Lamont Peterson: "Khan fight still up in the air. Mayweather fight would be easier".

Mayweather should fight Peterson on May 5th would be a good fight.

Peterson going up to 147 would probably help him, more than hurt him. He bloodied Mayweather's nose in sparring so why not. Pacquiao-Marquez 4 is probably already signed and sealed; so why not Peterson-Mayweather.

I agree with most except how lopsided you have Floyd winning. I say this because im one of those that doesnt count to much into compubox. I say this because the same people who use compubox when Floyd fought Oscar, are the same ones that say its far from accurate, and is it should not be put into play when Pac fought JMM. Or that Khan out landed Peterson, but it doesnt matter. Not saying this is you, but thats my thing personally. Dont get me wrong, i had Floyd beating Oscar (115-113 / 116-112), but not by some blowout. As for Hatton, i think the fight was fun and cometitive for the most part (not that i ever thought Hatton was going to pull anything) until the closing rounds. As for Ortiz.....as a fan, i dont agree with how that all went down, but it wouldnt be a Floyd fight without a show and controversy right? Like i said though, i agree with what you say, but disagree at the same time to an extent. I agree. I didn't have it by a huge blowout, but I had it 8-3-1 (117-112) but it could easily have been 116-112 if I gave Oscat the even round. I just think Oscar got a gift SD. I agree with compubox to a point, especially when someone out lands the other guy by over 100 punches. With regards to Pacquiao and Marquez, after re-watching each fight many many times, I;g give Pac the first, Marquez the 2nd, and the 3rd a draw. I had Amir winning against Peterson, 114-111. When the punch stats are close, say anwhere from 10-50 punches or so, I think the fight could have ended close, but it's about winning more rounds as well. With Mayweather-De La Hoya, the punch stats weren't even close. I just think the way the judges scored the fight had a lot to do with how the crowd reacted anytime Oscar threw his wild flurries, where only a couple punches landed at the most. There was one point in that fight where Oscar got Floyd on the ropes and attemptd to punch at Floyd's body and Lampley screamed "There goes the sustained body attack from De La Hoya" or something to that effect.....but the punches were landing on the right side of Floyd's trunks, not even hardly hitting his body at all. It seems a lot of times with Floyd fights, he will hit them with straight rights, quick left hooks, and a jab here and there for about 2:40 of a round, then his opponent will get him on the ropes once or twice for a total of 0:20 and throw flurries and people will say Floyd lost the round, but Floyd probably out punched them like 20-8 or something. But his haters will say he lost the round. I think that happend with his fight with Oscar a lot of the time. But i agree with you.

If you were Lamont Peterson, and you love boxing, wouldn't you want to fight the best boxer in the world (FMJ) for a career high payday? Lamont could move up to 147, fight Floyd, and even if he loses come back down and rematch Amir after. Makes complete sense for Lamont. I'm gonna go back and re-watch the Bradley Ortiz and Khan fights because I'm pretty damn impressed with this kid right now. If Money can't hurt him it might end up being a decent fight. I kinda want to see Bradley fight the Berto-Ortiz winner next and then go for Pac or May...

Hahahahahaha The only real controversy or super close fight Floyd ever had, Mayweather-Castillo I, Floyd gave a prime Castillo (an all-time really good fighter in his prime) an immediate rematch and won again, the 2nd time with no controversy. Mayweather-De La Hoya....anyone watching that knew that Oscar got a gift SD loss in that fight. Mayweather landed like over 100 more punches or something. I had that fight 117-112 Mayweather, and I was being generous to Oscar. It very well could have been 118-110 or 117-111 easily. Mayweather-Hatton....Floyd KO'd him and was up 7 rounds to 2 (88-83) at the time of stoppage, why would anyone want a rematch??? Mayweather-Ortiz....no doubt the Floyd haters would give Floyd mad s**t if he gave Ortiz an immediate rematch. Even Dan rafael, a notorious Floyd hater, said there is absolutely no point for a rematch with Ortiz, unless Victor beats Berto or Maidana at 147 or something. Floyd out landed him 73-26 in just 4 rounds, and people said Floyd started slow, why a rematch??? Who would buy an immediate rematch of Mayweather-Ortiz??? Pac waited 4 long years to give Barrera a rematch, until Barrera was past his prime, and not even good anymore. So, in theory, didn't Pac avoid a Barrera rematch until Barrera was past his prime and coming off another loss to Marquez??? Pac fought Morales and lost, the last time we saw Morales at somewhat prime (he looked god awful against Raheem and in his 2nd and 3rd fights with Pac, even you have to admit that). Also, when Pac fought Morales the first time, Erik was coming off a loss to Barrera. Than, after Morales was beaten by Raheem, Pac choose to fight Morales again and beat him. Than, after avenging his loss to Morales, he didn't fight Raheem (who had beaten Morales before Pac did) and instead fought Morales AGAIN. Than, Pac fought a draw with a prime Marquez in 2004, and didn't fight a rematch with Marquez until 4 years later, when Marquez was past his prime-still good, and won a controversial SD. Than, he waited another 3 1/2 years until Marquez was past his prime completely in 2011, and only won a controversial MD this time. So, Pac giving people rematches is only half the story.....he waits 3-4 years to give them. I agree with most except how lopsided you have Floyd winning. I say this because im one of those that doesnt count to much into compubox. I say this because the same people who use compubox when Floyd fought Oscar, are the same ones that say its far from accurate, and is it should not be put into play when Pac fought JMM.

