let's not forget RJ will be 38 soon and has lost 3 out of his last 4... and peter is a legit top 10 guy...Originally posted by THE REAL NINJAhe can **** and all that, but he's not going to keep up with roy for the whole fight .Comment

He may not have to. I think roy has lost his chin. And why is he challenging a blownup Jr middle weight. Roy has definately lost his cred in my book.Originally posted by THE REAL NINJAhe can **** and all that, but he's not going to keep up with roy for the whole fight .Comment

did you see roy's last fight? freddie can't get in there and take punches for peter. roy still has enough left to get a wide decision against him.Originally posted by cobracoreI think Peter would take a close decision, maybe 7 rounds to 5.
The keys to this fight is that RJJ is old, and that Freddie Roach is amazing.Comment

Believe it or not, I actually would be interested in seeing this fight as well as the Quartey and Mora match. I'd love to see how "bad" these Contenders are against real opponents. I don't know about Manfredo beating RJ... I think RJ would get the better of him. Mora and Quartey.. I think I'd have to give it to Quartey. I don't think Mora has enough power.Comment
