    It is on topic, you hang out of the back of Khans arsehole, living off every word like its gospel, you really believe Khan just wants a rematch? wake up mate.

    So true, I agree with all of that.

    Also, some of the language on this by Team Khan is blatantly insinuating corruption of sorts, if this cannot be backed up with water tight evidence, then I hope that they are made to answer for it, just like anyone else would if they made false allegations without proper evidence.

    Schaefer just said on Sky Sports that the man works for the IBF but he wasnt assigned to the fight and no one knows why he was there or why he was in the ring with Peterson at the end.

    That really is the issue, isn't it?

    After Khan complaining the decision was "bad for boxing" (shorthand for "bad for me"), it's painful to watch him basically make out the whole sport is corrupt when nothing untoward has happened.

    I hope he gets ****ed up in his next fight.

    I didn't say that, there are certain ways he could have gone about this that would have got the same result and less in the media spotlight, using twitter and making it so public was wrong IMO.

    Khan is lucky the fight was on Sky Sports, this would be getting nowhere near the media attention if it had been on Primetime.

    So there are no dodgy decisions in boxing? they happen every week.

    Yeah, Khan's out to clean up boxing's corruption, same as Mayweather is out to stop juicing!

    Laughable, really. If Khan was interested is serving the sport he'd try to sort this out in private. All GBP and Team Khan are trying to do is pressure the IBF and WBA into ordering a rematch. As soon as they do, we'll hear nothing else their efforts to cleaning up the sport.

    In this case there was nothing dodgy about the fight. Nothing.

    WTF you on about Khan will bite his hand at a chance for a rematch. Don't start making up your own facts, when you can't back it up mate.

    Amir Khan deserves a huge amount of credit. He would have exposed this situation even if he had won the fight.

    You dont think its dodgy that an IBF representative who wasnt even assigned to the fight is sitting at ringside messing with the cards and then in the ring celebrating with Lamont Peterson at the end?

    Even if this fight wasn't dodgy, that doesn't dismiss the fact that dodgy decisions happen all the time. Boxing is losing far more fans due to corrupt officiating than from the damage Khan is going to do with his comments. People are disillusioned very quickly when a clear winner is declared the loser.
