Comments Thread For: Emanuel Steward is Not Worried About Klitschko vs Peter

Don't get ****y now, Manny. Wladimir still has a china chin.

I agree with Steward. Although Peter is a more seasoned boxer now, and if he gets his weight down to about 235 or so he will be faster, he still doesn't have the skills to beat Klitschko.

YES, he knocked him down 3 times.........but the 1st KD was a blatant, deliberate, rabbit punch for which he should have been DQ, and which WK alluded to in his after-fight interview; the 2rd was not a punch at all, it was a MISS, with a shoulder grab and and push to the canvas to which K also referred; the 3rd....if it WAS a hit (and this is debatable) it was a bare graze, and did not cause the trip to the canvas; that was caused by an overbalance into the ropes and a bounce down to the canvas. No question about it.

The final score reflected that although the purblind ref Randy Neumann gave Peter 3 KD's. Klitschko won every other round, giving Peter a boxing lesson.

He will likely do the same again, but it should be an entertaining fight.

peter coming down to 235 in 7 weeks? hell no

look for wlad to take pointers from his older brother and put an old fashioned klitschko beating on peter

Ali didn't just jab jab clinch. He could actually string combinations together, something the Klitschkos don't do except for the basic 1-2.

Well, Vitali threw 800 punches against Arreola over 10 rounds. I swear he threw a few combos in there while doing so. Actually, Vitali very seldom clinches. I challenge you to go back over his recent fights and count how many clinches Vitali has initiated in those fights. The number would be very low. So you are full of ****. The Klitschkos are not the same fighter. Wlad does clinch more since Manny took over, but not nearly as much as his enemies suggest. Vitali, however, seldom clinches. Just the truth.

Gee, yet that style worked so well for Ali -- though Ali only KO'd 60% of his opponents, while Wlad KO's 84% of them.

You must have been bored by Lennox, too, since Manny had him fight the same way Wlad does now.

You sad c*nt comparing Wlad to Ali
Wlad aint good enought to carry Ali kit bag or Lennox Lewis

I just think it is great the Klits are destroying boxing with their iron curtain control of the division. ***** must be running things and loving it from the corner just loving it. Thanks to our HBO and Showtime for ignoring the Klitties and their communistic domination of the division, you have our full support.

This clown does realize that neither Klitschko is Russian and that the guy who turned down the deal with Wlad is Russian? I mean, kinda ironic in a way.

Vitali threw over 1k punches against Kingpin, not his fault the guy wouldnt throw back and just went into the fight with one goal...survival.

Wlad is better, Sam is worse. Should be an easy win. The 3 kd's were bs.

Sam Peter needs new management, he should duck this fight. Povetkin, Haye and Valuev are idiots and cowards for ducking, but Peter is only 29, going to face a Klitschko for the 3rd time in his career, and he simply isnt ready to face Wlad again, he needs 4-5 more fights to get to where he was, improve his confidence and not just his boxing ability, get his weight at the right level, not just thinner, but in shape. He could still be a good champion. I fear this fight will end him though.

Really? When was the last time Wlad was down in a fight? When was the last time Peter was knocked out, and knocked down?

Peter has quit once and been on his ass multiple times since Wlad last ever touched the canvas.

Wladimir had, has, and will always have a glass jaw, he just hasn't been tagged in a while, that's all.

So he hasn't been hit at all since he fought Peter last time huh. Good to know.

He better have been already training and getting closer to that weight you stated of 235 or else he has no chance in hell to achieve that as there is just over 6 weeks to go.......

Peter is not what I call an athletic specimen who keeps fit all year round. Again, if Peter's hasn't been keeping fit, this is a big advantage for Klitschko!
