Has Khan gained your respect?

[ATG Fighter]

While the PEDs would have definitely helped the physical side of Peterson and therefore the pressurizing style he fought with, that is not the only reason Khan lost/was a close fight. Lamont being on drugs won't change the fact that Khan is a very flawed fighter (can't take pressure and fight on the inside).

I am a fan of Khan in the ring and I thought he won the first fight. But I won't get carried away and say that the performance was impressive just because Peterson was on drugs. That fight exposed Khan's flaws and wasn't all that impressive imo in the context of whether Khan is the best fighter at 140 and a top P4P fighter.

a cheats a cheats a cheat. It doesn't matter if Khan's a flawed fighter, he deserves back what is rightfully his, his belts. The first fight should be declared a no contest and Lamont should serve a ban from boxing for a minimum of 2 years.

On that aspect, yes khan got balls. But fighting the way he did against peterson is no balls in my book.

I am sorry Bush but that is how I see it.

Believe me it's ok. Like I said I'm not a fan of Khan's. But I do think he has a pair. Sometimes fighters just get into a situation where they fall apart in the ring, (like Khan does & will continue to do), after 4 rounds. But He did go to Lamonts backyard to fight & the ref did screw him over something fierce. I must admit I'd be 1 pissed of mofo if that $h!t happened to me.

Just like Cotto, under pressure he falls apart. But he fights anyone. To me that's heart. Some fighters would not even fight a man. Khan fights a man in his backyard & gets screwed for his trouble.

maybe lamont was hitting that hard that khan had no choice

Yes everyone should respect khan as he has trained with the full intention with getting his titles back, and the powers that be leave it up to fight night to reveal peterson was on PEDS, how unfair is that? Peterson was like a man possesed with his peds coming back from bombs that he did khan was willing to fight him again.

Peterson sounded confident he could beat Khan again, as he knew he had his special PEDs in his locker room and he knew he could count on that to raise his performance.

If khan didn't ***** and moan there would be no rematch. And Peterson would have been fighting other opponents without getting exposed as a cheat

People have been hard on Amir over his *****ing, but I don't mind if it's justified. And I think it was, and always have.

I got the corner shop owner winning the fight, even with the deductions. Then again, I am a bias Brit, of course.
