    Okay enough BS arguing, lol. Put let's cast the votes and see what the forum thought cause arguing it out doesn't change people's mind.

    I personally thought the fans won!

    This is how real fights are suppose to look like. This is why I hate hype, rankings, fanboys, promoters, money, popularity, and all the blatant excuses for robbing and ducking. When the top competition fights each other, hype is out the window and the fights are much more competitive than anticipated. Before tonight Kahn was suppose to white wash Peterson, back when Pacquiao was suppose to beat Marquez, he was suppose to crush him, and we will hopefully see the same with Mayweather once he takes on someone his competition level.

    Anyhow I thought Kahn won in a close fight, but I can see the case for Peterson. This fight deserves a rematch and possibly a thrilogy if Kahn wins the rematch. In some ways I think it was good that Peterson won, cause Kahn sure as heck wasn't gonna give Peterson a rematch. Great great fight and the ut most respect to both fighters for laying it on the line.

    So who do you think won?

    Good post.

    As a judge, you have to go with what the ref rules. So 113-112 petersen is the correct score.

    But imo the deductions were harsh but then so was the kd

    I'll vote draw, simply because I can say it going any which way, fairly, and rationally. Extremely well-matched fight.

    I had it even after 10...and then Peterson took the last 2 rounds, throw in the deduction and Peterson wins it by 3 for me.

    Scored it a draw watching it live. I'd be curious to see what score I'd come up with on a second viewing. And thankfully for everybody who wishes to score it again, it was a damn good fight.

    No complaints. Khan lost fair and square there's nothing to debate for me

    Peterson's criminal referee won the fight for him.................without Peterson's criminal referee he would have lost. The Puerto Rican judge had it correct. Even Ledermann had Khan winning.................Max said is was home cooking and it was. Peterson's fans do not want him to fight a rematch because they are afraid, as well they should be..............Khan will knock Peterson out in a rematch...........watch and see................

    Kahn won the fight, (this is not really in question IMO) but lost the respect of most fans, I think. He needed to look better than he did.

    Peterson, clear UD for me.


    The real **** up here which seems to be getting overlooked is Vasquez (I'm sure) scored it 115-110 to Khan, even after the deductions.

    Goldenboys sitter?
