    Peter has POWER he just doesnt UTILIZE it and thats what makes a GREAT KO ARTIST, had he been a pure boxer with his punching power he would be GREAT, but since his not that, he will still be GREAT in the HW divison and with the oppostion he faces today! NOONE except KLIT matches up to what he faced today and even with that KLIT isnt the boxer TONEY is and thus can be KD 3 times!

      I give Peter credit he did stun James a couple times. But he never knocked him down and I thought Toney landed more punches. Ecspecially the jab, Toney had that going the whole night.

          As long as fighters don't panic when their in their with Peters i don't see why other heavyweights wouldn't be able to go with Peters.

            What about George the animal steel ? I think he will have a hard time land with his reach and this may also be the only fighter he can not over power physically.

              Hell naw it isnt overrated. Toney is just out of this world. He took flush shots and smiled.

                    he took peter's shots better than klitchko did. if james was going to look hurt against someone, this would be the guy, considering he 's probably the hardest hitter in the division. those of you saying his power is overrated, remember tyson didn't ko all of the opponents he beat, sometimes you can't utilize it as well as other times because of the differing opponents.

                      Props to Toney. A natural super middle, blown up cruiser (however you see it ) went 12 rounds with a "so called" top 3 heavy who is regarded as one of the hardest punchers today.
