I think that Amir Khan should rematch Peterson. The reason I say that is Khan would probably get knocked out by Danny Garcia if he fights him next. I had Amir Khan winning the Peterson fight by 2 rounds, plus Peterson is not that hard of a puncher compared to Garcia. As long as Bradley does not fight Peterson, Khan should fight him.
PEDerson is finished... Still draining the testosterone out of his system... might have to move up to 147. Peterson without drugs, ref, hatman & hometown + Khan using his jab and better ring movement = Khan win and Peterson with no eyes This content is protected
This makes the most sense. Dont know why Khans team didnt even mention it. Peterson is still the IBF champ. Khan can become world champ again and avenge his loss in a much safer fight where he can exhibit his improvements.. then he can fight garcia in another big unification fight..
A Peterson rematch makes the most sense. Khan looked good last night, but he still made a few glaring mistakes, and Peterson doesn't bang hard enough to make Khan pay big for any slip ups, though he's still live enough to keep him on his toes. He should have at least 2 more training camps with Virgil before stepping in with Garcia again.
They tried to make Khan vs Peterson 2 before the Garcia fight but fight was cancelled based on Peterson failing a drug test. One thing though Khan was still getting caught with that left hook in exchanges to much for my liking to fight Garcia next.
I doubt this fight happens. Khan has been being adamant about his "life being at risk" if he stepped in the ring with him again (as per the PEDs).
Also, what surprised me last night was Khan actually slipping shots and throwing on the inside, if he can do the same against an inside fighter the caliber of Lamont Peterson, we know he's made some solid improvements.
