    I still want to see him fight Tua or Arreola.
    What do you think he should do, hang around and hope one of the K.bros retire?

      He sure could, I would like to see how he does against Chagaev.

      We could have a Klitschko victim tourney.

        There's no shame in losing to the K Bros. Sam Peter is not a world beater and never will be but I don't think he should give up boxing. I think there's money to be made for Sam fighting some of the up-and-coming prospects of the division and even fighting the older guys like Rahman, Briggs, Tua, James Toney (trilogy anyone?). I also could see Peter fighting for some of the lessor regarded trinkets like the European title...

              Not only was Toney shot IMO but out of shape as well(no surprise) and undersized. Not all good combos.

              I just don't think he was ever the same after the first Wlad fight. That right hand from Wlad you have to watch. I thought he was going to take Peter head off.

              He was still formidable after that just not the same.

              I thought Vitaly beat whatever he had left out of him.

              And, I was pretty sure the Eddie Chambers fight was the final nail in the coffin.

              But, KO'ing tomato cans got him a title shot he didn't deserve. So is whatever.....

                After the Chambers fight, he wasn't even in journeyman status level.

                  but at least someone was willing to promote him

                  he will be taking short money from any major promoter that wants to hype up their prospect now

                  kind of like monte barrett u know..?

                    But, at least Barret could upset a prospect or draw against a has been washed up name.

                    I am not even sure Peter could do that anymore.
