Originally posted by 4CornersKid View PostYou think Samuel Peter, Calvin Brock, Chirs Arreola, and the others, aside from Haye and Byrd probably, would have been Top Tier HW's in era's with Ali, Lyle, Norton, Foreman, M. Foster, and Shavers??? Holmes' era in the late 7's and early 80's, they would have been alright. They could have been in there with Berbick, Tunney, and others from Holmes' era. But, even Tyson's era, I don't see those guys beating Tucker, Biggs, Bruno, and Spinks. They would have been alright HW's in Tyson's era though. But, they wouldn't have been anything in the Bowe-Holyfield-Lewis era's. Ruddock, Botha, Golota, Tua, Morrison, and Dokes are better than Peter, Brock, Arreola, etc.

Originally posted by 4CornersKid View PostHe did beat Jimmy Ellis, Joe Bugner, Ken Norton, and Jimmy Young though. Those are better than any wins that someone like Samuel Peter or Chris Arreola have.
Just as an aside, I don't consider Peter's resume to be all that bad actually. He beat Toney twice, KOed a still dangerous Maskaev, and gave Wlad one of his toughest fights ever. Not exactly ATG material, but a level above Arreola, whom he's always paired with for some reason.Last edited by nomadman; 03-22-2012, 06:44 PM.
