"People don't realize how good of fight this is going to be", said Sharif Salim, manager for Seth 'Mayhem' Mitchell who will also be on the card.
Salim coined the fight between Khan and Peterson, "succulent to the boxing pallet".
Citing the boxing styles of the Khan and Peterson as "the same", he tells us the hunger in both fighters is what will make this fight a non-stop, toe-to-toe action packed boxing event.
Khan will be looking to hold on to his current super welter-weight championship status, while Peterson will be looking to gain the title.

The other half of the boxing Peterson twins, brother Anthony (30-0), suffering his first defeat last year against Brandon Rios said he is proud of his brother.
"Absolutely", he said.
Then, in a revealing piece of not 'heard often information', Anthony goes on to say about he and his brother's boxing careers, "This wasn't my dream", I was just trying to chase him", citing his want to emulate his brother.
Anthony Peterson is priming himself for a comeback in the near future.
The December 10th event at the Washington Convention Center will also feature DC undefeated heavy-weight boxer, Seth 'Mayhem' Mitchell.
