The re-birth of Vitali Klitschko....Just because he's been out 4 years doesn't mean he's shot because he still trained and sparred with his younger Wladimir. So he stayed in shape.. Seeing that peter looked bad in his last 2 fights. I say Vitali by devasting KO. Peter knocked down 3 times by a dude Vitali n Wladimir squashed. I know you ppl going to be like Styles makes fight and any fighter can be beaten on any day. True that's why I'm going for the upset. Look at his record. Sam peter gained a lot of experience from Toney, but If he doesn't come under 250. It's overLast edited by marc8989; 10-06-2008, 06:01 PM.Comment

Absolutely. Manny Steward announced this in an interview a couple of days after the fight when discussing it. He said max 60% power so as not top leave himself open if he missed.
So we have to conclude that the casual left hook in the 12th round which almost KD'd Peter, was some of the same, and if he'd hit him with bad intent, he could have KO'd him. We already know from the McCline fight that Sam's chin doesn't match up to his appearance.Comment

I totally agree with you, except that I'm not sure that there was even 1 legit KD. I've watched it very closely at least a dozen times, and my opinion, for what it's worth, is that;
Peter have a "do or die" effort in the 10th rd rushing Klitschko and swinging wildly. He forced Klitschko to retreat backwards very fast, to avoid the wild punches. When he got near the ropes Klitschko either had his foot stood on, or interfered with somehow, (we can't see from the video, but the effect was the like that) because he began falling backwards-not just his fast retreat, but actual falling well BEFORE Peter's punch. I think he saw Peter's right hand swing and pulled his upper body back far more that before, and the stability of his centre of gravity was lost. He lost his balance, for whatever reason, fell back against the ropes just as Peter swung, and the punch either just missed, or just grazed his chin.You can easily see that in falling back, his shoulders met the top rope, which normally are, especially for a 6'6" fighter at least two ft.lower in respect to his shoulders. Then he bounced off to a 1 knee position on the canvas, from which, he turned around and got up immediately.
Since he got up immediately and continued to deal out to Peter his boxing lesson, we have to assume that he either wasn't hit, or was just grazed by a punch which would not have normally bothered him, certainly not have put him down.Comment

Peter barely beat Steroids Toney, who came all the way from Middleweight, and is now trying to be the Big Boss after wins against McCline the stepping stone and that russian guy who hadnt fought in 2years ....I think Peter and Haye should fight to see who is the biggest pretender in HeavyweightComment

Actually it was Wladimir only who fought and KO'd McCline. Vitaly was to have fought him, but had to pull out with a disc needing surgery, so that's how McCline and Peter had their fight in which Peter won, although McCline, not a heavy puncher, KD'd Peter 3 times, twice in one rd, but didn't have time to finish him. I thought that McCline won, and if he didn't, a draw woulf have been a better result. After all, in the first few rounds, McCline was already up by 5 points almost impossible to overcome..The re-birth of Vitali Klitschko....Just because he's been out 4 years doesn't mean he's shot because he still trained and sparred with his younger Wladimir.
