    I don't think they could beat Floyd if they both got to fight him at the same time.

    Well all that stuff about Khan beating Floyd and Pacman should be laid to rest now forever.

    Khan needs to stop being so cocky, he can beat Peterson if they fight again. He just got caught up in petersons pressure and it cost him the fight. With the points deductions khan had too much to do, he made the fighter harder for himself by trying to engage too much. He's shown he could take his punches, but he took far too many. No doubt Khan can take a dig now, but proving that point cost him rounds. Raising his arms too much was disrespectful especially in petersons hometown and it's not going to get him any brownie points in Washington.

    It was a good fight though, well done peterson. I'd welcome a rematch.

    Brownie points in DC earn you a cookie, it's about as low the totem pole of US fights as you can get and still get televised (save Detroit). A new location, Smoger as ref and we settle it. Both fighters have areas they can improve specifically catered to each others styles.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Peterson had most of his success when Khan let himself be pinned on the ropes and pounded on. I'm surprised Khan didn't get dropped by one of those big shots to the head and body.

    I wasn't totally surprised at tonight's outcome, it was somewhat predictable, as was the "controversy."

    Again I hesitate to completely comment on this fight because of the choppy nature of my stream

    but...

    I want this ref in Wlad's next fight.

    There's quite a few fighters I think it would be good to have this ref in.

    Peterson's punches look harder than they are. I've watched 15 or so of his fights and he throws powershot after powershot and a lot of them are "wow" shots, they look vicious, I guess because of his accuracy, but everyone seems to take them relatively in stride. Unless they just get broken down over a lot of rounds and a lot of shots.

    I guess its easy for me to say his punches aren't as hard as they look

    Regardless, he's not a one shot guy and never has been, even against lesser opposition.

    But Wlad would NEVER go and fight an opposition fighter in their own back yard.

    Why? Because he's not stupid! Khan should have dictated he had the fight where he wanted.

    Khan to win the rematch comfortably.

    Not really, what's "suspicious" about it?
