Anthony has a nice record. But his time is over. He’ll be maneuvered into a tittle fight and that will be the end of his career. Unless some tittle becomes vacant and he fights a contender no one’s ever heard of before and he gets an alphabet trinket (silver, gold, regular, interim etc) then hell still be fed to a guy sith a more prosperous future.
But good for him to comeback and try to live his dream.
Don’t know why anyone thinks he can find a way to a title shot quickly. He has no ranking. He has no promoter behind him. He barely has any name recognition.
Maybe not a title shot at 135 or 140 because so many of those belts are locked up by one or two people or are soon to be, but he can definitely find himself in a big fight. I don’t think he can beat any of those big named non champions though, like Loma, Prograis etc. But I could definitely see him getting that opportunity, given his name and his record like you said.
OK, who paid to go see a main event where one fighter has a record of 30-19 with 13 KO’s? If Peterson is serious about making another run, the opponent has to be somebody, or a used to be somebody, or a almost was somebody. Not just a nobody.
