Peterson's team were in his corner telling rooting him on like it was the fight of his life, telling him stories about that time on the block. Amir's teams wasnt doing much of anything(bout judges/referee) and he was giving a pretty apathetic display in comparison to his other matches. Also to be noted Lamont put on an extra 15 pounds before the battle. Considering Roach is Khans trainer and Pacquio is his sparing partner i really would not be surprised if Khan won the rematch in vegas.

I agree with you he doesnt know how to fight close range. which i already knoew from before.

@stafus khan didnt have to take the fight

Khan will learn from this defeat and, no doubt, go on to be pound for pound king.

Khan was running in that fight and he wants to talk trash to mayweather, pacquiao, or tim bradley. He would get eaten alive by those guys.

Me: Ok have it your way. Ur on your own.. *walks away, leaving u alone to console a deposed and but-hurt Amir Khan*

Khan: ..*sobbing alone in dressing room* WHY FREDDIE?! *Freddie left already*..I COULDA BEEN A CONTENDER!! *uncontrollable sobbing, fetal position rocking back and forth* *A tear stained copy of the compu-box numbers lies semi crumpled on the floor.*

*ibhof2 slinks away silently, then steps outside to take a long drag on a cigarette*

"Fuckin Peterson.."

Sry couldn't resist lol

Khan was telling the truth in the postfight interview.even with the 2 point deductions, I had Khan ahead by 3 points. sorry, but there is no way Peterson won this fight

just finished watchin, I'am a HUGE fan of the peterson bros but lamont lost the fight. Khan won by a point or shoulda been a draw at worst. Taking those 2 points without a strong stern warning from the ref was fucked up.
