Peterson Prefers Rios REVENGE Over RE w/Khan...

:boohoo::boohoo:

I never said there was any slight. Where did I say or imply anyone was slighted??

I said your example was "erroneous"

 

Sorry if REED Rubbed your KLIT the Wrong Way....



REED:limp:

 

:boohoo:

Peterson isn't taking a feather from their cap. He's turning his nose up at a lucrative rematch to take care of "family business".

The Klitschko rematches were done in the absence of lucrative alternatives.

This is all. :dunno: I sought no offence, found no offence, too no offence, I just felt the example was incongruous, didn't fit.

 

When Chris Byrd "Beat" Vitali, Who AVENGED the Loss???...When Ross Purrity & Corrie Sanders Beat Wlad, Who AVENGED Those Losses???...Anthony Peterson Lost to Brandon Rios & Now Lamont Peterson is Looking to Avenge It...

The Pieces & the Comparison Fits PERFECTLY, Unless U're Willing to Dig 6 Feet Deeeeeeep on Tangential Bullshit...



REED:boohoo:

 

When Wlad beat Byrd, Byrd WAS the big payday. Prior to that it was Monte Barrett. When Vitali beat Sanders, Lewis was the big ticket. Prior to that it was Cedric Boswell. Vitali didn't fight Sanders because Sanders beat Wlad, he fought him because Lewis retired.

 

REED's Point was Very SPECIFIC & had NATHAN to Do w/"Paydays"...Not Really Sure why U Persist in Clinging to TANGENTIAL BULLSHIT...



REED:dancingBaby:

 

I'm sorry you feel this way. Vitali ultimately fought Sanders because Lewis retired. Peterson will be fighting Rios whilst Khan is still there and begging for a Re.

 

Riiiight...

Vitali Fighting Sanders had Absolutely NATHAN To Do w/the FACT that Sanders Whipped Wlad's Ass...Mere Coincidence...



REED:notallthere:

 

Vitali wouldn't have been fighting him if Lewis had arranged a rematch. Khan wants the rematch. Peterson will fight Rios.

 

No one cares, bro.

 

Reed does.

 

There were parts of the Ali act that sucked, but I agree that no mandatory rematch clauses for mandatory bouts was an excellent inclusion. (The other area that comes to mind was not letting the sanctioning bodies strip their minor titles for no reason--that was really getting ridiculous).

Don't agree about Arum. I'd have to see some examples, first.

Khan's best option is to call Peterson a pussy. Since everyone hates Khan already, he might as well play up the role. If Peterson does go on to fight other opponents--for LESS money--then he is ducking Khan. Khan should just move on, but call out Peterson at every occasion so that there is no doubt about who is ducking who right now. Then Khan can tell Peterson to fuck off if and when Peterson loses, but then seeks a $$$ match with Khan. Or Khan can at least lowball him at that point.

I think Peterson's best course would be to take an easy defense while Khan builds up a rematch and then do a rematch with Khan while he still has leverage and can get big big $$$. No way would I put him in with Rios with a Khan fight out there.

 

Of course Pendleton would have knocked out Khan. The more you lose, the better you are, right Bert?

 

Agreed, seems like a ludicrous idea.

What parts of the act sucked?

Also, I might be overrating Rios, we'll have to wait and see, but I think many people on this forum are underrating him.

Needless to say he'd get crushed by the likes of Pacquiao and Floyd, and I would pick Marquez over him too I think, but I have feeling he'll prove to be pretty hard to beat outside of the super elite.

I am fairly confident that he beats the Khans and Peterdudes of the world. He's a much better fighter than Maidana.

 

Ah...over 10 years ago when I was on top of it...checking the internet now...the wiki article is extremely and unusually weak so that's no help...this is better... http://www.ringsidebygus.com/ali-act.html ... but I'm not seeing the stuff that I had problems with... one of them is that it handicapped promoters...not letting them act as managers...it gutted the Don King way which is good in some respects, but it also prevents a guy like Keith Holmes from making big money like he did with Don...as I remember, Holmes was making 3x more with King than Arum admitted he could pay him...

It also had a bunch of shit that isn't being enforced...but my problems with the act were more about its inclusions rather than its future enforcement...

I don't think I liked the parts about states having to go by other state's suspensions...at least not in every situation...

The bill addressed shit that didn't need to be addressed and took away state rights in places it shouldn't have...

anyway...here's a pretty decent article from Charles Jay... http://www.boxinginsider.com/columns/charles-jay-takes-on-john-mccain-boxing-reform/ As I remember, I was in line with many of his positions back then...however this article is not from 2000, it's from 2008.

 

Nah...

REED Lost Interest in your Tangential BULLSHIT Several HOURS Ago...



REEDopcorn:

 

Don King, sanctioning bodies - you appreciate the finer things, mikE. :bears:

 

Where does the ref work? Where is Peterson from?

 

I appreciate fighters making the most money possible. Don King and sanctioning bodies are means to that end.

I also appreciate free markets.

I also appreciate that power tends to corrupt so things like sanctioning bodies and Don King-types need checks against their power. But so do jackasses like John McCain.

I also appreciate your usual inability to appreciate anything other than the obvious which means I probably lost you a few sentences ago.

 

The part in bold contradicts itself. Had to stop there, sorry mikE, you fucking idiot.

 

Reed, I'm sorry you feel that way.

 

Too crude, too crude, too premature. You're too face-first, go back to the 6 rounders kid, learn your trade.

 

In a boxing ring where thunder is thrown

America.


I see no relation.

 

Sometimes it's fun to throw some hard shots early. I've plenty of stamina in the tank.

 

You're going to gas, start pushing, then a point comes off and major paydays go down the chute.....:doh:

 

Sometimes someone makes such a glaring error - like saying Don King is the road to boxers getting their fair share - you can't help but load up on a big shot. The early KO is there, and even if you don't get it, he's got nothing to challenge you down the stretch.

 

how about if someone claims hopkins hit his peak at age 40+ versus tarver?

should you go all in for the KO, mike jones-soto karrass style?

 

Equally silly statement, but at least Irish knows better.

 

Nope. Never convicted on no hit no peak at 40 claim!!!

 

Who made it???
