    What do you think? :think

    I'm personally, not very sure. Bradley couldn't stop him, nor could Ortiz. You can say Bradley isn't a big puncher but he did hit him with a lot of punches, especially to the body and Ortiz was able to knock him down twice but Lamont came back to win the rest of the rounds.

    I think Khan will get a wide UD here.

    Late rounds RSF or corner retirement. Ortiz should have stopped him as well TBH.

    Why do you always put tags on your threads, Laz?

    Peterson is pretty good, for sure. He never gives up. His Stamina is good. His output is good.

    He was trying to get Bradley out of here till the last second. Same with Ortiz.

    He has a good inside game also, but I don't think Khan would allow him to get inside.

    Peterson is very solid, as is a good fighter for a 'Homecoming fight'.

    i put possibly. I actually think Khan will stop him in 3 explosively one sided rounds. Think Peterson will be like a dear in headlights like Salita but has a bit more about him to stick it out. He will not be able to cope with the occasion and the British crowd. To used to fighting on empty casinos.

    I think Peterson is a good fighter and would have been a good opponent for his US debut or a regular Sky show. He just isn't a PPV opponent.

    Yes I mean he has only faced Bradley the number one in the division and on a big HBO bill v Ortiz, deffo the occasion will get to him. :blood

    He could.

    But a Khan points win is probable in this one.

    So so nieve

    Were 20,000 in the arena?
    Were 20,000 booing him and cheering the other guy
    Was he in a different country?
    Was he away from home for 2 weeks?
    Would the press attention for those fights even be close to a Khan PPV?

    I wouldn't be supirsed is Lamont Peterson has even left the USA before.
