    Lamont Peterson was the real winner.

    Larry is ****ing terrible. I have no clue how he's still in the game. It's not as if he's a controversial figure who is edgy but entertaining. He is simply bad at his job.

    i hate the ****, what annoyed me most about him was when he questioned fighters hearts and bravery if they so much as took a knee, yet the ****er has never laced on a pair of gloves in his life

    Oh they lost a lot. Peterson was like a 9-1 underdog so the guys putting money on khan probably were putting down a lot to get atleast some kind of return. I didnt expect him to loose and they probably didnt either. Probably got burned.

    ^ This. Kahn was never actually "warned" about anything.

    That said, his constant pushing was rather blatant, and not always in response to Peterson going in low.

    That said, Kahn still won the fight & it was clearly home-town cooking. Another disgraceful presentation in the most corrupt sport ever known to mankind.

    That said, I don't really GAF about Kahn, so I won't lose any sleep over this.

    In the sixth round after about 6 warnings the ref told khan it was his last warning for pushing. He let it go a couple more times then took the first point

    His brain is completely addled without Boxing, god knows what state he'd be in if he'd ever had to actually box, rather than talk about it.

    Yea, I liked that. He had grounds to complain but Larry was asking him about the other 95% of the fight.
