According to The Ring

good for them.sanity prevailed and this is a good matchup.one of the best that can be made in that division.

Glad Arum didn't get his way

Thank god. Finally boxing fans are thrown a bone. Now we have a meaningful fight to discuss.

OK I think this go around Khan will learn from his mistakes in their first fight. I really believe Khan is a special fighter and I think he hurts Peterson in a great fight that Khan wins comfortable on the cards. Khan's footwork needs to be much better in order to take advantage of his speed if he wants to beat Peterson convincingly.

...good points.

One thing we are all forgetting is that it wasn't until around Round 4 that Peterson figured out his initial game plan wasn't working. That's when he switched to the "stalker" mode and just put on tons of pressure. In the rematch, I'm sure Peterson will do that strategy from the opening bell.

I think the 2nd fight is going to be just as close as the first.

I think Roach and his team will work non stop on Khan moving and giving Peterson angles. If his footwork isnt better you will be right it will be a long grueling fight.

What sucks is that this won't be for The Ring/linear belt because of Bitch Bradley

Maybe since Bradley fighting Pac at Welter, Bradly will move off the list. I know Slick will btich about it. But tired of this punk holding up the division. He should have fought Khan but bitched out. So fuck him

IMHO.......Khan/Peterson II = Bute/Andrade II

It was a peterson fluke?

Peterson jumps on Khan sooner, Khan gets on his bicyle sooner, and Peterson wins convincingly this time. Khan just can't handle pressure well, and his inside game is severly lacking....

Home town victory...Khan comes out faster & stonger in rematch....just my opinion.

Gotcha.

Great card, excited about this one I like Peterson's heart, I think he gives Khan all he can handle in this one again. But Khan has too much skill and Freddy will correct the mistakes he made last time. It'll be close, but Khan likely takes it by a few rounds.

Nothing from the first fight led me to believe it'll be clear cut in the rematch. I predict another close decision unless Khan drops the constant movement.
