Povetkin vs. Peter for the IBF interim heavyweight title?

Peter came in for the Chambers fight in awful shape & gave an awful effort - didn't seem to take it remotely seriously
- lost the big one so he just wandered through a payday without any interest at all.
Now seems to have woken up a bit to the fact that he needs to get in shape & put in a decent effort, otherwise he's out...
If he comes in around 240 or under, should be a good test for Povetkin who needs more top level experience, & likely a good fight.
Povetkin is vulnerable to the right early, & Peter can really punch, as well as being strong & tough..
Should be interesting if it comes off...Comment

This isn't a bad fight. Who cares if it's for an interim anything, the alphabet straps are shit anyways. I much preferred a rematch with Chambers, and yes Eddie made the fight close for the first 4 rounds, then he stopped throwing as a result of himself and mostly Povetkin. Samuel Peter is still a name and still has a punch and he finally has a competent promoter, Dino Duva snorted all the profit he got from having Peter and had to sell stake in him to King to pay off debts (this isn't a rumor, it's well known in the game). King could care less about any fighter not named Tito Trinidad so Peter suffered having him involved. Bob Arum I believe has him now, he can get you big fights and screw up chances at dream fights. But his fighters stay busy and he pays his bills. If Povetkin moves his head, this fight isn't close. Still would prefer Chambers, but keeping Sasha busy against a top 25 guy and on TV; no complaints here.Comment

they were crying cause chambers was made to throw the fight(probably by the russian mafia) how else do you explain him schooling the pale blob for 4 rounds then all of a sudden he stopped throwing punches for the rest of the fight to insure he would lose.Comment
