Official Vitali Klitschko vs. Sam Peter Thread
Collapse
-
The thing with Vitali is, it looks easy to hit him with his hands low and with him bending down a bit with his chin out, but I think he does it on purpose so that he can counterpunch his opponents when they lunge in for that chin, which is exactly what happened when Peter tried. Klitschko is very good at being able to get his hands up to block body shots and straighten up or back away when shots go to his head.Comment

Vitaly is deceptively good, he looks like he just got out of a bar and had 8 drinks but you just cant land anything decent on him.Comment

Are you ****ing kidding me? He's been out for 4 years (which is why so many were predicting a KO win by Peter), and basically humiliated a guy with only 1 loss coming into the fight with the WBC belt, and you're "Not particularly impress"?
What should he do to impress you, exactly...fight two guys at once, using only his left?Comment

I changed my pick of Vitali stoppage round 7 to round 8 late last night on BoxRec, and got a perfect pick!

Good call. I figured it for 2nd to 4th, but I hadnt' counted on Peter's upper body movement (dramatically improved). I figured he'd be catching about 80% of those hooks and rights, instead of about 35%. Whether anybody noticed it or not, Peter did work hard to get ready for this fight, it just wasn't enough.I changed my pick of Vitali stoppage round 7 to round 8 late last night on BoxRec, and got a perfect pick!

It looked like Peter was going to wilt at the end of the 8th, and I thought Vitali was going to finish him for sure in the 9th. Oh well.I changed my pick of Vitali stoppage round 7 to round 8 late last night on BoxRec, and got a perfect pick!
