Comments Thread For: David Avanesyan vs. Lamont Peterson in Play For February

If Thurman beats Danny, Peterson would be a good fight to take next, followed by Brook/Spence/Khan at the end of the year.

peterson isn't relevant at all. that would not be a good fight. he hasn't even won a fight at 147. think he fought diaz at a catch weight and he lsot that one so yeah no thanks. everyone is fighting everyone now....whatever that means. i guess peterson falls under everyone but please no. go for spence. stop stalling pbc

Peterson is a very solid fighter, I agree that he lost the Diaz fight, but tbh he was unlucky not to get the decision against Danny. But both fights were competitive, showing that he's still very much a tough opponent.

Man, I couldn't agree more! I could careless for this freaking cheater! I honestly wish he would go away. And its funny cause dude either comes into fights strong as a bull or not much power....I wonder why.

Different types of steroids lol

Peterson is a tremendous fighter when he's switched on. One of the most talented out there, proven he's better than Garcia and he needs to be back in the mix.

[Squ□redCircle34]

Good, him at 147 will make it even deeper!

Thurman
Porter
Spencer Jr
Bradley
Brook
Pacquiao
Peterson
Garcia
Diaz Jr.

Would love Peterson vs Porter

[Humean]

I like it, Peterson has been far too inactive of late but it will be good to see him back and this is a solid fight.

He's not "relevant" cause he didn't fight all year. Doesn't mean he's not a good fight for Thurman. David whatever his name is isn't relevant to any of us and he's the number 1 contender

Meh to Peterson, but I want to see more of Avanesyan. It's a shame he didn't get to capitalise on the (albeit rather meaningless) Mosley fight this year.

[giacomino]

Not much of a fan of Peterson but Avanesyan was handed an interim alphabet belt against an aged club fighter, then beat the corpse of Mosley. It's not like he's actually earned a legit title shot, so this is probably a decent eliminator.
