Muay Thai – ‘The art of eight limbs’ World champion Amir Khan has admitted he is expecting a tough challenge from America’s Lamont Peterson when the two lock horns for the WBA and IBF light-welterweight world titles in Washington on Saturday.
Eighteen of Khan’s 26 wins have come by way of knockout.
In 2007, he unified the IBF and WBA light welterweight titles in Las Vegas with a convincing win over America’s Zab Judah and will now put both on the line against Peterson on Saturday.
