Only one man will be left standing at the end of the most anticipated heavyweight encounter in quite some time. Wladimir Klitschko (44-3, 40KOs), once thought of as the heir apparent, will go up against the undefeated Nigerian Nightmare, Samuel Peter (24-0, 21KOs). The winner will be the mandatory contender for the IBF and WBO heavyweight titles, the loser will go to the back of a long line of contenders waiting for title shots. Klitschko has much more to lose than Peter, because his career is at stake in this fight. Peter is young enough to start over if he loses. Klitschko has two strikes against him, Lamon Brewster and Corrie Sanders, a third strike and he is out.
The staff of BoxingScene got together to voice their predictions, strategies and opinions on the upcoming heavyweight showdown.
Matteo Alderson - I like Klitschko in a tough fight. I'm not saying that Wlad is one of the best heavyweights in the world. I think his chin, stamina, and confidence will let him down in the very near future, but I just think that Samuel Peter is too green.
Ja Lang Greene - If you listen to all of boxing experts speak, most will tell you that experience is the key. However, most fail to follow that belief when it comes to predictions. Wladimir will not only stop Peter, but will look impressive doing it.
