Watch this fight and your opinion might change. Peter has a really good counter right hand. Keep in mind that Nagy Aguilera knocked out Oleg Maskaev in one round, and Peter sent Nagy in queer street in two rounds.
froch is a fighter though, no real boxing in his game, at least not conventional. peter on the other hand is a wild swinging puncher who is trying and learning how to box. he's not a fighter by nature either, more of a sportsman about boxing, froch is a guy who is a fighter and happens to box.
i will give froch credit, he does have entertaining fights. peter, eh, not so much, the only thing you wait for peter is if he can land a big punch, and hopefully he can do it without holding his oppnents head in place while throwing the right hand, like he's known for doing.
Froch is there to win the fight not neccessarily the boxing match, he knows he'll have his moments in the fight most likely lots of moments.. And at the end of the day Froch is more than good enough to make everyone he faces fight, apart from Dirrell - who ran.
Peter on the other hand is shit.
I believe that title goes to Froch easily. Every time I watch Froch, it boggles my mind that he is a top 20 fighter let alone one of the title holders at SMW.

adamek would school peter, peter is a power puncher and nothing more, his skill is way limited compared to adameks.
adamek is also too smart of a fighter for peter and his size coupled with his skills and power are enough for him to be able to fight peter and win by UD.

At least Froch is awkward and uses his length to his advantage, he also has a jab.
Samuel Peter simply couldn't exist in any other division but heavyweight at the top.
Shrink Sam Peter down to 140 pounds and you get a bum. But then again that's why you can't rank heavyweights p4p.
I think Peter is one of the worst boxers out there operating at the top of any division.
Of course he can bang a bit, but he is shit. There are times when I look at him and actually think: 'This guy is actually shit at boxing.'
I have a lot of respect for all boxers, but I don't think Peter is a great boxer at all or even a very good one. He makes up for it in sheer gameness and in the cold light of day that is what an awful lot of today's heavyweights lack.
Adamek would smash him to pieces.

Peter was in MUCH better shape for Aguilera than he was for Chambers.
But yes, Peter vs. Adamek would be much like Arreola vs. Adamek. Adamek is a MUCH better boxer than Aguilera and would not get hit much, while slowing down and discouraging Peter with good combinations.
We shouldn't make too much of Aguilera's win over an old, slow, shot Maskaev. I said before his fight with Peter, Nagy is really not very good.
Peter is a better boxer then Arreola and he actually uses head movement. Also Peter's hand speed is more faster and he throws his punches with more velocity.
I think Peter vs Adamek would be 50/50. It's either Peter KO's or seriously hurts Adamek, or Adamek outboxes Peter by SD/UD. Peter certainly has a better chance at beating Adamek then Arreola did.
lol a trying to give props for knocking out the stature that is oleg maskaev.
I think adamek wins that fight pretty easily and I would happily wager with you.
