The entry music for Samuel Peter could not have
been more prophetic, the repeated line, "The
harder they come, the harder they fall," would
ring so true in just a matter of minutes. You
would have never guessed that Jeremy Williams
thought for a moment that this young Nigerian
fighter could lay a hand on the seasoned vet.
Williams was cocky in days leading up to the
bout and when he climbed into the ring he
|
danced and paraded around and he purposely shoved his way
through the Peter entourage that was in the ring before the
fight and he made sure to get as close as he could to Peter,
glaring at the prospect with a disrespectful smirk!At the
same time Peter merely looked away, choosing not to engage
in any pre-fight stare down. This would prove to be a humble
and wise choice in just a matter of moments.
As the first round began Williams was testing the water
but quickly learned that it could get deep really fast!
After getting tagged with a right hand, Williams chooses
to box, and he does a pretty good job of it for most of
the remainder of round 1 as he slipped and ducked his
way in and out of Peter's punching range, and with the
exception of a small barrage at the end of the round,
Williams came out of it unscathed! Little did anyone in
the arena realize that in less than 90 seconds, this
fight would come to a grinding halt!
As the bell for round 2 rang Williams took on the role
of a boxer again and Peter just kept stalking, patient
and with a purpose. Peter then throws a lead right hand
which Williams ducks under with the greatest of ease,
but as he brought his head back up he left his hands by
his knees and got nailed with a left hook that has
"KO Of The Year" written all over it!
Jeremy was out! For more than 5 minutes he remained
prone on the canvas, and when he got up, he stayed on
his stool for another 10. Kudos to the classy boxing
fans in attendance who applauded upon Williams revival
from his unconscious state.

After the fight, Williams, who is known as "Halfman,Half
Amazing," said he was half embarrassed, and that he just
might be "done!" And Peter of course, says he wants
Vitali Klitschko, who doesn't? With the dramatic KO,
Peter takes his record to 21-0, 18 KO's and Williams
falls to 41-5-1, 36 KO's. |
