Travis Walker just might surprise everyone and knock Peter out. -
im not sure about walker, he struggles against unispired journeymen. he got the size of a modern heavyweight but something is missing. he avenged the first round defeat in which the stoppage was premature. but again in that fight he didnt exactly do anythin to convince the ref that he could continue the battle. also i've seen a fight where he struggled against a short and fat George Garcia, he had his moments, knocking garcia down, but it was surprising seeing a 5'10 250 pound opponent have his way with 6'4 athletic frame of 230 plus pounds fighter
peter has very good chances if the fight is madeComment

Travis will wreck Peter and any other TOP Heavyweight
Peter is no match for Travis. I have trained at Main Boxing and have seen him beat down the top ranked Heavyweights one after the other. Travis is the reason why Vitali Klitchko retired. Travis was the one who knocked him to his butt in sparring with a body shot while training for the Rahman fight. Thats the real Vitali was hurt in his prep for that fight and subsequently retired. If he appears "uninspired" by journey men its only because he's bored but against better competition he wrecks them. Both Klitchkos and Ibragimov have been beat down in sparring. Thats why they are calling out only those who havent sparred with him (Peter and Rahman). Theres going to be a new champion. No question.Comment

It's a well known fact that the supposed KD of Vitali Klitschko was a canard spread about by Don King and Rahman, to reinforce their Propaganda that K was afraid to fight Rahman, both to boost Rahman's faltering reputation, and to allow Rahman a claim on the full WBC Title.
Walker may have been the prelim fighter with whom Vitali Klitschko entangled his legs, thus causing the fall which broke his interior knee cartilage. I don't know. But, since such an entanglement and fall can happen to anyone, there'd be no special significance in this.
If the Klitschkos were the hugely successful businessmen that they obviously are, they'd have immediately signed Walker to their Promo Co., or tied him up contractually in some way..... Why leave him loose out there, to become a real menace. If he was dangerous to Vitali, he'd be equally dangerous to Wladimir, maybe even more so........Just my opinion.Comment

CARLISLE- You'd be doing us all a favour if you told us the names of the "top ranking heavyweights" whom you've seen being beaten down by Walker. Do they ALL train at that one gym"?? I am not trying to be sceptical, but at least, clear up any difference there may be between your assesment of what makes a top heavyweight, and mine.
One thing I don't understand which you can clear up........are these "gym fights' or are they just sparring. because gym fights may have a little more rrealism, but sparring is just PRACTISING certain movements, feints, attacks, defences, ripostes, footwork, head movements, etc. In sparring, no one is intended to be hurt, but to be carrying out previously shown movement, or to pin down a trainer-perceived flaw, with a view to correction.Comment

He's a guy whose first fight was against a hambone who had 9 losses-NO WINS in his career. Of his 27-1 record, I think about 17 were against guys with less than 50% records. Most of them a LOT less. His Best opponent seems to have been marcus Rhode, whose record was 29-26.
So we have CARLISLE'S word for it that he's a Klitschko killer. Personally, I need a lot more than that!!Comment
