No, Cotto is the biggest non-Pac money earner for Floyd. Not that I'm interested in that fight at all.

Khan was at least one round up IMO and with the points deductions , Peterson deserved the nod. It was a great fight and no doubt Khan Lost it for himself by the points deductions. He needs to box a lot more and not get drawn in too much with Peterson. Peterson did well when he was aggressive, but Khan got caught up in it trying to prove he could take Petersons punches...which he did prove. He took far too much leather and I think Khan is better than that. He got drawn in and he showed when he was on the outside he was in command of the fight.

I think a rematch because of the points deductions is fair. Khan needs to be more disciplined but no doubt if he just boxes clever like he can do he would beat Peterson. It would be a good fight the rematch but Khan needs to just not be cocky and box a hard 12 rounds and he will beat Peterson. I would love the rematch to be in Vegas, I hope it goes through soon.

The truth is Peterson pulled of "a Hatton". He bullied Khan, he rammed him, he led with the shoulder and got inside.

The ref tried to let the fight flow which suits the bully fighter. It was man vs boy at times. If Hatton had done it, which he did, then I'd have been cheering when he won. I did when he knocked Tszyu about.

I still think Khan scored more scoring punches and won more rounds all told though.

I'm not complaining, hardly a massive Khan fan. But I do think Khan keeps a clean sheet in the rematch.

I thought it was a great fight. It could have gone either way.

It's an absolute CERT rematch but it wont be anywhere near Washington.

How ironic that Peterson refused to go to England incase he got robbed. (not that I think Khan was robbed, just a tight decision where point deductions were a major factor)
