    Just as long as he fights the winner of Bradley/Alexander next then it's all good. Khan's alright, get the feeling he genuinely wants to fight the best. He's got a lot of heart, I used to think he's a **** and a poser but after Maidana maybe not so much. He is still a bit ****y though.

    To be fair to Khan, Peterson is a decent opponent. Peterson is easily top ten and a pretty slick fighter. It's rather more than a stay busy fight in my opinion although obviously Khan should win.

    I'm predicting Khan will hammer him in 6. I'll be surpised if this is competitive. If Ortiz hadn't lost the plot when he took a punch , he would have done the same.

    What a surprise! Meh...what can I say. Not inspiring but an acceptable opponent. I'll watch but I don't think the blood will be pumping in anticipation to say the least. Hopefully some decent Brits make it on to the undercard.

    I think I'll be going, reckon it'll be a decent test for Khan. Peterson is a decent opponent for Amir, off the back of the Maidana fight. Peterson also coming off a draw with Ortiz which he did well to grind out after being down in the 3rd round and getting out boxed early on in the fight.

    Peterson clearly lost the Ortiz fight.

    Undercard should be full of Brits, probably won't be though.

    Ortiz will probably be on it.
