    **** that. I'll cry if he loses.

    :lol: Jokes aside, I agree. If it would have to be anyone, it should be Peterson (Hope to fudge it's not though!)

    Sorry about that! :lol: Blew up to some epic size, for some reason.

    It's started already. Anthony, Lamont Peterson are done. Seth Mitchell is done. Amir Khan is next.

    Watch @GoldenBoyPromotions Twitter for updates.

    Laz, I do hope you're not part of the Lex&Laz account, as they're currently making a twat out of themselves in the general.

    That said, this should be a decent enough fight, but I can't see how Khan manages to lose it. Peterson is a tricky little bugger though, and it could take Khan a while to find his rhythm and range, but once he does I don't think Peterson will have anything for him. Now what would be impressive is a Khan KO as Peterson hasn't been stopped, can't see it myself though. Khan UD.

    It will be very interesting when Khan does move upto 147 as I think he's gone as fair as he can at 140 barring a fight with Bradley (which doesn't seem any closer to happening) or Rios a couple of fights down the line (by which time i fully expect Khan to be up at Welter)

    He looks very different here from the media workout today. You can't see the abs from the media pics. He looks fat in those pics :lol: Why does Alex put a layer of fat on his midsection?

    I have read Alex keeps Khan around 150 a week out from weigh in and then they cut down the protein and cut the carbs he just touches down at 140 for weigh in.

    Glass body.

    Pretty easy fight for Khan I'd say. Wide decision, about 118-110 across the board. Peterson is a solid fighter but doesn't really stand out in one particular area which could trouble Khan
