I disagree, I don't think Peterson is a B class fighter so I see him giving Khan problems and maybe pulling the upset. Your response implies Khan is an Elite fighter and i think he is overrated. That is also why I think the fight will be compelling. Add to that the only thing Khan has talked about the last month ios who he is fighting next and his move to welterweight. All this together could spell upset. Not to mention Peterson has the edge of experience. Who has Khan been in with that is on the level of Ortiz or Bradley?
Peterson is physically a beast!

Don't get me wrong, I think Khan is overrated also. They make him out to be an "A+" fighter but I think it is an "A-" to an "A" fighter at best. I still think Peterson is a "B" fighter. He fought a shell-shocked Ortiz who couldn't find it in himself because of it to push the action long enough to take Peterson out. Ortiz would do some good work and for no reason he would just start running and that allow Peterson make his way back into the fight.I disagree, I don't think Peterson is a B class fighter so I see him giving Khan problems and maybe pulling the upset.

I think Bradley is overrated also. I think he is more on the level of Maidana but he only has the power of someone like Paulie Malignaggi.Comment

Why do you say for no reason Ortiz stop pushing the action???It(imo)was clear to see Peterson's footwork and Jab was the main reason Ortiz slowed down,not to mention the body work..I agree that Peterson is a B fighter,but so is Khan and Bradley(Khan and Bradley are B+ fighters imo)they all have a lot of work to. Do before I can say they are A or A+ fighters..Don't get me wrong, I think Khan is overrated also. They make him out to be an "A+" fighter but I think it is an "A-" to an "A" fighter at best.

I guess that we aren't that far off then. There is just a little difference in how we saw the Ortiz Peterson fight. I did give Khan the benefit of the doubt by saying he is an "A-" fighter, but seeing how he has been fighting a bunch of bums, I have no problem with anyone saying that he is a "B+" fighter either.Why do you say for no reason Ortiz stop pushing the action???It(imo)was clear to see Peterson's footwork and Jab was the main reason Ortiz slowed down,not to mention the body work..I agree that Peterson is a B fighter,but so is Khan and Bradley(Khan and Bradley are B+ fighters imo)they all have a lot of work to.

If ya watch the Berto fight again(Berto Ortiz)Berto never gave Ortiz any movement and he did not use his jab what-so-ever..When ya watch the Mayweather fight Floyd used all these things making Ortiz look very confused and outclassed threw out the fight..Now I'm not comparing Peterson to Mayweather,just pointing out that movement and a good jab will confuse a fighter like Ortiz,who can't fight going backward and is really limited in his boxing ability..Look what happen even when Ortiz fought Campbell,once again movement and a decent jab will confuse Ortiz who imo does not like to get hit(which is weird for a pressure fighter)...I guess that we aren't that far off then.
