Khan v Peterson II....19th May....mandalay bay Las Vegas

[Diane]

Don't really care to see the rematch actually.

And I don't know why they are going to have the fight in Vegas, Kahn is not a draw there.

I read that they are looking to put together a fight between Humberto Soto and Lucas Matthysse on this card. Now that's a fight I'm excited to see. I think it will be a better fight than Peterson/Kahn.

Peterson shouldnt have given him the rematch. Not because he is scared to lose, but because how Khan treated others who in my opinion beat Khan and got robbed AND NEVER GOT A REMATCH!!! karma would have been perfect for this, but that rematch dodging prick will get his chance. I just hope Peterson beats his ass! by KO this time!!!

who beat khan and got robbed?

[Rantcatrat]

It's a good fight. I'm not sure I would have taken it were I Peterson. He has a win over a p4p guy in Khan. You can lament that the fight should have gone Khan's way, and I had Khan winning slightly too, but it was a close one, and no way a robbery. Peterson earned it. He could have taken it and fought Marquez, a future Hall of Famer. He may never get the chance to test himself against someone of Marquez's level again. Instead, if he loses here, doesn't his hype decrease? He still could have fought Khan after a fight with Marquez if he lost. I imagine the offer for Khan was just much more financially lucrative.

Not that i'm a fan of Peterson, but I hope Khan loses again. I look forward to it.

Looking forward to this rematch, big fight for Amir just hope he's more focused this time round and he could stop Peterson. I go for Khan by late stoppage.

Well what happen to Peterson vs JMM?

Who cares -- this is the fight that should be happening. I'm no fan of Kahn but the first fight would have been his if not for the questionable point deductions. And it was a close, competitive fight either way -- definitely worth a rematch.

JMM should fight Guerrero or, better, Rios.

Agree, glad rematch is on. Thinking if Khan keeps his cool and boxes he can get a pull it off. But I dont think that heffer Rios has done a thing to earn JMMs caliber and or name as a marque match.

Also happy to see this rematch, as for Marquez his best option now imo is Rios. Possibly
Guerrero, other than that what other options does he have?

I don't see him going back to 135 yet again. I see the total opposite with Marquez having been a live possibility for a Bradley, Peterson vs Khan etc and a Manny who he just went even up with if not beat. He'll wait for dust to settle or count on Rios bringing something to the table other than a big push and irritating laugh . Marquez is the great here. Rios is in a bit of limbo sleepwalking through last go and needs a big scalp in a bad way. Either knuckle down and make 135 which I don't think he can do or at least have a go at 140-147 ish, at least officially anyway.

No need to go back to 135 for those fights. Rios can't legitimately make that weight anymore and Guerrero clearly has no attachment to it either, given his calling out of Floyd and then Ortiz at 147.

And +1 on Rios's laugh. You have to admit it would be fun to watch him get hit with flush counter after flush counter by JMM.

Khan should win it this time and probably the reason why he has paid a kings ransom to secure the rematch.

[Manos de Piedra]

It will be a close fight again but I lean slightly towards Khan to take it 115-113. Peterson will make a real fight of it though and I wouldn't be surprised if he won.

[Slim the BoxingManiac]

I like how Peterson handled the decision. He didn't take any of Khan's lowly deals and planned out other options as well.

Truth of the matter is, when Khan lost the decision, he didn't spend any time considering how he could have fought differently in that ring. He whined like a woman. Peterson is smart enough to plan this one out.

Khan isn't going to learn again until he gets beaten severely like he did against Prescott. His ego is too big for his own good.

Just to note, I read that he has been working a lot on fighting on the inside and getting out of the inside if he is bad position while there.

So Khan what excuses when you lose the rematch?


Job Biscuit (mandalay bay Las Vegas)!!!!

eh eh!!!

I wonder why Khan was quick to ask for a rematch with Peterson and not as quick to ask for one vs Prescott.

[roberto duran legend]

Hope its another cracker, not to bothered who wins, just want a good fight , but you got to fancy Khan this time .
