Mayweather Abuses Lamont Peterson

[DC Fight Fan]

Did Zab say this on Ustream, where did you get that from, is there a link? Ill be sure to ask Zab the next time he's on Ustream. It would give people more hope in Marquez if such a thing was said.

Yeah, he said it on Ustream. Ask him next time.

The reports are that Peterson was more gassed than Floyd after 8 four minute rounds with 15 seconds in between rounds. I believe that. No one has reported that Mayweather was physically handing it to Peterson outside of the fact that he was in better shape than Peterson. Actually is was reported by someone who was there, Zab Judah, that Peterson was giving Mayweather everything he wanted. Why would Zab lie?

Why would Zab lie? That is ALL zab does!! You are giving Zab Judah credibility?

Just last week, Richard Schaefer cleared up one of Zab's lies. Zab was telling people that RS offered him $500K plus 5% of PPV revenues for a Shane fight. That never happened.

Zab has been on-again-off-again with the Diaz fight. Do you believe that Zab fell through a shower door before the Mosley fight last year?

"The first day I think I [returned to boxing], I boxed eight rounds."

Mayweather sparred with such fighters as Lamont Peterson, an interim junior welterweight titleholder, and Mark Melligen, a rising prospect from the Philippines.

"I was working with a few different guys around my gym," Mayweather said. "They are all good fighters and they got me back sharp."

well I can agree with that, Lamont would be a very good sparring partner...it would benefit both himself and Mayweather.

I just dont think it would be 'news' that Mayweather beat Lamont in sparring. I mean surprise surprise, didnt expect that!
thats all Im saying here.

didnt know everyone was so high on Lamont Peterson.

eh I think a reason anyone would be so high on Peterson is the record

and at 27-0, that's the best thing Lamont has going for him

because opposition wise Lamont hasn't faced the toughest out their

his fight vs Bradley will be an interesting one.

Agreed.

They got skills but they haven't proven themselves yet.

Mayweather, in DC for a host of Memorial Day weekend events, received a proclamation from the Mayor during an in-ring ceremony, and watched closely as the brothers performed in co-main events for the ESPN2 Friday Night broadcast. “I have heard a lot about them and wanted to see for myself what all the hype was about,” said Mayweather. “I was extremely impressed by their true boxing skills. I see them having very successful future careers in the sport.”

This was from 2007.

Thanks. Just trying to find somewhere in the sources cited where it says Mayweather physically punished Peterson.

If Mayweather whooped Lamont Peterson , he's more than ready. Lamont Peterson is probably the more underrated and less known young prospect out there. I rank him above both Maidana and Ortiz in terms of ability. He'll be 140 pounds champ someday.
He made a former amateur world champ look like a bum against frenchman technician Willy Blain.

I have a source who said the complete opposite happened and that PETERSON put it on Floyd. Then I hear Zab say the same *****.
