuckle down to some serious training and go down to 190 pounds, I would back Toney against ANY cruiserweight in the world. He would beat 'em all, and this is coming from a guy who detests Toney.
But Peter is a fucking bull with boxing gloves, as Moore once said about Rocky Marciano. His strength is God given and comes from having an incredibly dense musculature and skeletal system. That's something you are born with. A guy like Klitschko had the strength to tie him up when he got close to minimuize his roughhouse tactics but Toney is very physicaly weak at heavyweight. Rahman, Ruiz, these guys all pushed him around the ring in every clinch with ease. Peter is much stronger than Ruiz and even Rahman IMO. He is going to force Toney to fight every second and Toney will not be able to clinch.
Toney is in somewhat good condition for his physical state but a lot of his so called stamina is his ability to relax his muscles and only move when it's absoutely neccesary. Peter is going to be on him like a boar on slop, punching, pushing, pulling, and backing Toney up at all times. Look how tired a physically weaker and chinny Rahman had Toney just by pushing on him and exerting his will on him. It won't exactly be a walkover. Sure, Toney will score and dazzle with some nice looking counters, perhaps even get Peter's attention, but eventually when there is that much of a strength, youth, and size advantage, the cruder but extremely durable man will win.
Once again, Peter wins this one big.
It looks like that happens alot. Here's a little tip: When predicting a fight, don't put your entire reputation on the line by stating it as an absolute, it makes you look real stupid in the end.
After Toney wins will you admit you know nothing about boxing, and that your opinion is completely irrelevant?

You definetly have a point there.But when it comes down to it,we have one of the wildest punchers in boxing today,against an all time defensive great.Toney knows things that Manny couldn't teach Wlad in a million years.
I like this debate, and that's why this will be a good fight. I think it basically comes down to one thing. Can Toney take Sam's best shot? I believe the answere is no. Peter showed against Wlad that he can fight in spurts and be dangerous so that's why I believe he will win. The openings that Toney leaves will make Peter go into wild mode and some of those punches will land, trust me. The problem for Toney in this fight is I don't see him being able to hurt Sam. Wlad hit Peter with just about everything he could and got one "wobble" out of him. Sam won't be afraid to come in there and throw and throw and keep throwing until he hits Toney until it's "Lights Out".
True but Toney and Klitschko are two different fighters. Klitschko kept Peter at a distance where he couldn't land by sticking the jab and moving. Toney sits there and slips and rolls everything. For some reason this strikes me as a bad way to fight Peter. If you remember the Toney-Holyfield fight(when James wasn't officially a bowling ball yet), Evander caught James with some good clean shots early in the fight that hurt him. Toney was able to absorb most of it but still sat there and only moved his head. Against Peter the shots will be twice as hard and twice as wild. Don't be surprised if Toney gets clocked and KOed in the first 4 rounds.
You also have some good points!I don't see Peter knocking out Toney.But I wouldn't be all that surprised if he did.Peters the most dangerous heavyweight Toney's faced so far IMO.
Here's the thing: Toney is shorter than Peters and if I recall, he has a shorter reach as well.
Wlad fights tall and has a long reach and also was quite mobile when he fought Peters. IMO, it's hard to compare Wlad's physical attributes and style to Toney.

I hope Peter has a plan B in this fight.Something he didn't have in the Klitschko fight.Toney is way harder to connect on than Wlad is.

For one thing, those stats dont prove much outside of the fist and wrist stats, the rest can be manipulated through weight.
I doubt Tyson's arms are 16 in. I saw awile back stats on Big George that said his arms were also 16 in. My arms are 16 in. I'm fairly sure my arms are smaller than George's and Tyson's.
What kid is talking about is the actuall skeleton, a fighter's frame, that doesn't have everything to do with how much fat or muscle mass a fighter puts on. I pick Toney to win, that being said, Toney is clearly smaller than Tua or Tyson.
Where were those stats taken from?
There's no possible way they're accurate either. Toney does not have 18' calf muscles, that's absurd.
the measurement were probably done while Toney was in a coat...
Toney also said he weighs 270 pounds ,,,
Here are some stats on Tyson vs. Toney, I expect they're somewhat out of date. The two fighters don't look radically different though.

How is that CRYING? That's some legitimate bullshit of a punch. W/o that illegal punch, fuckin Peter is nothing. I honestly dont understand how the fuck people like Peter. I'm pulling for the craftsman. Fuck Peter and his dumb English...I can just imagine him sayin that shit.
Fuck him up Toney. Why does everyone think Toney cant take a hit n shit.? It's not as if Sam is running through and demolishing opponents. Slayed by Wlad minus 2 lucky punches...one illegal.
It is crying and hypocritical. When Wlad went down against Peter, two of the knockdowns were a result of punches to the back of the head. When Wlad fans spoke up about it (even though Wlad won) all Wlad haters were calling us baby's and bitches for complaining. Now that it may happen to a non Klitschko, the same people who were calling out Wlad fans are worried and bitching, that Sam Peter is a dirty fighter with a dirty reputation for illegal blows.
