The Peterson brothers

[slicksouthpaw16]

Margarito has been ducking the Peterson brothers for years, but I'll let that go for now as to not derail my thread. What's ESB?

Yeah, Bob Arum matched him against Cotto instead( a soft touch) because he knowns that either Peterson would knock Margarito out and end that momentum that he has going right now.

ESB is east-side-boxing.com. Its this sites's rival.

I can't figure these kids out.

I think they are tying to figure themselves out, really. Its important to remember that Anthony is 23, and Lamont is 24. They have a good amount of experienced, and both have impressive records up to this point, but they can take a little more time to step up to the big leagues, if thats what they need to do.
I am not saying they should wait a lot longer, both have a lot of fights. I am just saying if each guy wants to get another 2 or 3 Ws before fighting the big boys, it might ultimately be a good decision.
IMO both of them have the potential to be champions, in Anthony's case I think he should take one more fight the caliber of his last one, and try to get an impressive KO, set himself up for a real challenge. Either way, its not gonna be long. Both of them are at the point, the fights are gonna happen.

Good post, I partially agree. I think they've been on the major networks a little too long for that regardless of age, and their opposition for the MOST part (getting a lil better as of late for anthony more than lamont) is not helping at all. Still, you think Diaz is too big for Anthony still? I'd say that's a good fight. How bout Julio Diaz a lil down the line? Right now he might be a lil too lively and active in the rounds, so David Diaz might be a better 1st test because he's not great against boxers with good legs. Also, I thought DHop was a pretty great choice against Lamont. Who would you match them up with for their next fight?

I saw one of them fight live on the Vanes Mantriyosan undercard.. It was a pretty boring fight and after a while the PA PA PA PAPAA PA!! noise he made after every punch got annoying. He left a bad impression on me I must say! lol
