Bingo. You must not have seen his fights with Ortiz and Canelo. The kid can bang. He landed some pretty big shots on Canelo despite it being a huge mismatch. Khan vs Lopez would be an amazing fight.
Khan lopez all the way. IBF is a joke for giving him his belt back. Khan won that fight anyways even with the PED scandal, not to mention reffing and hometown judging.
Anyways Lopez is not to be taking lightly, he isn't big enough to be a true welterweight even though he owned Ortiz. Lopez is no joke though. this would be a serious test.
I would want to see Peterson rematch..That was a great fight,the Lopez fight holds my interest because it's new...But if I had to choose I would pick Khan vs Peterson...
Lopez is a lame fight, i havent watched him a lot but if canelo picked to fight him he must be a complete bum

Lamont Cheaterson won the idiot of the year award as stated by "NATAS" and I tend to agree. He doesn't deserve another payday. I like Khan-Lopez a lot. They both have a chance.
I would like both these fights to happen in 2013. If khan beats both fighters bring on the rematch with Garcia. I am saying he would win but he was beating Garcia till he got caught with that left hook. Take away Garcia's left hook and if Amir fights smart he wins the rematch.
To be honest either fight would be good for him, Peterson would be a moral victory and we know Lemont will try to make Khan brawl, so here would be a chance for Khan to showcase if he has learned anything
Lopez is a more dangerous fight, but if Khan were to beat him, it would be a great confidence boaster leading to a rematch with Garcia
A Peterson rematch win would be better for Khan's mental game, but I'd prefer to see Lopez get the money and a chance for another upset.
I think Peterson loses in a second bout away from home with proper judges and refs - not that Khan put on a clinic in their last bout, but I do think he edged out the victory and his slight improvements might help him cope with Peterson's pressure(ever so slightly!).
Despite breaking Ortiz's jaw, I don't think Lopez is a big enough puncher to trouble Khan. That seemed to result from an accumulation of damage/Ortiz leaving his mouth open. I'd predict a 12 round decision for Khan there (based on speed and just "looking" better), but a pretty good fight and performance from Lopez.
Peterson would be the better victory if Khan won the fight. Lopez is coming off of a crushing KO loss and it is not yet known if he is still as good as he was before Canelo KOed him. Peterson's last fight was a win over Khan and he is a world champion. If Khan can beat him he gets his revenge and a world tittle belt. He is back on top and in a good bargaining position to get a rematch with Garcia. I think Peterson would beat Khan in a rematch.
Hard to believe Peterson still has the belt seeing he hasn't defended it in a year.
Also Lopez, because people are more akin to him after his 2012 showing.

So I would pick Josesito Lopez because I think that would bring the best in Khan with the guy who got bit of power and boxing skills, it would be more than what it was during the Maidana fight.
I think Khan would beat Peterson soundly this time with Virgil Hunter on his side. The last fight against Peterson shown that Khan couldn't cope the pressure neither could fight in the inside. In the previous fight Khan has somewhat demonstrated his ability to fight in the inside and moving away from tight spots.
Someone needs to take that belt off him
Should be Khan
They did.
Danny Garcia took the belt when he beat Khan.
I haven't kept up with Peterson lately, but if he's allowed to fight in 2013 then it'll be a disgrace to the sport.
Khan doesn't care for IBF anymore
Peterson doesn't deserve 1/10th of what $ he got from Khan last time they fought
Khan does seem to want to fight him again though... for revenge.. But that's a bad mentality...which isn't good for his development
Lopez is a good fight... Khan can outbox him.
