Exactly. If you read between the lines Peterson ALWAYS wanted the rematch but his manager wanted the best deal for him. By holding out just like he held out to become mandatory in the first fight he more than doubled the original Team Khan offers. The great wise Khan fans said he was a fool when he refused the first offer because he would not get any more money anywhere else. Well guess what you super astute Khunts he got double.
The mystery man farce and Team Khan circus denied Peterson the glory of his world title win.Despite winning it was made to look like he was lucky to get a gift decision which was not the case. Peterson has something to prove in this fight and I expect him to fight like a challenger because he feels he needs to prove the first fight was not a fluke. It should be a good fight with a hell of a lot at stake for Khan.Peterson is a lot smarter on his feet than Khan and I see him being able to adjust to Khan more than the other way round. The ref is going to be a big factor in this fight. If Cortez is the ref or one that breaks up the infighting the odds favor Khan but if we get a Cooper type ref who allows fighting on the inside the odds move in Petersons favor. It is a 50 50 fight.Comment

Everyone is saying he did the right thing, but this move could've cost him millions in the long run.
It just shows me he's not confident he cant beat Marquez because he would've made a career payday against Manny in the winter if he beats Marquez.
Sometimes in life you give up a little in the short run to gain more in the future.
What's going to happen if he loses to Khan? A 3rd fight? His stock would drop a lot with a loss to Khan especially after a close first fight.Comment
