Peter fought Klitschko on September 11, 2010, for the Ukrainian's IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight titles. Klitschko won again, by knocking out Peter in the 10th round. Peter weighed in at 241 pounds, two pounds lighter than their first fight. Wladimir Klitschko came in at a career heavy of 247 pounds of pure muscle. Both fighters had promised knockouts in the pre fight build up. Peter started the fight very aggressively and caught Klitschko with a good left hook in the opening minute. Klitschko ended the round well. Peter was caught with three hard right hands in the second round, one of which seemed to stun him. Peter tried to duck under the Klitschko jab, but was being tied up on the inside. After four rounds the fight became one sided in Klitschko's favour. Peter's right eye was closing and he was taking heavy punishment. After the ninth round Peter's trainer Abel Sanchez said he would give him one more round. Emmanuel Steward also implored Klitschko to be more aggressive. Peter swung wildly in the tenth and Klitschko put him down with a concussive combination. Referee Robert Byrd did not start a count and waved the fight off, awarding Klitschko the win by knockout.
