Fightnews.com is reporting that WBO Interim Junior Welterweight champion Lamont Peterson will get his opportunity to win the WBO title outright when he faces WBO champion Timothy Bradley on Saturday, December 5.
Earlier today, Gary Shaw Productions won a purse bid to promote the title bout and it will most likely be held at the Agua Caliente Casino and Spa in Rancho Mirage, CA. The bout will be shown live on Showtime. Gary Shaw Productions paid $575,000, outbidding Top Rank, who bid $451,000.
The peterson never let us down & come Dec 5th lamont will be victorious once again:)
ReplyDeleteAll-right, here is Lamont's chance to show the world what we all ready no. Lets go CHAMP!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnthony has lamont hasn't always faught who ever overall better fighter.
ReplyDeleteOver half a mill dam its been a longtime since sumbody from the way made a pday like that. Lp stay away from Adrian Davis & juice lol.
ReplyDeletemark my words he is going to get knock out,or hes going to pull out the fight
ReplyDeleteI challenge that Mr.Anonymous Lamont isn't built like that,he is one of the few elite fighters we have true champion inside & out the ring,just like jimmy lange.
ReplyDeleteIm betting the house on Lamont.
ReplyDeleteA tuff fight,train hard like u do and get that belt..ARSENAL..
ReplyDeletelamont box his ear's off
ReplyDeletecoach kenny,team upton.
did anyone see bradley vs nate cambell enuff said bradleys the real deal going to be along night for the headbanger
ReplyDeleteA Gary D. I would like u to do a interview with Lamont and his coach Barry H. and see what they think the key's to victory are.
ReplyDeleteIf Lamont is beating the crap out of mayweather jr. in training camp, can you just imagine what he will do to bradley. word is he tore mayweather a new asshole. lamont is the new champ on the block. he is here 2 stay}{
ReplyDeleteHEADBANGAZ WILL COME OUT ON TOP BELEE DAT....
ReplyDeleteI agree & may God bless the entire team.
ReplyDeleteYo y people always talkin about training and sparrin,Thats not a real fight.Nobody has to make weight 4 that shit.Thats a big difference, u would no if u ever fought anybody.I'm rootin 4 Lamont but that just gets under my skin when people say dumb shit like that.I aint sighing my name b/c i kno i kno that person.
ReplyDeleteBradley and Mayweather r totally different styles so even if he is beating Floyd up like u (HEARD) what does that have to do with this fight.
ReplyDeleteThats gonna be a good as fight.
ReplyDeleteSo Lamont can beat Floyd now.
ReplyDeleteMayweather has more money in his pockets then Lamont made in his career. But i guess he can say I beat him up sparring.....lol
ReplyDeleteI can tell you this aint nothing fake about sparring at any level,its something every fighter need & take very seriously. I believe lamont can beat most of these guys @ 140-154 so show the man respect for all he's done & everything he's about to achieve he representing our nation proudly and well:)
ReplyDeleteLamont has indeed fought alot of fights but never fought the likes of Timothy Bradley.
ReplyDeleteIt is my as I'm sure others in the area's hope that Lamont is successful . I know that his camp
knows it is going to be a long night for both fighters.
Best of luck Lamont
First off i really doubt lamont beat down mayweather in sparring. lamont dont even hit hard and hes not that active. and mayweather is head and shoulders better then lamont. yall need to stop spreading crazy rumors.
ReplyDeletehi haters. Absolute support 2 u L.P.
ReplyDeleteBoy,...., the haters be'a lurking, waiting to come out for even good 'ol doods, but excuse me; thats what y'all do.
Again, hi haters.
DONT CARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE I WAS THERE...AND YOU THINK HE DONT HIT HARD THEN GET YOUR HATING ASS IN THE RING WITH HIM. I KNOW YOU WILL GET PUNISH. ITS A SHAME PEOPLE FROM YOUR OWN HOME TOWN HATE LIKE THAT FOR NO REASON.MY MAN IS BLESS AND HE GOING TO CONTINUE TO GET BLESS SO STOP HATING AND GET A LIFE.YOU WILL NEVER BE ON LAMONT'S LEVEL JUST READING THE THINGS YOU SAY.ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU MAKE LAMONT WHO HE IS TODAY.
ReplyDeleteTHESE COMMENTS SHOULD BE STRICKLY FROM BOXERS.CIVILIANS AND TRAINERS THAT HAVENT BOXED (PRO) USUALLY DONT KNOW WHAT THE HELL THEIR TALKING ABOUT.NO OFFENCE
ReplyDeleteIts to bad we cant support each other in D.C. To many haters and gaters. Anyway, Good luck Lamont. Bring that belt back to silence these haters.
