RutgersJetFan Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Bell's actually been boxing for a really long time. Used to train with Don Somerville when he played for the Jets to stay in shape for football. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Peterson doesn't have any boxing experience Bell should prevail. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Peterson doesn't have any boxing experience Bell should prevail. I'm sure Peterson trains too, it's a common thing for football players. The only reason I know about Bell is because he trained in NJ for a while. End of the day boxing amateur or exhibitions really comes down to conditioning and how well you can take getting punched in the face really hard repeatedly. I highly doubt either guy was doing hard sparring when they were playing and if they were it was likely in heavily controlled environments. Training boxing to stay in shape and training to actually fight are two very different things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its gonna be a quick 1 round fight its anybodies game cause they will both be non stop swinging. If the fight goes 3 rounds or more the better boxer should prevail. The boxer that knows how to protect himself while the other punches himself out should win. Bell is a patient runner so maybe he will be a patient fighter and let Peterson punch himself out. I dont know how many rounds the fight is scheduled for and how long each round is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My uncle took me to one of those in the 80s at the Palladium when I was little. Mr. T was the ref and some kid that looked like he was in high school came out and started knocking everyone out. Guy turned out to be Matt Serra, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Andrian Peterson is a classic example of why athletes should focus on their career and leave romance/relationships/family til after they retire. This dude hasn't disappeared due to child support. Meanwhile Calvin Johnson got it right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Harper Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 It’s almost always disappointing watching non-boxers fight. Bell’s only chance is if he imagines Peterson as the guy who told him not to accept that offer from Pittsburgh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
