Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: I'm Aiming To Stop Lamont Peterson This Time!

Same thing he said last time around. If Con decides to sit and trade instead of ride his unicycle all fight, he's gonna be the one who gets KO'd. His best bet is to utilize the ring, use the jab, and rack up a points win. I'm sure Peterson has been working on better cutting off the ring, so this one is gonna be real interesting. That being said, I got Peterson by TKO.

Khan proved in the Maidana fight that when he gets hit hard, he starts to fight going backwards. When you fight backwards if you don't slide to the left or right but instead go straight back, you get hit with clean shots that your body isn't prepared to accept. In the Peterson fight, Peterson saw early that Khan was faster and decided to take a few shots but land heavy on the body. This is what gave Khan the opportunity to push off so many times. Every opportunity that he pushed off, he could have landed punches and won the fight. This shows the mentality of Khan. Not to mention, Peterson landed some really good short over hand rights in the close quarters while Khan was trying one of his escape maneuvers. I don't see Khan reinventing himself and his only real chance is to KO Peterson early...very early. Peterson has proved that he can get hurt early but his determination usually still forces a good fight in his opponent. If Peterson can minimize the punishment while pressing he can get a late knock down or KO versus Khan. The first big body punch will play a huge psychological effect on Khan. We'll see!

Unpredictable fight

I have a feeling Khan will box and this is just part of his strategy. Khan has the abilty to outbox Peterson, he blew the first fight by getting into the trenches with Him. But he might have Peterson thinking now he is going to do that again.

Same old **** in these threads.

"Stop talkin Khan and focus on yo fight!!"

I suppose he should just stay silent when the journalists ask him questions....

Or maybe he should not write checks his azz can't cash..I seem to remember him saying he would stop Peterson in their first fight,how that turn out??Oh I remember with Khan looking like a dumbazz..

Interesting to see how Khan approaches this fight, I'm sure they thought Lamont was going to be a walk over initially. I don’t see a KO, but there is a good chance of a couple of KDs especially early on.

I was a Kahn fan but after his non stop whining and bellyaching i have lost all respect for him.
Nice way to kill you fan base Amir...you and Lindsay Lohan should get together.

I remember Tim Bradley telling Khan to stop running.

Khan isn't that good at adapting. He is fast and rangy, if you stand there and try to outbox him you will eat a ton of 1-2's. Khan fades as well...he looks like he is in great shape but he tires after about 6 rounds.

If Peterson uses head movement and angles, he can get inside on Khan early and beat the body from round 1. Khan isn't good at all on the inside because he can't use his reach or find his rhythm.

I say Peterson becomes effective early on and Khan barely survives...this may be the beginning of the end for Khan.