ReplyDeleteDo ur thing big boy may god bless u n ur team
ReplyDeletethe longer it go the more talent
ReplyDeleteyou will see from lamont
coach kenny upton boxing.
Wow this is amazing, well whoever said Lamont cant hit, i say get in there with him and then you will know,Good Luck Mechanic
ReplyDeleteDo your thing Lamont. With all of the quality fighters in DC, you're the one who can bring us home a belt. Best wishes,

tough fight for lamont.. he is figitng in california so there is a strike against him.. he may need a knockout to get a draw.. the wbo wants this fight to set up the campbell rematch.. lamont upset those plans !!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm pulling for this kid. He was homeless. He and his brother carry themselves well and aren't all thugged out. His corner talks a little too much. I remember the amateurs "headbangers in da house!" That's a little too ra ra cheerleader stuff for me but the young man (and his brother) seem to be on point. I think Peterson will win the fight.
ReplyDeleteOld School
lamont seems like a cool guy and i hope he does well in his career. But to say he is a big puncher is laughable. Hes a boxer with little power. And when i say little power ( ill explain to the multitude of idiots on this board) i mean little power compared to the top fighters of his division. Hes not gonna knock out any top guy. Im not disrespecting him im just saying how it is. so stop calling everyone haters just cause they dont hype up your boy.
ReplyDeletewow. lamont too big for this area. can i get a peak, just a peak, of a fight of you in DC in the ring?
ReplyDeleteanonymous who said cheerleader stuff was too much for him.... sit you asz down. every boxer does that. not just the Black boxers.
ReplyDeletewhich is what you meant, really.
Go Lamont! I love ya!
ReplyDeleteCan we get a picture of Lamont for this article?
ReplyDeleteRichie u cute & az 4 lamont well u sexi boo boo.
ReplyDeleteTony Jeter used to whoop Lamont.Peterson is a bum,Jeter is the real deal give him some time.
ReplyDeleteI usually don't comment, BUT...I can't stand this "crabs in a barrel" nonsense that you HATERS keep spewing. Predicting that this man will get knocked out is ludacris. Have YOU ever seen Lamont get knocked out before??? Didn't think so. Have you ever known anyone to knock Lamont out??? Again, didn't think so. All of a sudden you're Nostradamus. Don't think Lamont can hit??? Get in the ring with him and find out firsthand. Then you can get your ass whipped and go back and tell all your hater friends what you now know.... firsthand! Here we have a young man that has received noteriety and accolades for doing something POSITIVE and yet you HATERS can't seem to back off. This is why DC boxing suffers so much. As For Tony Jeter, fine young man and nothing against him at all, but NEVER was there a time when he used to whip Lamont Peterson, unless you know someone else by that name. I have witnessed FIRSTHAND (starting when he was 15 and 16 years old), mind you, Lamont Peterson go toe to toe and more than hold his own with numerous former AND current champions of the squared circle and more than hold his own.... Floyd Mayweather Jr. included! Facts are facts and beat fiction any day of the week. So that night, in Vegas, in Chinatown, Floyd did truly dance with a star. Still not a believer? See for yourself. Headbangers Gym, Joliet St. SW, Washington, DC. Any and all haters. Ooops, I meant takers. Must be a shame going through life wanting to call yourself a man, knowing you're a b*tch, cuz only b*tches talk like u haters do. Pull your skirt down and go on about your way.
ReplyDeletejoeD every things gotta be about race doesnt it. and to the fools that keep saying "get in the ring with lamont to feel how hard he hits" . yea he prolly hits hard to regular folks but compared to top notch fighters who have good chins he doesnt hit that hard. i dont see why people take that as an insult. he has other skills that make up for his lack of a great punch. And to blood sweat and tears u say how "all these haters saying lamont is gonna get knocked out are idiots." only 1 guy on this board said it u dipshit. And its funny how u tkae it to the heart if a couple people hate on him. you telling people to pull up their skirts but you the one acting like a little girl taking this shit so personally.
ReplyDeleteFacts are Facts and until he beats a wrothy (Top 10) opponent he will not get the credit you desire. This is Lamont's chance to make a name for himself outside of the DC area. This is what I'm sure he's been waiting for and look forward to doing. You guys want the respect but let him earn it on December 5th. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOkay, let's bring some real boxing talk to these post. Great fight for Lamont Peterson. Peterson has a great chin and is a natural pin point counter puncher. Bradley will come forward right into Lamont's web and will be blistered with double and triple left hooks to the body. Bradley is a very busy fighter and may well win 3 or 4 of the early rounds by his busy style but Peterson's relentless body blows will slow Bradley's work rate down and give Peterson latter round dominance. I would not be surprised if Peterson stopped Bradley between 9-11 by increasing his work load and going upstairs more where Bradley's chin has been known to be a little suspect. Bradley should commended for taking chances to get a title in other countries but make no mistake about it, he has been just as protected as Lamont Peterson and really doesn't have much more experience than Lamont overall. Lamont, Rock Allen, Devon Alexander owned the weight class in the amateurs. Bradley wasn't even heard of nationally and was nowhere near the level of Peterson, Allen and Alexander. In the pro game Bradley has had the benefit of being on "Shaw Time", thus getting more exposure and a title shot faster. Bradley's experience over Lamont comes in big fights. Either way I am predicting Peterson by 10th round TKO with Bradley's corner stopping the fight as the warrior in Bradley would not quit.
