    Ok i have tried to dismiss this Khan argument as sour grapes , Mystery man ? Dodgy scorecard ? etc ...points raised are valid but.....

    Between rounds 8 - 12 ..did Khan do enough to win ?? looking at the scorecard ..and may i point out ..untampered scoring ... the answer is NO ..

    Looking at the scorecard ..after the ' alledged ' tampering Khan is STILL AHEAD ... so i honestly dont get his beef ..

    I think all 3 judges have separate scorecards and give those scorecards to a person who then tallies it onto a final scoresheet for Buffer to annouce.

    I personally believe it's a simple matter of the person writing down the final scorecard making a mistake.

    Isn't that the round where Khan had the point deducted? If so, it's a non issue.

    ps. Love the avatar btw

    the issue isn't with the mistake being made on the master scorecard it is why an guy with no credentials was allowed to sit ringside with the WBA supervisor, distract him, sift through his papers, distract the judges, handle the RBR score cards and papers etc.
    That's the issue here not the simple mistake that was made on the master scorecard. That was an innocent mistake that has been reasonably explained already.

    This.

    It's pointless talking about that scoresheet.

    The main issue is Hatman being in a place where he shouldn't have been, and doing the things he shouldn't have been doing. I personally believe he's innocent, but just him being there and clearly being seen handling slips and sheets (which could have been the ones coming from the judges) opens the possibility of him doing something dodgy (whatever it could have been).

    Khan's lot are right to ask questions.

    But I personally believe nothing wrong was done. I'm sure there's an innocent explanation to all of this.

    I totally agree ...in fact with all the comments .. i do belive the fight to be too close to argue with the decision either way ..
    I also agree ..the Hatman was ..inappropriately sat.. and that should be questioned ..by both corners ..
