Yes it was close and deductions aside Khan would still have his titles.

But we all saw another deduction coming and like Peterson I thought it would be for the head holding. I had Khan one up going into last.

Khan will come back from this and he hasn't lost too much cred from it imo - but his hit and run style has again showed a weakness against the seasoned fighters. If Petersen had a bigger punch he would have finished Khan in the mid rounds.


Thats life and Khan should prevail in a rematch - Khan has a stoppage win over barrera on his resume ffs ! it happens !
