    I just came on here to post just that.

    And **** Freddie Roach for going along with it. He didn't need to go along with allthjs corruption bollocks to show solidarity with his kid.

    I will never be an Amir Khan fan after this. He was really starting to win me round from Kotelnik onwards even though I didn't like his approach to the game, but he's a complete nobhead.

    Also, Tito started at light welter. I'd take that version of him over Khan no worries.

    I feel for Peterson here, kid puts up a fantastic fight a fair amount around world feel he won fight. He can't enjoy his first few months as champion cos of all this who ha. Very sad for the guy. I can understand Khan's camp querying the situation with the guy with hat but it's all in a long line of straw clutching IMO.

    We'll wait and see what happens.

    Sorry I wasn't particularly clear. My question was why would losing two on the bounce to Peterson be 'game over at the top level' for Khan? I agree that it's entirely feasible that Khan could lose the rematch even more convincingly than the manner in which he lost the first.

    Again I agree about Lederman's lack of partiality, but I think opinion on this forum, in both the General and British was split evenly.

    From the rbr in the Brit forum, Ishy, LHL and Vano-Irons had Khan shading it by a round. Skillspaysbills, Bajingo and Tommy V all scored the fight for Peterson. They were the only posters who declared a winner before the scorecards were announced. I'll have a look at at the rbr in the general tomorrow.

    "Khan Conspiracy" the headline on Sky Sports news.

    Reported by the guy that asked George Groves when he's gonna fight Khan :lol:


    I love how his main complaint seems to be that round 7 was correctly changed to 10-8 Peterson, when it was initially marked down as giving Khan 10 points in that round, despite him being deducted a point and probably losing the round as well.

    Lamont's team are supposedly not giving the rematch so I can see why they've resorted to this. At the end of the day, it only gives them more ground to get to the bodies to push an immediate rematch.

    Those clips look well dodgy. Who the **** is that guy and why is he speaking to that guy during the fight.

    I think peterson won but man it looks shifty.

    Exactly, might not be any truth in that whats so ever, i think the dodgy scorecards and ''conspiracy'' is a load of pish myself.

    The thing is Khan wants the 'L' taken away you can see it the way he's gone on since final bell in DC. That's what's on his mind not having rematch just get the 'L' taken away and titles back.

    Yeah I know. My point of contention was the fact that he was referenced in the first place - of all the former greats that could be summoned to humble Khan, I would've thought someone from his actual weight class would've been chosen.

    Furthermore despite the fact that i've never seen any of his fights below welterweight, I would still assume that he would have far too much for Amir.

    It was Christmas and New Year less than a week ago ffs. Why would Lamont Peterson immediately spoil his own victory celebrations just to slave to King Khan?

    And for all this conspiracy and corruption talk, nobody has still explained to me why Khan's promoters needed to know the scores before they got announced.

    Bang on the ****ing button.

    I've been thinking about the above too, it's quite obvious he want's the "L" taken away and a "NC" put there instead.

    IBF & WBA should simply enforce a rematch. Too many strange happenings surrounding how the judging was conducted. I think a rematch would settle this once & for all. I feel sorry for Peterson but then the irregularities cited by Team Khan lead me to understand why they feel cheated. The questions being asked by Amir are fair in view of the photographic / video evidence of someone breaching commission rules.

    This whole thing makes the WBA & IBF look like a curropt joke. I suspect it'll be all over the media tomorrow..
