    Yes, I wanred a draw option in the poll. But just opted for khan. On neutral ground and an experianced referee this will be close fight, but would favour khan. Although in a rematch I think Peterson starts pressure and in fighting from opening bell.

    Although guys who specialize in pressure nad big hitting. Like maidana, matthyse and rios should be favoured against khan. Especially if Cortez is not the referee.

    This fight was a close and compeitive scrap where I thought Khan won. But it was no way a robbery. It was like the PAC vs JMM fight. I thought JMM won but PAC got away with a close "W". Great fight and I thought both men should be applauded. The ref was a smuck. He was not the right man for the job and was OVER officiating.

    I scored it a draw, Amir landed more but the affective work came from Peterson who i think may edge it if I watch it again

    I still scored it khan by 1 even with the deductions

    but, peterson won, the judges have spoken, that's boxing, accept it

    i voted peterson because he was the "actual" winner

    I thought Peterson did enough to win - WITH the point deductions. But the point deductions were bull****.

    with or without the ref, Peterson won fair & square! ...& im a big khan supporter!


    Peterson's punches were more telling! harder! concise,
    Khan was just pitter patter and RUN RUN RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!

    Really, there should be even more options.

    There should be Peterson/Khan/draw as options for how you scored it WITH all the Joe Cooper influence.

    Then there should be Peterson/Khan/draw as options for how you scored it "naked", dismissing the knockdown ruling and both deductions.

    I had either 113-112 Peterson or a 114-114 draw, depending.

    Ib how you got the potential rematch?

    I think Khan takes it easy, i know he ain't **** on the inside but he will box with soo much more discipline, Lamont won't be able to get to the inside half as much IMO.

    Nah, I meant location. :good

    Outside of a "revenge decision" in the UK, I actually don't see Khan winning.

    Roach will give him a game plan, sure enough - but in all probability Khan has already changed his stripes about as much as he's apt to. WYSIWYG. Peterson on the other hand has gotten that first little taste of top-level success and the kid who grew up destitute is probably going to be even hungrier to keep what's his from getting jacked now that he's finally got his hands on something. Khan to me seems the type to get mad more than get even. That is to say, he'll stew and whine over having been treated unfairly but won't channel his anger into extra motivation.

    I just see Lamont as the mentally tougher and more determined of the two, and all things being equal (and even accepting that Barry Hunter will probably not be able to tweak too much more in his longtime pupil than Roach will be able to tweak in Amir) I think Peterson does it again - this time with less controversy or even none at all.
