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.
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."
