    Even if PEDerson is allowed to fight I wouldn't blame Khan for pulling out. Just suprised they didn't do it straight away.
    That would look very bad on Khan if he pulled out. Like it or not, if doctors and the commission agree that Peterson is cleared to fight, you have to accept it. They won't clear him for no reason. If he's cleared, he has to be looked as clean and you have to hold the prior information as garbage.

      Yupp it puts khan in a really awkward situation. What do you reckon Rome is he getting the licence? I don't believe he is I'm 99% certain he isn't

        That's the fight I agree with it's the best in short notice

          Khan would be sued for pulling out if the commission gives him a license. He better be ready to fight because the fight has never been canceled and you only heard one side of it. People jumped the gun. He may of failed a test but no one cared to ask why he failed or wait till more information.

              Khan is more likely to be facing Floyd mayweather than LP next. One warm up fight and then FLoyd.

                It's tough,HBO and the promoters have spent a lot of money on this fight..I have a feeling it's going to come off..Khan is in a win/win right now,and honestly Peterson is going to have the all the pressure on him..

                If Khan loses,he is a sympathetic figure in this situation,and will move on like the L never even happen..If he wins(omg)forget about how much his fans will be blowing smoke up his azz..He will be a fighter who beat a juicing cheat(their pretty much saying this already)..I think Khan will go threw with this fight,like I said he is in a win/win tbh,and to much money has went into it..

                But if the fight does not come off,Khan can not be blamed or faulted..But you know how business is,I would not be surprised if he is sued behind backing out(as long as Peterson is licensed)...

                  I think its safe to assume the LPED fight is off. I don't think serious discussions like these would be taking place if they were confident that May 19 goes on as planned.

                    I don't know about that. Khan is a pretty emotional guy and often acts out of a whim. I could see Khan seeing the results and just assuming the fight is off. He's in a tough situation but he should have every intention of fighting until the fight is officially canceled.

                      I agree,and I think he should keep that killer instinct,not look for excuse why he should lose...But look to beat LP azz for cheating or trying to cheat...
