They call Samuel Peter "The Nigerian Nightmare" because the 6ft 1in, 250-pound boxer - possibly the most powerful puncher in boxing - gives his opponents bad dreams.

And if the 25-year old, who has knocked out 21 of 24 opponents, beats former WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko in an IBF elimination bout in Atlantic City on Saturday, he will hit the big time.

"My life's mission is to get a belt and be recognized as world champion," says Peter, a big bear of a man who possesses a soft voice like his hero, Mike Tyson.

"I was meant to be heavyweight world champion and I will not stop until I am."

It's a pity; the best approach would have been to knock his opponent out, straight.

the guy is good
