Hot heavyweight prospect Samuel Peter didn't take long to catch Brooklyn bigmouth Taurus Sykes on Saturday. Sykes only previous loss was a decision to prospect Owen Beck so being KO'd in the second round was a surprise to everybody. Samuel Peter looked his normal self early on, sloppy and plodding. However in round two he caught Sykes on the ropes and unloaded all over his head, front and back to put Sykes down for the count. Sykes promised a Brooklyn style beating but he put up no fight at all.

Now Samuel Peter is calling out Vitali Klitschko but I would suggest he fights a live body first. Peter has yet to fight anyone along the lines of his skill level and it will be interesting to see how he fares against the likes of Chris Byrd, Monte Barrett or Lamon Brewster. Samuel Peter is compared to ex-Nigerian prospect Ike Ibeabuchi but Ike was a better puncher and twice the boxer Peter is. Samuel Peter is built like a fire hydrant and can punch but his boxing skills are pedestrian. I would suggest Peter fights Fres Oquendo or David Tua next.