I think the noise he's made in the past week has elevated him to some degree, he's a world champion now. I wouldn't rule it out. I honestly think Mayweather prefers Berto as his opponent as that is who he was expecting to fight before Ortiz. Imo he'll be hoping Berto beats Ortiz so he can get it done. If Berto beats Ortiz this time around, I don't see a problem with Floyd fighting Berto, if Mayweather-Pacquiao falls through yet again. I said the same about Pacquiao as well. The only fight I see a problem with for Pacquiao is fighting Marquez a 4th time, it's just not needed. But, if Berto beats Ortiz this time around, and I think he will, Mayweather fighting Berto wouldn't bad. It's a guy coming off wins, a big one over Ortiz, in his prime, I'd be fine with it. But, of course everyone wants Mayweather-Pacquiao.

Well those 2 lbs must have been the determining factor of the fight right??? But yeah, I just don't see it because how are you going to sell Lamont Peterson to the public??? Mayweather-Peterson wouldn't even sell 900K PPV's, let alone the 1.25 million Floyd did with Ortiz. It would be such a one-sided mismatch, it's not even funny.

Both Bradley or Mayweather would be much tougher fights than Khan. The Khan fight, no matter how you put it, was a close fight wit neither of the two dominating. Well Peterson was getting the better of Khan at times with the body attack on the ropes. But anyways, Bradley shuts Peterson out and Mayweather does as well. Peterson vs Khan I think will always be a close fight.

Do whatever you want Lamont.

146 wasn't it? ;) All I'm saying it that it wouldn't surprise me. Peterson has some hype at the moment and an easier pay day Floyd could not ask for.

No way. Besides Marquez at 144 (which looks like a great win now), Floyd fgihts people that are coming off big wins at 147, or that have at least been at 147 lbs before (Hatton was #4 P4P and had fought at 147 before, Ortiz was coming off a huge win over Berto at 147). Peterson is coming off a controversial win over Khan at 140, not happening. 146 wasn't it? ;) All I'm saying it that it wouldn't surprise me.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Floyd rematched Castillo, because Floyd lost and wanted to avenge the loss, so its a bit different from the khan situation. Khan dont need a rematch as he beat Peter. What is the point of a rematch in DC if they are likely to rob khan again? Khan just needs to improve now so he got a lot out of the peter fight. Actually khan wants his belts back, so he does deserve his titles back as he was robbed of them by thieves. If your wallet gets stolen, you are entitled to have it back, so khan is entitled to what is his back. No, Khan NEEDS to fight Lamont again, in Vegas, and beat him decisively this time. Though I had Khan winning 114-111, even with the BS point deductions, he needs to fight him again. With the BS point deductions, it's not hard to see the judges having Peterson winning, or Khan. Khan-Peterson II in Vegas needs to happen, or else Khan loses all credibility. Khan gained credibility back big time after getting KO'd by Prescott, now he needs to do it again. And it starts with a Peterson rematch in the spring, than fighting either the Alexander-Maidana winner or Berto-Ortiz II winner in the summer at 147. That's what Khan needs to do, though I doubt it plays out like that. Yes, I had Floyd losing 7 rounds to 5 to Castillo the first fight, but he rematched a prime Castillo immediately and won, the 2nd time with absolutely no controversy. Floyd took the first 5 rounds against Castillo, while a lot of people had Floyd dropping the last 7. Though with the judges giving Floyd the first five, it's not hard to see why Floyd ended up getting the close decision. But, I had Floyd losing that fight, the only really close fight in his career, to be honest. Mayweather-De La Hoya being a SD was BULLS**T, and anyone with half a brain knows that. But, if Lamont doesn't fight a rematch with Khan, than he should fight Bradley, Guerrero, or Alvarado.

dude is out of his mind. he loses the next time he fights a half decent boxer.

Peterson needs to give Khan a rematch and beat a few other fighters before he can have enough juice to call out the boss. Robert Guerrero would love to fight for those titles. Guerrero claimed that Khan says one thing but does another. That's why he fought Judah. These young fighters need to square off before they can call out the king.

Floyd would land well over 200 something punches on Lamont, while Peterson wouldn't even land 80 or 90 punches on Floyd. Peterson is pretty slow and packs no serious threat as a puncher. Even Ortiz, who's speed is not that great, is far faster with his punches than Lamont. I'd like to see Lamont give Alvarado a title shot or rematch Khan. If he fights Khan and wins again, he has fights with Bradley, Rios, Alvarado at 140, or he could move up to 147 and fight the Alexander-Maidana winner or Berto-Ortiz II winner. Lamont has plenty of options, but Floyd is a pipe dream.

serves khan right !!!!!!!!!! if i was peterson i would play extra hard ball (no homo) with khan becasue i know if the situation was reversed khan wouldnt give him a rematch !!!!!! just look at the facts !!!! brandis = no rematch !!!!!! maidana = no rematch !!!!!! thats what seperates khan from real champions like manny !!!!! manny gave morales a rematch then he destroyed him !!! gave piss drinker a rematch and beat him !!!! and barerra !!!!!! unlike floyd who said he would give oscar a rematch when that fight was close !!!!! and he didnt give ortiz or hatton a rematch even though it was deserved !!!!!! just the fact that you threw in a no homo for that makes me think you may indeed be a homo.
