Amir Khan vs. Lamont Peterson - Saturday - fight/chat thread

[Gandalf]

I'm rooting for Peterson too, but I'm not sure he is good enough. Though I do think some are underestimating him. The Brits suggesting that Khan blow him away to set up a Pac or Mayweather fight is a bit much. Peterson is much better than just being blown away.

Lets go Peterson. I didn't know this fight was in DC. I could have went to it.

Mitchell looked pretty damn good knocking out Ibragimov (who's never been stopped)

Who's the crowd booing?

Yep, good performance. Nice to see a non-obese US HW.

Yes, it's rather rare, they're either fat or out of shape.

Or playing football or basketball.

I'm glad we didn't have to wait another hour to watch the main, I have a short shelf life.

stream anyone,pleeeeeeeas!!!

[killersheep]

Wow enthusiastic touch em up from the ref.

[CFH]

I always appreciate it when an inept ref demonstrates his incompetence in the first round. It lets me know what's to come.

Khan needs to stop doing that stupid raising his hands shit.

[Sleepwalker]

Peterson was way off-balanced in the the first round

[Mars_ax]

Peterson knocked down in the 1st round.. Khan 10-8.

[Gandalf]

Peterson is silly looking for the home run and getting tagged. Needs to take a round or two to adjust to Khan first. Sloppy.

[Tam Seddon]

Great first round !

first round observations:

Khan is very quick. Wow, replay shows it really wasn't a knockdown.
Ref is clueless.

The raising hands shit when he gets hit (especially to the body) is weird. He did that shit against McCloskey.

stream anyone,pleeeeeeeas!!!

check your pm's. And I would check it fast, judging by how this fight is going.

[Mars_ax]

Come on Lamont, put some hurt on him..

[Mars_ax]

Better 2nd round for Lamont...he seems to be back in the fight.
