    I’m talking about the full package Maidana has shown he can make a fight out of it against Khan and a damn exciting one at that, It was a fight that created enough doubt to warrant a rematch down the line.

    Peterson is no doubt a better technical boxer but he is not a better fighter than Maidana. Khan would outbox him without any real trouble Peterson does have good inside fighting ability but he is not going to be able to change a fight with it that’s what separates good inside fighter from a great inside fighter. Also Kahn is able to tie up well on the inside very well the majority of the fight would be Khan out boxing Peterson in fact if Peterson is focused on getting to the inside that would play into Khans hands even more.

      IMO Peterson would give Khan more things to think about in the ring than Maidana cause Peterson brings more to the table.

        Who are these guys that are the bigger and better challenges at 140 over Peterson besides Bradley?
        For me Guerrero, Maidana, Matthysse are all better match ups

          Timing off sets speed bro..Khan's major weapon is his speed and long reach..Peterson has timing and longer reach..Peterson spells trouble and a long night for Khan imo..Khan does not throw punches off the backfoot he jumps in to land,which will hurt him against a guy like Peterson who would time him and hit him with his jab or right hand..Peterson wants to get inside and will get inside but he won't do it like Maidana bro..So no it does not play into Khans hands..Oh and also a lot of guys are good at clinching but it will never stop Peterson who is very strong and will work with a free hand/or get his hand free..


          Getting beat to the body is a game changer bro,so many people have to see a guy get clock or be out on his feet to feel one fighter gave the other fighter problems..Not the case,body work can change a fight(looked to the Ortiz fight)and so can clean effective punching..Peterson has a better shot then Maidana tbh..Now more lucrative you right that's Maidana,better fight(meaning who has a better shot at winning)it's Peterson bro..

            Guerrero and Matthysee are both good fights better challenges I can't say that. They are all very close to the same level to me.

              Peterson would be to rough for R.G. and Matt's love the kid but come on the kid lost to Judah and just does not work enough...Maidana has the best shot tbh but he does not bring enough to the table tbh,Peterson by UD...

                  To me R.G. and Peterson's styles are similar as well as Maidana and Matt's..What pulls the two apart is Matt's is not as active as Maidana and that's why imo Maidana is the better fighter out the two...R.G. and Peterson are both boxer punchers but yet R.G.seems to not like it to rough(I just going off past fights because we won't see the Maidana match to know if this is still true)Peterson can careless and welcomes a tough fight which imo makes him a lil better..Not to mention he has a crazy inside fighting game R.G.does not...

                      Maidana is better then Peterson, so your little stat sheet above comparing them is irrelevant.
