Anthony Peterson Returns
May 28 In Washington D.C.
Former world title challenger, Anthony Peterson (38-1-1, 24
KOs), the brother of two-time world champion Lamont
Peterson, is returning on May 28th in Washington D.C. at the
Entertainment and Sports Arena. Peterson will fight at super
lightweight against Saul Corral (23-18, 13 KOs), in his
first 8-bout partnering up with Team Freeway Boxing headed
by street legend, "Freeway" Rick Ross.
"I am excited to return to the ring, as my brother, Lamont
Peterson is now my full-time coach along with Sean Johnson
and James Baker, who were amateur boxing stars in their own
right in the area," said Peterson. "I am grateful to Team
Freeway boxing for putting this together. I want to thank
Sarah Fina, who has helped me a ton in my career. She put me
in a position to be as successful as possible, so I want to
give her credit for where I am at. Sarah believed in me when
a lot of people didn’t. Although we are not working together
anymore, I don't want her efforts to go unnoticed."
Peterson, who has been out of the ring for nine months, now
has a new team starting with Team Freeway Boxing and is
looking to finish his career as a world champion. The goal
for Peterson is to stay active and achieve as much as he
can.
"I am looking forward to making a big bang in 2022, I am
taking it one fight at a time right now, but my goals in the
sport are massive," continued Peterson. "I want to thank
everyone who stuck by me through the turbulent times, I know
it hasn't been easy - but I am back, and ready to put on a
show."