ReplyDeleteThats amateurs this is pro. True you need amateur experience but you cant say this guy owned the amateurs and also expect it in pro. Dont work that way. Good luck to the brother. He have a good chance in the fight.
ReplyDeletebradleys chin is questionable? hes been down in 1 fight his whole career counting the amateurs. people sure like to make stuff up.
ReplyDeleteAnybody who knows anything knows Bradley's chin is suspect. But keep on arguing I guess. Bottom line is

Only those who are sleeping on Lamont Peterson think Bradley wins this fight.
Lamont will win he believe in himself and so does his team,the least his hometown could do is support know matter what the circumstances are:) I dislike how this topic turned so negative grow up people.
ReplyDeleteMccombs why do you have to comment on every single issue on this website ?
ReplyDeleteIf you want to do that then start your own damn website so you can write your comments and then respond to them also.Come on man enough is enough.
No matter what still lamont Peterson stands, I hope u understand the road for him wasn't easy every time he had to step up he did,never once did he fold more like here I go welcoming any storm. Like lamont I don't believe in quitting after facing hard times adversities its hard to be broken when u seen the bottom of the pit and rised to the top:) Lamont I love you Bro and I thank God for you and Jimmy lange cuz u guys are true role models and superb atheletes. I feel like this if your not doin anything to become successful don't hate on some1 who is be motivated and inspired to better yourself,what ever it takes to get yourself out the hood as long as its of good I aint mad at you.I can't even trip forreal cuz most of you trying to maintain hiding behind screen names talking trash lol,then when u see the person its all love: u know what u are & who u are. I pray we make to a better day real soon.
ReplyDeleteFunny how u can act respectful while saying u think lamont is good but has some faults and that counts as hating. just cause i or others dont slob on his nuts doesnt mean we hate him or hope he fails.
ReplyDeleteMcCombs may have shown up for more post then fights,But the kid has open my eyes here today.
ReplyDeletelamont i wish u the best are sport need guys like u..you make boxing what it is. never forget the eye of the tiger.i belive in you..champ
ReplyDeleteThe Head Bangers are the top dogs in the area. Everybody knows that. I wish I could have been part of that camp coming up.
ReplyDeleteWHOEVER MADE THE POST ABOUT THE MECHANIC CHINS, NAME ON TIME IVE BEEN KNOCED OUT IN A FIGHT OR SPARRING, OR HAVENT MADE A 10 COUNT, U CANT, I WAS UP THERE TRYING TO GET BETTER, IF I TOOK AN ASS WHIPPING, SO BE IT I TOOK MINE, BUT IN THE END I BATTLED BACK, AND NO ONE CAN SAY IN THE END I WAS TAKING NO ASS WHIPPING, The mechanic
ReplyDeleteI would have guessed people on this board would be more educated than to think fights are decided on power! POWER IS OVERRATED I hope Peterson wins. I don't know how anyone could compare Jimmy Lange to Lamont Peterson. Not knocking Lange
ReplyDeleteAmen, their names shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath.
ReplyDeleteLamont came out of the gutter and now is on top.Lange was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and continues to be fed midgets after thirty fights.

Reggie, you are a good dude & always treated everyone well IMO. You still fighting or bad eye end your career.
ReplyDeleteA Friend
Not sure yet getting back into shape is muther, eye is better, just not sure yet, the mechanic
ReplyDeleteLamont and Bradley is a very good matchup, i think Lamont has a very good chance to make a name for himself and show the true talent he is, let's go home team.
ReplyDeleteI said it before and ill say it again,Lamont & jimmy are representing our area,I feel they are simular both being very humble inside & out the ring:) how can u get mad cuz a fighter isn't fighting who you feel he should fight please learn the business its more to it then what's being discussed. I pray that all is well with all the fighter preparing for the fight on the 26th of September,aswell as Lamont & the entire team:) Barry thanks for being the true man and life saver that you are much love & respect my friend. Oh and big Boog your a extra Blessing holding that special craft together keep up the good work fellas:) I will see you on top.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear Reggie, best of luck.
