Lamont Peterson: "Khan's A Mover And He's Pretty Fast I Plan On Slowing Him Down

[deejd]

It's a good fight, but Khan should win pretty easily.

We saw how easily Ortiz handled Peterson until he gassed. Khan won't gas, and Khan will be bigger than Peterson as well.

Khans speed will be too much.

Props to Khan for being the only 140 pounder who is making interesting fights. Bradley the monkey is fighting 40 year old Casamayor? Good on Khan. I think he beats Peterson without too much trouble.

Bradley's resume > Khan's resume

I guess you conveniently forgot about that epic war Khan had with Barrera... or the awesome gone in 54 seconds showing against Prescott.

[ts33]

I just also want to say that Khan and his handlers trying to put that B.S.in the contract was the main reason this fight been did not happen..Not because Peterson did not want thefight or the money offered..

It was a reason, but it wasn't the main reason. How's he gonna turn down 300K for a fight which is much more than he's ever made?

Yeah, i understand that they offered the same for a rematch, but even so thats 600K for 2 fights AND the chance for a world title, which you seem to value greatly.

But as you say, boxing is a business and now that Peterson is in a better position (mandatory) he can get a better deal and now has more experience going into the fight

Khan still walks all over this guy. The question is does he do a better job than the one who's still runnin' out there...

If Khan beats Peterson, and Bradley goes ahead and fights Casa, would you then say Khan has the better resume?

Same question goes to romebyko...

I definitely would

[Jaso]

Khans resume was better than Bradleys when he beat Judah IMO.

Khans resume was better than Bradleys when he beat Judah IMO.

Yeah, i think so too. He just beat Judah so easily people don't rank his performance as well as they should

I don't see how anyone could argue it if Khan beats Peterson though, because Bradleys fighting casamayor in the meantime

I think it will be even,based onthe fact Bradley would have still fought more Champs and highly ranked fighters...Not to mention Khans been KOd by a D level fighter...But you can make an argument for either guy imo...

Compare top opponents

Peterson, Judah, Maidana, Kotelnik, Malignaggi, McCloskey
vs
Peterson, Alexander, Holt, Witter, Abregu, Cherry

Peterson = Peterson

I don't see how you could argue that Alexander, Holt, Witter, Abregu and Cherry are better than Judah, Maidana, Kotelnik, McCloskey and Malignaggi, i really don't. if you believe they are better or even equal, try and convince me rome, but i don't see it...

How much credit do you really think Khan should get for beating that version of Judah? It was a respectable win no doubt but that was not a career belt notching win. That was a win over a veteran who has a name and his best days had been gone. I am for sure not saying Judah was shot because he wasn't but that isn't a great win. It was decent win nothing more nothing less.

Very good interview

I never said it was a great win, but IMO it should be ranked almost as highly as Bradley's win over Alexander. Alexander was never any good, people just got caught up in him KOing Urango and him being 'young and hungry'. I don't think he beat Kotelnik and Matthyse, in all reality you could argue he's lost three fights in a row.

Judah's win over Matthyse was also suspect, but he also KOed Mabuza and had a world title too, so i don't see why Alexander is ranked much higher than Judah?
