No sound. No commentary and no crowd influence.
On the night of the fight, I had Peterson winning the fight. I didn't score it but felt it. Some rounds were really close and could have gone either way.
It depends on what you were looking for I guess.
Here's my scorecard:
Khan-Peterson
Round 1: 10-8
Round 2: 9-10 (IMO, Peterson did enough at the end to take it, but just)
Round 3: 9-10
Round 4: 9-10
Round 5: 10-9 (Khan starts to box more from the outside)
Round 6: 10-9
Round 7: 8-10 (Point deduction)
Round 8: 9-10
Round 9: 10-9 (Very close round, gave to Khan because he hurt Peterson)
Round 10: 10-9
Round 11: 10-9
Round 12: 9-9 (Point deduction but Khan did enough work to make it a 9-9 round)
Final score: 113-112 to Khan
Many may disagree with this card but it's what I saw after re-watching the fight. Like I said before, I had Khan losing on the night itself.
All in all it was a great fight. Would love to see a rematch (whenever it happens).
Khan seriously needs to work on his inside game though. He has really good bodyshots but doesn't use them as much as he should. Nodding his head during the time a good inside fighter is in you face is ridiculous.
He is one-dimensional.
Peterson on the other hand fought the perfect fight but I feel he layed off the pedal down the stretch. Round 9 onwards he decreased his output significantly and it lost him the fight.
