Do you agree with me that round three was a 10:8 round for Peter?

[:Bobby:]

I've seen Peter - Toney twice. My scorecard was 116:111 in favor of Samuel Peter. In my opinion Peter's best rounds were the third and tenth. I scored the third round as a 10 : 8 round because Toney hold on the ropes, otherwise he probably would have gone down, plus holding on the ropes is not allowed, if I am informed correctly.

There were a lot (like four or five) close rounds, which is why the scores vary, in my opinion. But Toney was not robbed, he lost the bout but put on a very good performance.

One thing I noticed is that Peter was not trying to knock Toney out really (except for two or three moments), he was more concerned about winning rounds by landing something rather than huge bombs. Peter is underrated by many, he can box and brawl, believe it or not.

No I dont agree with you. Toney was dazed but peter couldnt do anything to finish him. Which means Toney was slipping and ducking punches with one arm. Now if Sam would have finished the Job and landed something else but one punch then maybe he gets a 10-8 round.

Thanks for replying to my post.
Do you think Toney would not have gone down, had he not been on the ropes?

Thanks for showing respect towards me and posting a message which probably has been posted a billion times already. How creative and clever.

Watching the fight,I didnt think for a second toney was in danger of going down.If anything holding to the ropes only hurt him,he was standing stationary right in front of peter.

Okay, but why should somebody as experienced as Toney hold on the ropes, if not for being seriously hurt?

10:8 means someone hit the floor or took a knee. That did not happen.

That's incorrect. There may be 10:8 rounds for other reasons like extreme dominance for instance.

This is exactly the question I want answered by those that scoff at the notion that Toney was seriously hurt. Funny that almost anyone I talked to who was there live admitted Toney was very hurt and his knees knuckled with that punch. He held on to the rope because he was about to go down.

Toney is good at hiding when he's hurt but it's not impossible to tell if you look carefully. This was one of those moments.
