    How old does Sam Peter look?

    Boxrec and other records list his age as 27. I interviewed Shannon Briggs this morning, here's what he had to say.

    "Back in the days, early 90s he was David Izon's sparring partner. How is that now he's 26 years old? Was he his sparring partner when he was ****ing ten? He's been lying about his age. This man is 37-38, now they're trying to make him like a young champion. In the Maskaev fight, they looked like 2 grumpy old men. Look how old that man look. Black people age well, but this man is not no 28 years old. You show me his fake-ass birth certificate and I will show you a man who is 38 years old."
    Wikipedia explains Peter's early 90s boxing activity.
    "In 1992, some boxers came to Peter's school to train. The curious young 11-year-old stopped by and asked if he could train along with them. He was put up against an experienced amateur and knocked him out. This marked the beginning of a successful amateur career for Peter."

    I agree, Peter looks a little older than 27, but it could be the way he grew up or just him being so big. You be the judge.

Briggs was talking about the early 90's when Izon had just come out of the Olympics. He said he believed Peter to be 38 years old.

              Foreign born fighters are notorious for lying about their ages. It wouldn't surprise me at all if SP was in his mid 30's.

                  But we ARE talking about boxing and in boxing we mostly look at men...a lot.
