Banked a unit here at MJ's with McCall over Selena (sic) last week.
NEXT!
Are you the next champ? I am said Sam.
The reason I came to Vegas to hang for a while is because I think boxing is a beautiful thing, and I got tired of flying back and forth from Jersey all the time.
And never is it more beautiful than when you get to experience one of the all-too-rare-these-days outside events at dusk.
I had the opportunity to sit at Caesars, in the new outside arena, under a star-filled night sky also lit by Vegas neon,
with the Bellagio water show in the background,
and got to see DaVarryl Williamson vs Wladimir Klitschko.
DaVarryl got robbed that night as Klit-boy took a page out of his sisters book and quit on his stool.
I watched as the crowd fav Klit went from cheers to jeers.
Wladimir began with the crowd clearly behind him but then DaVarryl (at least 25 lbs. and 3-4 inches smaller,) who was outboxed early, got over his initial trepidation and started to come on strong.
The cheers turned to jeers and the crowd booed Klitscko in rounds 3 and 4.
After DaVarryl knocked him on his ass in the 4th Klit-boy really lost the crowd as he began to back up, refusing to fight.
It is something to behold, to be in the midst of it, and see a performance command respect and sway the crowd to switch alliances, as Williamson did that night with that hard right of his.
All of a sudden Klitschko is sitting on his stool. Murmurs from the crowd began to grow in volume as everyone tried to figure out why the next round was not beginning. Klit was getting beat, and seemed hurt and bewildered no doubt, but, though cut over both eyes, neither looked serious enough to warrant a stoppage.
Then, all of a sudden, it was over.
Called because an injury prevented Klit from continuing.
And getting a beating.
It went to the cards and when they announced Wlad the winner the boos drowned out the announcer as debris rained down in the ring.
I never brought into the Klitschko hype in the first place.
I have waited for the right spot to make some $ on Wlad after watching him quit that night, and I think I have it in sight.
This is a step up for Peters, but it is a natural step at this point.
Wlad barely got by "A Touch of Sleep" but it's time for him to have a nightmare,
a N-I-G-E-R-I-A-N Nightmare.
Samuel is 24-0, and admittedly a 24-0 that has been cautiously acquired. But I think he passes this next test.
Klit should have quit after Sanders exposed him.
But his people have carefully built his career,
played the "brothers" angle,
played off that old favorite of heavyweight managers and promoters - whiteness - and were not about to let the Sanders loss stop them from trying to cash in on their investment.
So they fed him 2 confidence building bouts with stiffs back home in Germany, for easy W's.
Then he came back to the states against mid-level competition in Lamont Brewster and he got KO'd again in Vegas.
If you saw that fight you could see Wlad doesn't want to fight anymore, it was in the body-English.
Yet, after that loss they pushed him in with the much smaller DaVarryl, who many (especially Wlad's managers) thought was washed up after losing to Mesi by KO in round 1.
Klitschko got credited with a W but was clearly in trouble and most likely would have lost.
So, back to Germany for another easy confidence builder and a W.
Now, with their investment almost shot,
his handlers are grabbing the best $-fight out there for him, before he gets beat again and becomes worthless to them.
Toss out the cupcakes served to him for a bit of homecooking in Germany and Klitschko has lost 2 of his last 3 against serious competition, and would have lost the third if he didn't weasel out of it.
Peter is untested at this level but I believe him to be AT LEAST on par with Sanders, Brewster, and Williamson.
I know what I know and I saw what I saw - fear in Klitschko's eyes, in both the Brewster and Williamson matches.
And if I am on the money with this analysis we will see it again,
in his eyes, in the ring, early, on September 24th.
I believe he will hear the Peters hype, and fear the Peters hype.
I believe he will be Deer-in-the-headlights, like Golota vs Brewster, like so many of Tysons early opponents were.
I believe he doesn't want to fight anymore.
Take the up-and-comer over the on-the-way-down'er,
take the newest next-big-thing over the older, failed next-big-thing, (remember when everyone used to say Wlad was the better Klit, not Vitali?)
take the guy who wants to fight over the guy whose managers want him to fight,
take the future promotional money guy over the past one.
Take Samuel and lay the -190.
And let us see the end of Klit #1, hopefully to be followed by Klit #2 shortly after.
And maybe, just maybe, Peter can start to help this joke of a heavyweight division to heal and become respectable once again.....
