I think Peterson will test Khan the way some thought Zab would test him but i dont see him beating Amir. The only fighter at 140 that has more than a punchers chance against Amir is Bradley but he clearly doesnt want to take that risk with a potential Pac fight on the horizon.
Peterson-Cayo winner could face Khan in December

I say see where he signs and what are his first fights offered..Bradley next few moves will let ya know if he is holding out for Pac or gunning for Khan..I think Peterson will test Khan the way some thought Zab would test him but i dont see him beating Amir.

I agree with you, same time the IBF will STRIP Khan if he doesn't fight Peterson-Cayo winner. Thats a simple fact he can't duck Peterson or he will look almost as bad as Bradley.Peterson is a solid fighter and just as good as anyone on Khan's resume. When we think of Maidana lets not forget he looked like **** against Morales and Chop Chop and could have lost his biggest fight with Ortiz if Vic didnt bitc up and have that mental breakdown. Maidana's matchup with Khan showed that his power wasnt all it was cracked up to be as well. I like Maidana he is a no nonsense brawler who comes to fight and shows heart but he isnt as good as advertised.
I would rather see Peterson-Khan than Morales but a FOTY rematch is always something that catches the eye of a guy like me.
The worst thing about this is that fight with Morales for the green belt whilst Khan dumps the IBF is likely.
Cos EVERYONE loves the look of that green belt!Last edited by DET. IRONSIDE; 07-26-2011, 07:06 PM.Comment

Guys can someone clear up this situation for me. Does Khan HAVE to fight Peterson/Cayo to prevent being stripped of his IBF belt ?
Also, in regards to Morales... Does he get a shot at the WBC belt ? As I hear Bradley may be getting stripped of his title
If so I would like to see Khan Morales fight, just for the sake of winning the WBC belt, even though is the WBC is a load of rubbish.
ThanksLast edited by RedMuffin; 07-26-2011, 07:09 PM.Comment

I might be wrong cos I think you're allowed one fight in between winning the belt and fighting your mandatory.Guys can someone clear up this situation. Does Khan HAVE to fight Peterson/Cayo to prevent being stripped of his IBF belt ?

Peterson Cayo winner is the IBF mandatory but Khan has no mando for WBA cos he made super-champ and fought his mandos there.
That means his next fight could be his mando, Morales for the sexy green belt or Madiana Guerrero winner for nothing but the money and class.Comment

OH and he would have to face the Peterson Cayo winner after the next fight or he WOULD be stripped, but he might be moving up by then.
If he fights the Peterson Cayo winner it would set him up better to fight Bradley but Morales would have the sexy green belt all that time.
I think Khan wants the sexy green belt and then may move up or fight the mando.
That puts Bradley back to next summer.
Obviously not gonna happen.Comment

I guess Khan will fight Maidana's left overs for the sexy green belt...OH and he would have to face the Peterson Cayo winner after the next fight or he WOULD be stripped, but he might be moving up by then.
