Former WBC heavyweight champion Samuel Peter recorded his fifth loss in his career on Saturday as he fell to a ninth round knockout in the hands of unbeaten Robert Helinius in Germany.



The fight was for both vacant WBA and WBO Intercontinental belts.



The victory was regarded as the biggest for Helinius who is looking to challenge British David Haye for the WBA heavyweight title.



The much taller Helinius mostly worked behind his jab, showing Peter a lot of respect early. Peter, who at 259.9 pounds was at the second highest fight weight of his career, was mostly the aggressor.



Peter nearly put Helinius out of the game in the second round but he was unable to coordinate his attack due to the Finn’s crisp jabs.



Helinius took away Peter’s potential effectiveness on the inside by clinching whenever the action moved in close and after the midway point, Peter was looking weary.



In the ninth round, Peter walked into a short left hook he never saw coming and fell hard on the canvas.

and as long as he got paid for this one, i guess.

.

no probs then.

he'll do better next time around.

more training, etc.

win or lose, dem dey pay am.

!

The first thought that came to my mind when i saw how our kins man lost that match,falling like a log of wood b4 the eyes of the whole world was for him to retire and look for something better to do than to get himself killed one day all in the name of boxing but on a second thought i just wish him well because i am not God-Anything can happen anytime. GOOD LUCK Jonathan next time bro

I pray make dis guy no die inside ring one day. cos it's gettin 2 much.

lET HIM QUIT BOXING, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT HIS HEALTH

It is high time he quit the game cuz he didnt have the energy and zeal to continue again !!! . He couldn't have defeated my grandpa again !!

Peter should just retire before he is turned into a bowl of POUNDED YAM. Africans don't know when to call it quits.

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]make this guy go rest oh before dem go kill am for ring oh na becos e use goodluck win before abi na mistake e take win e wan cum try e self

Makes me feel His world title won a couple of years ago was a fluke.He should quit now!
He's always looked flabby and overweight to me though

I think Samuel Peter should seek Bash Ali's professional assistance on winning more fights at his age  

That is how he will continue loosing when he will not train.

Eran iya nin ogbeni yi ooooooooooo

I watched the knockout punch. Flattened him like a footmat for 5 mins. Even if the referee had counted till May 29, 2011, the guy 4 no get up. Fat blubber of a boxer whose defence is complete rubbish.

this is guy is disgracing the motherland

let him quit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hF1-RsxElk?version=3 has the match final punch-down (knock-out) It will take more than words of encouragement to bring Samuel Peter back to his winning ways. It will take Grit, Hardwork and Muscle all that Fat is making him sluggish and slow.

My fellow nairalander, Let us learn how to encourage people, it is better to keep silent than to pull someone down with words,Words are like seeds which we will all reaps whatever we sow.

Bros Peter, it is good to think you are another Cassius Clay in the making, but when the strings of Knock outs, Migraines, concussions is coming like torrential calabar rain, it is better to hang the gloves honourably like other kinsmen had suggested.

Time to retire.. Does he want to retire in a coffin?. Who is still betting on this guy?.
