featherfisted bradley bullied pederson on the inside wtf do you think lucas and even garcia will do to his ass? lucas and probably garcia tko him

Bradley lost the inside battle and boxed for 8 rounds. And he's one of the best inside fighters in boxing.

Peterson would obliterate Garcia inside.

I'd pick Peterson to beat Garcia. More likely they want Matthysse to fight him. That would be a very good fight.

Peterson is the fighter that can truly test whether Matthysse and Garcia can fight inside, neither fighter has shown that yet, more so Garcia. Don't understand how posters here are saying Peterson will get fed to Garcia, Peterson can get in close, smother him and work him in close.

Garcia can't fight on the inside at all. Not only like you stated has he not shown it but he's shown that he can't.

He looks lost on the inside.

Good to see a proven drug cheat being rewarded with a lucrative promotional deal. Way to go Goldenboy, cheers for pissing all over my favourite sport.

[DoomCity202]

Good news.

Peterson is a quality fighter, which Golden Boy obviously recognized.

[Hitman Hodgson]

After being caught cheatin' I'm surprised at the amount of love he's getting on here. The first thing he should do is go to the UK to fight Khan in April.

Wtf this is a shock? I thought team Peterson weren't happy with the way GBP threw them under the bus after the failed test and how bob arum was good to them?

[Fetta]

Peterson a big time deal
Berto still getting big fights
Margarito got two of the biggest fights
Chavez jr will probably get big rematch

WTF!

Not what occurred, Peterson actually got the better of Bradley in close, especially in the 3rd round after he had gotten knock down and the 4th round as well, it was when Bradley decided to box and pick his spots that he dominated. Garcia is a mid range counter puncher who likes to throw with his opponents, he's not a boxer, when have you seen him box around his opponents while pumping the jab? Again, Peterson can neutralize Garcia's left hook by smothering him and truly test whether he can fight in close which I honestly don't think he can.
