Robert Helenius vs Sam Peter - Part 2 of 3

peter is disgraced,i am so sorry

@samlolo1952 No world champion is a 'disgrace'. Peter just struggles dearly with tall heavyweights he can't handle them. He was definately giving Helenius a tough fight until the knockout. He's got: Toney/Maskaev/Williams/Mccline on his record and he floored Wladimir Klitschko 3 times. He's a proven heavyweight. This was just a nightmarish matchup for him style wise.

I'm sorry for Peter but he is too short.

I see best punches coming from him.

Helenius isn't very good in my opinion

[bpatrice49]

@SquallLeon81 Peter just CANT fight much taller fighters. Against Mccline, Wladimir, Vitali and Helenius he has been in all sorts of trouble. Peter is a very good boxer when he can find range and get leverage on his punches. He showed himself to be a talented boxer/puncher against Williams, Toney and Maskaev. When he fights the really tall heavyweights he's either too easy to hit, or tires himself out by constantly trying to evade punches. Not a well managed fighter.
