Both guys took Backward steps last night

[SacTown1]

Despite all of the arrogance of Wlad's "I told U so" fans, & despite the thoughts of the HBO team, both guys took big steps BACKwards last night:

Once again, Wlad showed that he can't take a heavyweight punch...I'll give him the credit for getting up and fighting back, that was a 1st for Wlad, but the fact remains that his chin is china and he'll most likely get KO'd by Brewster if they meet again....

Peter was exposed as a completely 1-dimensional fighter, I give him an ounce of credit for going 12 rounds with Wlad and holding up after eating about 5000 jabs, but he had no answers for Wlad's jab &/or movement

on the flip-side MIGUEL COTTO might be the next highlight-reel 140-pounder, now that Gatti has faded into oblivion....Cotto definitely ain't a world-beater, he'd get eaten up by Mayweather &/or Hatton, but he just might be the most exciting fighter on the planet right now

Boo hoo.

Cry me a river ****face.

It's pretty hard to "take" frequent punches in the back of the head.

what you don't understand is that we already knew Wlad has trouble taking punches...unless you have been blind, we already knew that Peter was one dimensional...

we all went into this fight expecting Wlad to go down, expecting Peter to be one dimensional, expecting Wlad to have the better skills, expecting both men to show great power...

if anything they both elevated themselves because we saw what we didn't expect...that is that Wlad showed better stamina and ability to stay in the fight and keep control...and we saw Peter's untested chin be tested and show its worth in the HW division...

all that Wlad's weak chin and Peter's one dimensionality...if you are a boxing fan...you already knew that...that is what made the fight so interesting on paper when it was first signed...

I don't agree with Wladimir's victory being a step backwards.

In fact I believe it was a positive step forward to rebuilding his career.

Despite being knocked out a few times recently, he went in the ring with a dangerous puncher and proved to himself more than anyone that he can win these fights.

I think it was a positive step forward to rebuilding his confidence.

Funny how all the losers who lost their bets are crying. Wlad showed everything, EXCEPT for a GRANITE chin. His chin is decent at best, but I don't think he proved tonight that he can take a CLEAN heavyweight punch from a technical boxer.

We'll see what happens though. Many people wrote of Lewis, but we all know how he came back. Wlad can do the same.

only one of us is crying homeboy, I'm just stating the thought that neither guy has improved a whole lot recently, if you think your boy Wlad is a great fighter after what happened last night, feel free, it's your time 2 brag, but he's a big target with no chin, which will spell doom sooner than later

your glass-half-full approach is admirable, but I was hoping for a new SUPERSTAR to emerge last night, not for just another 12 round heavyweight hug-fest

you can have Wlad, no dirt off my shoulder, he's still top-15 to 20 at best

very well said...........

peter also needs to lose 10-15 pounds and improve his technique and speed.

You are obviously trying to compensate for the "prediction" threads you made.

I will say....your other predictions were pretty good. One thing you could have left out though...was this thread.

You have nothing to contribute to this site other than hatred towards every fighter who is not a picture of perfection.

Instead of making all the excuses and compensations....you might think about just shutting the **** up for once.
