    Will Peter winning be better for the division?

    This is assuming the winner of Peter/Wlad goes on to KO Byrd.

    Opinions and comments?


    I mean if Wladimir wins and goes on to beat Byrd, we'll still have four champs as the case will be if Peter does so, but we know that Wlad and Vitali will never face each other.

    But yeah, let me get your opinions.

      The interesting thing to me about this fight is that Wlad has sparred Peter in the past, and supposedly handled him pretty easy. True Peter has a lot more experience now, and Wlad has gone downhill a little bit. I just think Wlad will use his size/jab to set up a late round KO or stoppage. Peter is still pretty green, and has a lot to learn. I dont think Wlad would have taken this fight if he didnt think he could handle Peter. Peter always has that punchers chance or Wlad could collapse again... LOL.. Interesting fight! This is probably the most interesting HW fight in the past 2-3 years IMO

        I will agree anything can happen it is a HW fight but man I just see no heart in Wlad once he gets rocked one good time , I am sure he thought he could beat Sanders and Brewster too but look what happened and I think Peter hits harder than either of those guys who knows we will see that is why they fight.

          Peter winning in spectacular fashion is certainly in the best interest of the division, if he comes out with a spectacular KO the buzz will continue and it will surely help our beloved sport.

          Wlad is damaged goods and this is his last shot, if he loses you can put a fork in him but if he is able to come out and kick Peter's ass I think it has to do a ton for his confidence and who knows what happens from there. The one thing I will say about Wlad is that he can beat Byrd every day of the weak, it is his kind of fight.

          Peter needs to come out swinging, if he does this then Wlad is gonna have problems.

            Do you think big brother will try to come out to avenge Wlad's loss, though?

                having an undefeated kayo artist like peter is much much better for boxing then having wlad win, even if he beats peter its a matter of time before he gets brutally knocked out again, we need new blood and Sam Peter is it

                  You didn't answer the question in the least bit.

                  I think if Peter wins, it would be better for boxing in the short-term. If Wladimir wins, it would set him up as a #1 contender again. Wlad is probably the most gifted of any heavyweight of the past 10-15 years, however he has a suspect chin and conditioning. Having the better fighter would work out better in the long term.

                    I definitely agree with you on that one man. Having peter around would be much better for the sport and one thing about Peturd he at least fights regularly. This fight could go either way as peter is untested and wet behind the ears and Wilma Klitchko is a shot fighter one left hook from peturd and Wilma will be nothing more than a bowl of Jello pudding again.

                    That is what the Klitchkos do. If one loses the other figures out where his brother made mistakes and then fights the guy in his next match. Either way hopefully peter can stop Wlad and then go on to stop Valerie Klitchko. Even if Peturd wins though he probably won't be able to hold on to the belts for long as he is a puncher with no head movement/footwork and he is really short.
