we have seen crazy ****ed up stuff happen inside a ring and outside a ring during a fight... I've seen a man fly into the ring (remember fanman?). I've seen a promoter walk over and ring the bell 30 seconds into a round when his fighter was in trouble (Danny Williams fight) and the round was allowed to end. I've seen a mother jump into a ring and start hitting her sons oppnent with a shoe (or handbag). and I'm sure people on here could name many many more for me this will end up as some crazy random man who chanced his arm and got involved in something he shouldn't have but whatever happens Peterson will not lose his belts because of it. the decision was given, the WBA and IBF did not order a rematch, so unless GPB and Khan have anything concrete they can forget it.
love him loathe him whatever, amirs got some genuine questions that he wants answered i dont see the problem
Peterson won the fight with the deductions, but that doesn't dismiss the fact that the man in the fedora was a little to close to the judges and very odd.
Just heard on the radio (talksport) it's been said that Hatman claimed to be an official of the IBF.... the IBF have just said he is nothing to do with them. they are saying exactly what I said, this was some nutter who chanced his arm and claimed to be somebody else, like those crazies who gets in team photos. nobody can blame Peterson...
(talksport) the WBA President has just said "there should be a rematch"... in my opinion Peterson will now get legal advice and prevent this, unless they have any hard evidence they will have to let this go.
let me get this right, the card khan complained about george hills card at round seven lost him the fight, so now where does hat man get close to this card he sat next to walsh. oh yeah the ref was to blame as well and the city of washington dc to, i really am :? to which it is. did i forget peterson constatly head butting him have i missed anything else:conf
Thing is with a hearing judges will no doubt get asked 'do you stand by the scoreline you gave on fight night'. I suspect they will say yes and i think the fact this guy can't be proven at present as a member of Peterson's entourage i see the fight result being left same a win to Peterson and a rematch being ordered. The fact he never was speaking to Judges or not that we know of says that although he may have touched the cards and spoken to Walsh he hasn't affected the scoring if Judges stick by there cards and say they wasn't influenced. Team Khan will be gutted they clearly want the result changed, rematch they will take but they wanted more.
Looks like a rematch, surely?

Richard Conway (@richard_conway) 06/01/2012 18:09 WBA President: Welsh was "concerned about the gentleman being around him" "couldn't get coordination to do job properly during the fight" Richard Conway (@richard_conway) 06/01/2012 18:13 WBA President: "The [Washington DC] Commission did not behave properly in this fight in seeking the fairness that needed to be [there]" Now all we need is for this guy to be linked to Peterson & his credibility will be up in smoke. What a joke. I'm totally with Khan - can understand why he's pissed off & asking these questions.
