Khan lost to Peterson because............

[Unknown Champ]

Khan lost to Peterson because he wasn't fully up to the challenge. It was a great fight I thought, but a champion defending his name and the titles doesn't need a gift from the judges because he's the champ for a reason. The champ goes out and he wins, he always finds a way to win because he's the champ.

In a close title fight I go against conventional wisdom and say, it's not just for the challenger to take it; it's up to the champion to defend it.

Well put brother Im going to use that from now on when people say,
"you have to take it from the champ" rant

Thanks bro, it's one of those things that I think just works, the champ prevails....

When he wasnt trying to get away from peterson to get room to throw his combos that were mostly blocked he would lay on the ropes and get caught with clean punches.

he can not fight in the phone booth.

This was also how I saw it. The kid should learn how to do this otherwise Peterson will beat him again if ever they have a rematch.
