Who won the Khan vs. Peterson fight ?

[Rantcatrat]

Even if you give Khan the 2 points and he get's the majority decision.

Should a guy who claims to want and be a legitimate contender to Money Mayweather be having life and death battles with the likes of Lamont Peterson ?

NO

Don't get me wrong. Khan will probably have the rematch against Peterson in the spring and he may well win but all the fancy talk of Mayweather has gone up in smoke. All the fancy talk of retiring early will not happen either. In a way I think this defeat is worse than the Prescott defeat. Anyone can get KO-ed.

But when someone is there toe-toe with you for 12 rounds and still standing and pushes you all the way, then that tells me, that Khan is not as good as he or F.Roach or Golden boy promotions thinks he is.

Bottom line: Khan was exposed and Peterson fought better than expected. I agree completely that this is a worse loss than Prescott because Lamont is a known commodity. If this is Khan's performance against Lamont, Khan isn't contending with Floyd or Berto/Ortiz or any of the other higher ranked guys at 147. Can we all agree that Bradley is the top dog at 140? Fenster? Sorry, I'm a vindictive .

The fight itself was close and I had Khan winning without the point deductions. With the point deductions, I had it a draw or very tight. While it's clear too that the referee was 100% biased, no way was it a robbery. It was too close for a robbery. Khan was outmuscled in this fight and he couldn't keep Peterson off of him. Khan didn't look as strong as he has in the past although in terms of skill there is no doubt that Khan is the better pure boxer. Isn't odd that Bradley, the supposed light puncher, put Peterson down, but Khan couldn't hurt Peterson?

I had it 7-5 Khan but there was 3-4 very close rounds. I think the problem alot of people have with the decision is the ref's 2 pts deductions changed the winner.
