Should be a competitive fight, Khan figures to win since Peterson hasn't been able to sucessfully move up to the next level. But I doubt that Khan will stop him, if he does get a KO, i'd be impressed, especially since it would be on Lamont's home turf. If Khan and Roach are underestimating Peterson, they could be in for a big surprise, Peterson ain't no pushover, the dude can fight, and this is a golden opportunity for him. Keep in mind too, that Lamont does have some power and Amir's chin is still questionable.
Plus, I want another look at Cotto vs Margo II in HD on my big screen, that comes on before the main event.
I wish we were getting the Cotto - Margarito replay over here. Anything that saves me from having to watch Ibragimov on the undercard.
Khan should win, but i think as always, he'll have some scary moments. He still does a lot of things wrong technically and his defence isn't great. Peterson is a better fighter than he showed against Bradley so he should make it interesting for the first 4 or 5 rounds. He might even be land a few clean shots which could buzz Khan. Khan should take over and win on points. A stoppage would be impressive but unlikely. Khan UD for me, but it should be competitive.
