    Why Is Peterson Wanting Khan Payday/Handout?

    Peterson was given a chance to fight Khan in May and his team turned down the fight, Believe Peterson and Khan will be a waste of a fight since its Khans last fight at 140lbs and there are more exciting fights out there.

    If Peterson fought Khan, Peterson would fight like Mosley, He will behave like a braggart about how he is going to stop Khan and wont be able to keep his big lips shut, Come fight night Peterson will turn up throw one lazy jab a round loose every single round to Khan and cash out.

    Peterson needs Khan not the other way around, Peterson was sleeping on the streets of Washington, Thats not Khans fault. Peterson needs to forget this notion that Khan owes Peterson a living and handout. The kind of message Peterson is trying to put across is something like "Im young and African American, So the world and Amir Khan owes me a living and handout".

    Who is Peterson? He is an ESPN fighter that has never won a world title in his life, Lost to Bradley, Got a gift decision against Ortiz. It takes Peterson about 8 rounds to get into the fight by which point he will already have lost on the scorecards.

    Lets get Maidana -Guererro winner or Morales instead, Khan should not fight another African American with a low work rate that will do nothing for his career or for experience. If Peterson gets the fight and I hope he doesnt because it will be boring to watch Peterson struggle to throw one lazy jab, Peterson must be given a total slave deal, No PPV split, Just the minimum purse that he is entitled to as a mandatory challenger, Peterson must not get one extra cent of Khans money. Peterson wont have to live on the streets anymore thanks to Khan if the fight happens.

    Why even go there? That garbage is all over this forum. Anyways, potential payday aside, he won an eliminator. So FWIW, he's owed a shot at Khan now.

      Peterson has never been in a fight where he ran. He doesnt fight like that. I think its a solid fight but I think Khan might dominate. Still, it wont be for Peterson not trying

        I agree. Peterson is a no name, and Khan wouldn't get anything from beating him. No reason to go there at all.

        Peterson had his chance and he blew it. Khan should either fight Prescott, Morales(if he has a belt only), or winner of Guerrero - Maidana. Seeing as how Bradley is intent on ducking Khan, I don't see anything else at 140 for Khan.

        By the time Khan has to face Peterson, Khan will probably vacate his belts and move onto 147. If Morales has a belt, and faces Khan, I doubt the IBF will even force Khan to fight Peterson.

          This!

          Peterson will get Khans vacated "Hand me down" belts anyway, Alot of scrub boxers will get Khans second hand belts when he moves up. Then these same chumps who fight over Khans leftovers will be calling him out. what a joke!

                Its a solid fight, I would enjoy it I hope it happens.... For some reason Im not sold on Khan but If he beats peterson better than bradley did It would say something. But I would be rooting for Lamont though.....

                    He just wants to smack Khan around the ring for a few rds. Far from a handout, just wants Khan to be a man and fight the best his division has to offer right now.
