Comments Thread For: Team Khan Fear Peterson Heading Top Rank, Pacquiao

Grow up Khan. You've lost the titles, your team hashed up on negotiations before the fight, and Peterson will not fight you again immediately. And I don't blame him. The truth is Khan's plans have been completely wrecked. He fancied himself as a p4p great and has been defeated for the second time by a lower rated fighter. If he misses out on the immediate rematch he faces being frozen out of title negotiations at Light Welterweight for 12 months minimum by which time he may well not be able to make the weight. And until Floyd and Manny retire the Welterweights is a long road with little reward...

Kahn has become an embarrassment to both Boxing and his training camp and has done a brilliant job in destroying his fan base. Pathetic! :bottle:

Peterson is now more popular than Bradley because of Khan's and GBP's crying.

Khan needs to quit crying.

Lamont would've gladly agreed to a rematch clause because Con could've avoided his mandatory like so many others do. He already thinks he's above the rules. He thought his arrogant ass was gonna chump Peterson in his own hometown and got the loss he deserved. WHEN YOU GO INTO SOMEONES BACKYARD YOU BETTER BE THINKING KO OR TOTAL BEATDOWN!!!! That simply is not true Peterson was his mandatory however this was not a mandatory fight he was not ordered to fight Peterson and wouldn't of had to until well into the new year but khan chose to fight Peterson he did not have to face him no fight was ordered as Peterson had only just won his mandatory position allot of people get this wrong on here and they are wrong.

let any boxer earn his keep, whats wrong if a boxer is presented with the opportunity of a lifetime to earn the amount that awhile back he only dreamt of? theres a lot of morons in this board who thinks they know a lot about boxing. Lamont Peterson for one deserves the big fight and any boxer at that, they put their lives on the line in the pursuit of their dreams why deny them when theres opportunity just because some morons have their own opinions?? puck you all, let him fight whoever offers him the best if you do not like it shut the f u c k up nobody cares for your opinion ... and im not even mad at that, capish? nyahahahaha Bang on the money. Khans attitude disgusts me, the prick is so ****ing needlessly arrogant. Fact is he is more interested in his image, social networking and ****, he totally totally underestimated Peterson, almost disdainfully so and he got properly caught out. Khan was on Sky Sports Ringside magazine programme a week after the fight and even the pundits on there said Khan probably lost a real close one with the pushing penalties....Incidently the annoying scottish guy as many of you call him who's name is Jim Watt was calling the push warnings all fight and wasnt surprised at all about both deductions, I had the feeling even the usually heavily biased Brits felt Peterson had done enough to maybe get a close one.

When will the crying stop???

A rematch clause could not be forced into the contract as Lamont was the mandatory for the IBF belt. Meaning Khan faught Peterson or he lost the belt. Lamont would've gladly agreed to a rematch clause because Con could've avoided his mandatory like so many others do. He already thinks he's above the rules. He thought his arrogant ass was gonna chump Peterson in his own hometown and got the loss he deserved. WHEN YOU GO INTO SOMEONES BACKYARD YOU BETTER BE THINKING KO OR TOTAL BEATDOWN!!!!

If Pac would fight Peterson, every hater would bash the fight even though they've requested Pac to fight an opponent coming of an impressive win, which Lamont definitely does even though it was controversial. With that being said though, I'd rather see Pac fight Bradley.

GBP and Khan never had a rematch clause because they never thought of losing. Now they know, so why should Peterson care? The fight was so close that if Khan won he'll never give Peterson a rematch. Poetic justice! A rematch clause could not be forced into the contract as Lamont was the mandatory for the IBF belt. Meaning Khan faught Peterson or he lost the belt.

IAB boxing organization Hey, A Mere Con, a little bit of info, brah. Don’t try to recapture something lost in that past; try to capture something even better in the future. There are plenty of other titles you can get. So why are you so insistent on getting "your" titles back? You’re only making yourself look bad by raising all these accusations and filing all these appeals. I thought you lost the fight to Peterson -- and lost it by more than the two points you were deducted for pushing. Besides, the ref continually warned you not to push, so the points deduction, in my mind, was valid. Look, if you are as good as you think you are, titles won’t matter. With your (supposed) talent, you should be able to win considerably more tiles in the future, particularly in higher weight classes. Listen, those alphabet titles don’t mean much and are almost irrelevant, especially when a boxer is moving up in weight. Finally, I’ll tell you what, pick some bum to fight, and I’ll sanction your next bout so you can get title. I’ll create a new organization and it will be called the “IAB,” witch stands for “I’m A Bitcch.” The name might be that good, but at least you’ll have title.

Poetic justice! Absolutely, I totally agree. Khan would NEVER give Peterson a rematch if it were the other way around. His b!tch ass just wants to move up and get his ass kicked any way. Accept your blessing in disguise Con and be happy cause 147 would've been your demise any way. You got KO'd by a nobody but was still manipulated into a title, the you got stopped in the 10th round by Maidana but had a paid off ref on your side, now your got beat at your own game so just GET OVER IT!!!!!

Peterson is a C-/C fight for Pacquiao, pretty much in the same way that Robert Guerrero is for Floyd. While I think Guerrero is far superior to Peterson, he hasn't really proved all that much at 135, let alone 140-147. With that said, neither has Peterson. He got dominated by Bradley, fought a draw with Ortiz (he really should have lost), beat a pretty good guy in Cayo, and than beat Khan (but he really didn't). Lamont needs to rematch Amir Khan. If he beats Khan again, convincingly and without controversy, than Mayweather and Pacquiao are still there for him and are that much more likely. There is absolutely no way Lamont should be chosen before Timothy Bradley to fight Pacquiao, unless Manny doesn't want to fight Bradley. I can't see why Manny won't just stand up and force Bob to make the Floyd fight on May 5th, but it what it is. It will be truly sad if Pacquiao then doesn't even fight Timothy Bradley. Bradley would be the best selection for Manny since Marquez in 08', or maybe even since Morales in 05', or Marquez in 04'. Bradley is top 10 P4P, unbeaten, in his prime, it would an A- fight. The only thing preventing it from being a full fledge A is that Bradley hasn't beaten someone like Berto or Ortiz at 147 lbs. But, if Manny fights Bradley, it has to be rated up there with Floyd fighting Hatton, who was unbeaten, in his prime, #4 P4P. If Floyd's not happening, the only other fight that it remotely possible for Manny that makes any sense is Miguel Cotto at 154 lbs, not at 147-150. If it's at 154, it's a B+ fight. If it's at 150, it's a C fight. If it's at 147, it's a C-. Enough said.

Khan better watch out because all this meddling might cost someone alot of money and he may find himself blacklisted and forced to fight back over in England on a permanent basis. I don't really care to see him fight anymore after this. Either that or some cement shoes

there really isn't that much controversy- a lot has been invented but anyone who saw the fight knows what happened. That it was a close, exciting, fight between two good boxers that could have gone either way???

what a load of **** Peterson v Pacquaio what a joke

“The reality is there’s so much controversy over fight the honorable thing would be for Lamont to do the rematch. well khan is not the most honorable boxer out there either. karma is a *****, you get treated just like you treat others. in the worst case peterson will vacate his belts to fight pac, and khan will once more become the man on a mission... to collect all vacant belts.
