    Just wondering as I know he was looking for the big pay day with Manny but thats gone now. He doesnt seem interested in Khan again. What are his options and who do you think he will fight, heard Marquez would fight him for another pop at manny

    Marquez, probably. After promising Khan the rematch he should have followed through though.

    man up and fight Khan

    WBA will strip him of belt, he probably will fight JMM defending his IBF.

    Im sick of these boxers, mainly black americans ducking.

    Khan gave Peterson a shot at the WBA and IBF in his home town, he got a gift on the cards thanks to the ref and 'hatman', he promised Khan a rematch and now wants no part of it

    boxers should box!!!!!!! not duck

    If he's got the JMM fight as an option, can you really blame him for bypassing Khan for the time being? Especially if that JMM fight could lead to a Pacquiao clash in November?

    Lamont's doing the right thing by taking his time and weighing up his options.

    Peterson will lose a hell of a lot of respect if he doesn't rematch Khan!

    Kon wouldn't rematch anyone if it didn't suit Kon.
    Lamont shouldn't rematch him either just to suit Kon.

    I would have preferred a Khan rematch than a Marquez bout, but it's a still a really good fight

    i predict

    Peterson vs JMM
    Khan vs Ortiz @147

    and considering

    Floyd vs Cotto and
    Manny vs Bradley

    it a pretty good spring/summer of boxing at 140-147
