    Yes, there should, but there isnt. Was there a level playing field with Khan fought McCloskey, he had three English judges and was the doc English too - should that be the case for a world title fight. It is hypocritical to all of a sudden cry wolf and say that this case with Peterson is about fairness and the betterment of boxing when you look at the treatment Khan has got over the years. **** him, he is a contender again, rematch McCloskey or Prescott. I hope Peterson gets the Pac fight.

    Maybe he was from Petersons team. Maybe he was trying to badger someone to tell him how the cards were reading so that Lamont and his team had a clearer idea of what to keep doing?

    McCloskey didn't come to fight, the judges could have been his mother/father/uncle and they still would have scored for Khan.

    Come on, man. With all of the strange occurrences and unanswered questions, use your imagination of what could have happened. No one, including Khan himself, is giving us a definite account of what conspired. They’re just asking questions and wanting answers, and rightfully so. Because the following strange things happened:

    • WBA official tallying the fight as a draw.
    • IBF scorecard disappearing when it would have been needed to clarify the WBA score which was different from the one read out.
    • Hatman :hat claiming to be an IBF official, and observing and handling official scoresheets which are coming from the official judges (nobody is supposed to do this!). The real IBF official, Paul Artisst, is sitting on the other side, by the way.
    • WBA not having a clue who Hatman :hat is, and its official claiming to be annoyed by Hatman :hat, who wouldn’t allow him to do his job properly.
    • DC Commission not knowing who Hatman :hat is.
    • IBF (whose scorecard went missing on the night) refusing to answer any questions until after the hearing.
    So in between that, God knows who Hatman :hat is or what he could have done, especially since he was handling the slips and the commission he claims to have belonged to, lost its scoresheet on the night. Whether he’s legit or not, Khan still has the right to ask these questions. You can’t expect him to remain silent and not bother finding out what was going on.

    Pathetic response. It is a 12 round fight, his game plan was to come into it in the second half of the fight. Look at Theoplane's last fight, he got battered for most of the fight but stopped his opponent, let's have a bit of perspective here.

    There really is nothing in those circumstances that screams conspiracy, because Khan was ahead on all the cards until the point deduction. It's the shittest "fix" I've seen.

    The cards took ages getting back to Buffer who according to Amir had told him he had won a Split decision.:-(
    Plus the picture that leaked showing the one judge giving Khan a 10-9 rd then changing it to 10-8 Peterson when he remembered that Khan had a point deducted.
    Should have been a 9-9

    I like Peterson, but please don't come out with McCloskey second half of fight game plan theories. Those are far too bizarre for me to stomach.

    You need to go to a few more fight cards and read up on your history because that last contribution just shows that you (*clears throats* for Roger Mayweather accent) "don't know **** about boxing". I wont be consuming anymore words on you.:good

    Again, he's not saying "Fix". He's just asking questions. Not giving them. He wants to know why all of those inconsistincies (that I listed) happened. That's all. As Jim Watt said, he's right to enquire. Some of those things shouldn't have happened.
