    2 days ago he said: “It was a grave mistake going to Washington, giving Peterson home advantage. Golden Boy has turned this into a very tough assignment for Khan.” “Taking it to Washington has evened up the fight. A lot of people want to see Peterson win, because he has fought his way off the streets.”

    “In Las Vegas, this would have been a 60-40 fight in Khan’s favour; by taking it to Washington, where Peterson is loved, where his trainer Barry Hunter is very respected and venerated, it has turned it into a 50-50 fight.”

    love him or hate him, the bobfather knows.

    Maybe they were trying to make two stars on purpose? Maybe even a trilogy?

    Congrats to Lamont on his win. Could have gone both ways.

    Is Lamont promoted by top rank?

    The right man won in a fight. Unlike in Top Rank where they protect Bob's investment.

    These 2 are evenly matched and could give 3 great fights in a trilogy but money-wise these 2 are not yet big enough names to generate tremendous money in a trilogy.

    What happen if Khan losses again in the rematch? It would be a disaster.

    Lol at this BobTard.


    if khan was fighting for Top Rank he'd be being fed bums from Arums stable of bums like Cotto and Margacheato were.


    Atleast we are seeing Khan against top competition.

    Arum should know, that's why Pac is never in danger in any fight.

    X2!

    Khan will still be fighting some 130lbs at 140lbs or some one not even ranked in the top 20 140lbs.

    To me the real point is this. Why do the fight in DC? B-Hop even said it is like giving away two points when you fight in the other guys town.
