    Khan's behaviour is bringing out all the feelings in me that I had towards him leading up to the Prescott loss. I was back onboard for quite a while recently, but he's going out of his way to be a ***** now. No class at all.

    I just don’t see any rationale for over-turning the decision. The scorecards (except the one that favoured Khan and rewarded him for throwing cuffing shots) were fair with the point deductions losing the fight for Amir.

    It’s funny that he left the UK because he felt he wasn’t appreciated. He goes to the US and then complains that he doesn’t get treated fairly. Sounds like a victim complex. Here’s a hint, Amir – you’re responsible for yourself. The only thing you can control is you. He’s gotten used to having everything in his favour recently from the money to the venue to the referees (Cortez was shamefully partial during the match with Maidana).

    He gets one piece of adversity and rather than deal with it, he cries.

    Poor show, Amir.
     
  4. Yeah I agree. The interview on BBC Breakfast was shameful.

    If you hadn't seen the fight and had only heard Khan's take on it, you would now believe that he was being constantly head butted by Peterson (enough to cause a perforated eardrum :huh), that the referee and judges were either corrupt or totally incompetent, and that they all conspired to rob Khan of his titles.

    Ridiculous.
     
  5. They've no chance of overturning the decision.

    The circumstances are completely different to the Hopkins/Dawson fight.

    Don King had more chance of overturning Tyson vs Douglas than GBP have with this fight.

    What next, try and overturn the Prescott defeat? Fast count? Should have let him continue? Prescott's back wasn't touching the ring post in the neutral corner?

    **** poor from the Khans.

    I'd imagine Peterson is loving this. Instead of them admitting it went wrong and working towards putting it right, they're crying about it and demanding a rematch. Half of me says Peterson should tell them to stick it, the other half says ''beat him again''.

    I've disliked him for some time, even though up until around the Prescott defeat I was a supporter and a fan.
    I just find him to be an absolutely classless ****, and I don't believe for a second that he would rematch Peterson if it got overturned.
    He'd use the excuse that it was a robbery and that Peterson is a dirty fighter, and go elsewhere.

    Bunce and Lillis had it right last night. The British press have been absolutely disgraceful since this fight. They're making Khan look like the victim and giving him a platform to bleat and moan and whine like a ****ing *****.

    How can anybody listen to this prat and keep a straight face?

    Robbery? get ****ing real. lose the hangers on. lose the ego. lose the victim complex. man the **** up and take your loss on your slightly dodgy chin.

    he's doing himself no favours, I was a fan of khan but this is really really putting me off him to the point I wouldn't mind him getting kod. Why does he think he's so special that he will get this overturned, surely if anything was going to be overturned lately it would be the chisora result or a fight that was actually a robbery. He's coming across as really really pathetic and childish, he only has himself to blame he was warned enough times!. That bbc article was complete trash too, why even mention peterson was on the canvas twice in the first round? It wasn't a ****ing knockdown but any clown reading that who has not seen the fight will think khan got screwed badly. I'm really fed up of him now, can't remember turning against a fighter so suddenly, there are a few posters going round saying the british have turned on him because of his second name which is complete bull****, if that was the case surely we'd not be fans of his in the first place.

    What an idiot, think he has lost quite a few fans over this. I'm glad Lamont won now and hopes he tells him to stick the rematch.

    I'm hoping this too, khan doesn't deserve a rematch purely for how he's acting. It seems really disrespectful to peterson. If it was the other way round and khan had took that decision then there's no way there would be a rematch. If I was peterson id take the bradley fight, sure he wont get paid as much but if he can win that fight then he'll be onto big paydays. If the rematch does happen though, i'll be routing for peterson this time.

    True, he makes himself very hard to like. He needs boxing people around him instead of all his family. The way he conducts business is poor. He's soured most of his relationships in the sport. He ****ed off Oliver Harrison, Fwank, the British Isles, Alex Ariza (only to get back with him) ITV, Sky , Primetime etc.

    That shows how difficult his people are to work with and how far his loyalties extend. I hope Peterson offers him the re match on the **** poor terms that team Khan originally offered him.

    khan seems to think the boxing world revolves around him, its the hangers on that he has bigging him up and sucking his **** at every moment, they probably dont know any other boxers apart from mayweather and pacman, they need to open their eyes

    Yep, dissing all of DC post-fight was quite moronic. I believe he's plateaued as a fighter and will not develop any further, I like Roach but Khan has so many deficiencies that Roach is not the trainer to correct them. It's all so disappointing, time to change trains and jump on the Special 'K' Express:
