    I had Khan winning 113-112 but you can easily argue for Peterson,Khan can have no complaints really.
    He's not comfortable when durable fighters who he can't blast put constant pressure on him.

    No robbery, there was 3 close rounds(4th, 9th, and 11th), the rest were pretty clear. I gave Khan 2 out of 3 of those close rounds(4th and 9th), if you give 2 out of 3 to Peterson then he wins 113-112. My card was 114-111 Khan.

    I moved my head more watching the fight than Khan did fighting. Roach is a fraud and should be ashamed of himself taking these young guys money and training them to be one-dimensional offensive fighters(Pac, Khan, Martisoyan). That being said, Khan won rounds 1-3, 6, and 9-12.

    113-112 Khan, bad ref, hometown decision, Khan was average, peterson was great so was the fight, like hopkins said if you fight in your opponents hometown you lose 2 points before you start

    yeah i can really imagine someone like andre ward getting points deducted for that LOL, it was a close fight and at the end of the day it was the ref who decided it but khan only has himself to blame, this is america after all and everyone knows the judges and officials are horrible a lot of the time, just sooooo blinkered and biased

    Was it **** a robbery, it was a close fight anyway and Khan got two points deducted. If Peterson was a slightly bigger puncher Khan would have probably been stopped anyway, his tactics were absolutely awful and he cant seem to deal with pressure very well at all.

    Yeah thats fair enough but was the ref in the wrong?
    I dont think so if Khan hadnt kept fouling he would of won these are rules and the ref warned him enough, so he only has himself to blame..

    Fair result. Khan has great speed, but 70% was on the gloves. I watched it after the event with the khan and Roach quotes in mind. Ref gave plenty of warnings and Peterson showed stones and a good brain to go through the game plans.

    :lol: How can Khan win that fight when Peterson won his fair share of the rounds and Khan got the two points deducted, your just playing yourself mate, the right man won on my card and im English and proud.
    Khan at the end of the fight let himself down badly he thinks he's choclote if he was he would eat himself, and to think he wants to fight mayweather.. :rofl

    "with all that big willy talk, your playing yourself".
