There you go Lamont.

this is my honest opinion of the fight. if it wasn't for the two points taken away, khan would have won sd, very close but khan would have won.

That's true. One judge had him up 115-111 (the 114 was an error evidently) with the two point deductions.... really? That's absurd, even the most casual of casual and softcore Khan fans would admit that it was closer than that.
The point deductions were brought on by Khan, not by the ref. Khan should be lucky he took points off for pushing, which I thought was kind of weird compared to what else he was doing.

the scores were 115-110, 112-113 & 112-113.
without any deductions at all khan would have had 1 point extra advantage on the above cards bringing them to 117-111, 114-114 & 114-114 which constitutes a majority draw.
if they deducted 1 pt from peterson for a kd but no points from khan the cards would have been 117-110, 114-113, 114-113, close unanimous decision win for khan.
any way you look at this it's obvious khan didn't do enough to win, and in best case for khan, the fight was a draw. he only could have won in an unfair scenario where peterson would be punished, and khan got a pass for his many fouls (intentional headbutts, pushing and hitting on break). i am still a khans fan, but he needs to get back to the drawing board and make some changes. i'd start with the trainer.

fluke win. Khan will win the rematch.

There is nothing fluke about Khan running from those hellacious body shots. You dont know **** about boxing.

Maidana vs Peterson
or
Bam Bam vs Peterson


Would make a good scrap.

You know what's funny... people still say he wasn't running... he was using superior ring generalship to move about the ring. When your opponent literally has to sprint to get to you after you move away, unless you're freaking goku and can walk at the speed of light, then you're running.

About time he told them to STFU!!!! Khan was horrible in that fight PERIOD!

[LeadUppercut]

this is my honest opinion of the fight. if it wasn't for the two points taken away, khan would have won sd, very close but khan would have won. but at the same time there were rounds given to khan tht should have went to peterson. tht being said u know who they wanted to win from the start. but god dont like ugly n khan was too ****y thinking he can go to lamonts backyard with mayweather on his mind, underminding tht dog in peterson, steadly pushing and holding, ignoring all warnings, laying on the ropes eating right hands n uppercuts, then pretending he is manny (throwing his hands up), n think he was a robbed??? khan beat himself in this fight

And then add in the knockdown ?

A rematch is required imho, but I'm not sure if one should be mandated.

Didn't Peterson agree to rematch Khan?

I'm sure I can remember reading that he had no problem with a rematch.

[LeadUppercut]

Funny that Khan was talking about Mayweather, but now he has to solve the Peterson "puzzle". Styles makes fights, but Bradley is still the man at 140. I wouldn't mind a rematch. Khan should have the game to beat Peterson, I wanna see if he can take it to another level, because he will need to for Bradley at 140, let alone Mayweather at 147.

[Cubanborn87]

**** you haters, if Khan presses for the rematch he is "desprate" ..if he doesn't give a **** about the rematch and fight another contender or champion he is "ducking".. Some of you need to grow atleast half a brain.

you need to grow a brain and read what i wrote all over again, i am talking about getting the decision appealed
