Khan did go on a little too much about the referee. But, he is well within his rights to demand an explanation for the hatman talking to commissioner and seemingly handling scorecards at the ringside during the right. All while he had to no official capacity for the fight. Moreover, the hatman official is seen celebrating afterwards with the Peterson camp. Khan is right raise concerns.
dont want the scumbag organisations ect to get away with breaking their own bloody rules! :twisted: and peterson won a title by default,by points deductions of his opponent,what kind of way is that to win a world title,what kind of champ wins like that? atsch rematch imediately so a clear cut winner can be given.
They have rules in boxing for a reason. He didnt win by default. He won because he beat up Khan, Khan didnt know what to do, had no plan B and repeatedly starting shoving with his arms, which he was warned about and rightfully deducted points.
First fight Ive ever watched where points deductions were given for pushing, let alone 2 points. George Foreman used to push all the time but no refs deducted a point!
The reason Khan started whinging is is because Peterson started backing out of rematch. After the fight he said he wanted one, but then later he changed his mind. Khan would have kept his trap shut if he thought Peterson wanted a rematch, but it now it looks like he wants to avoid Khan.
Peterson and Hunter need to shut the **** up now. Everyone is slamming Khan but Peterson and his people need to realise it WAS CONTROVERSIAL and it WAS ****ING CLOSE! So Peterson, Khan wouldn't yap as much if he got the rematch. He is yapping to try and get you to sign on the ****ing dotted line.
highlighted the main point, you had it a draw, so which card was more realistic the one where peterson won by 1 or the one where khan won by 4. Peterson won, and the only gripe i have is that it was an unfair points deduction, but the main facts are, he got it deducted, he spent the second half of the fight on the backfoot, peterson was hungrier, and throughout the build up to the fight, Khan spent every interview banging on about how he can beat floyd mayweather, and not enough time concentrating on how he is going to be lamont peterson, showing no respect to peterson, and now showing even less respect after the fight. if hatman had a massive influence, for example if khan won every round yet lost the fight, i can see where he has a case, but the cards was fair enough to me. Peterson is the champ, and he should be able to fight whoever he wants. as much as it breaks your heart, kingkhan2011 AKA the most deluded and biased poster on ESB
probably your best post to date not that i read them all ,except i would rather see maidana v khan first with peterson ,giving up the wba strap so this would be on the line as maidana is the regular belt holder. maybe a peterson v bradly rematch and then if there was not any bigger fights at that moment in time for khan a reamtch with peterson:yep
:verysad Never would have happened if he was still with Frank.Lamont would have fought over here for $100,000 and signed a rematch clause because thats how Frank works.The cross dresser could learn a hell of a lot from our best promoter.
I do agree that there isn't much the hatman could have done to influence the scores as the fight was close anyway. However "dirty tactics" as you may call them to create controversy and get rematch are being used and it is apparent that they may get what they want. Either way everyone wants to see the rematch at least it settles scores and erases all doubts (hopefully) whether Khan can adjust or not?? It may prove if he is the real deal?
