Lamont Peterson: Why Is He So Overhyped?

I'm not saying I disagree with you, but what do you base that on? Guess resume.

Nobody is hyping him up and he gets the credit he deserves. I've still to see anyone say he's the next big thing!! I definitely consider him among the elite at 140 minus the experience, and an inexperienced Peterson gave Tim arguably the best 140lb guy in the world, a run for his money. Either you're hating or are lookig for a reason to. But to this day i've still to see anyone hype him up like he's the next big thing. Did he give Tim a tough fight without running and less quality experience? Yes, skill? Yes, heart? Looking at the Tim fight, yes. Did he **** up Floyd? Who knows but he fact that those rumors are out there, means there's some validity to him at least working and giving Floyd a hard time. Peterson is good and deserves his respect and to top it off he's a hardworking confident and humble guy. I completely disagree with you.

Peterson is a solid pro, good overall skills. He put up a good effort against the best fighter at 140 pounds in Bradley.

he's a solid younger fighter with potential, he would push khan to his limit he gave tim a war that wasn't a easy win for him he just was more experienced an better that night.

he's a good fighter with good skills and despite being down early on against arguably the best 140lb fighter in the world he came back and gave a good account of himself and absolutely no one is hyping him to be anything other than what he already is

They drop his name as an opponent. Not a world beater. He seems like a solid kid. I woudn't consider that to be hype.

Amir Khan hasn't beaten anybody of note fighting Peterson could change all of that.
