Should Khan have fought like he did in the 9th against peterson the whole fight?

    Looking back at the fight, the best Khan round was probably round 9. He caught Peterson with good shots, and even put some power into his punches.

    Should he have fought the whole fight, like he did in the 9th round?

    No because then Peterson would have adapted to that and Khan would have been in trouble.
    The way to beat Peterson is to change it up every couple of rounds

    i dont think he had that the stamina even in that round he took a break and laid on the ropes which is a fine tactic if you defend against the uppercut which khan does not but when he sits down on his punches he has nice technique but most the time he slaps with his flurries to get more speed on them i think khan needs to go back to fighting the way he did against kotelnik utilizing more upper body movement into his defence because he has all the tools required
