Khan withdraws appeal

I swear, I did a fart earlier that contained more boxing knowledge than your entire being.

I don't even know where to begin in addressing all the **** you've just typed, in fact I'm not even sure it can be done with the English language. It'd be like trying to cure cancer with an aspirin.

Edit: no offence!

 

Having a head is now a foul in boxing?

 

Leaning in with the head to disrupt is fouling. If it wasnt a foul why was he warned? Or let me get the right are you saying the ref was wrong to warn Peterson for using his head?

 

Leaning with the head?

 

Are you seriously this dumb? I will simplify it for you. The ref warned Peterson 19 times to stop fouling with his head with no points off. Now thats a mixture of punching and throwing his head at khan. getting in close and putting his head onto Khan. and leading with his head if you know so much about boxing surely you should know that.

I didnt want Khan to win the fight I am glad he got beat but im not away to shy away from the fact that this fight makes a mockery of boxing not just for what happened that night but Khans attitude after it.

 

David, you're an idiot.

 

wat

 

19 times mother****er.

19 times

 

You can't stop fighters from leading with the head like Peterson did. It'd result in point deductions in many fights. If you watch a good inside fighter, someone like Brandon Rios, he and his opponent will touch heads plenty of times during the fight. It's just part of boxing. Unless it's purposeful and malicious, it should be ignored. I don't think fir a second that Peterson was attempting to headbutt Khan.

 

You obviously haven't boxed mate, to throw body punches you
have to bend your knees, which means your head is lower.:huh

 

Jack what you are saying is exactly what I am trying to say. My point isnt that he was leading with the head or touching heads its the facts he was warned so many times without points off. Obviously never boxed good technique is to throw your punches and move out shouldnt leave your head in ha.

Fighters have different styles some like to rough in up inside use everything that you have in order to win a fight and well done to Peterson for doing this. The REF was very INCONSISTENT in his WARNINGS without deductions. hope thats clear enough

 

I personally think Khan should have just finished what he started, common sense says if you're going to spoil your rep by taking the appeal route then you may as well see it through.

I can understand their frustration though, the absence of key officials and Welsh would have just left Team Khan and Ameen pointing fingers. I know the rest are not IBF officials therefore they are not compelled to attend but for all we know Ameen could have said anything he wanted and there is no-one to confirm that it's true. Even if Welsh came to the appeal and supported Ameen's statement it would have clarified everything.

but the question now remains if Ameen only pointed out a mistake to Welsh then why did Welsh not support this statement? Seems a bit fishy to me.

Either way I think Team Khan should have just seen it through win or lose, I mean they've already lost a lot of reputation so they it's a lose-lose situation anyway. On the other hand it would have been a bit of a pointless appeal only because the people that matter the most do not have to be there or even give a statement.

 

I think if Khan had fought a speed fight all through the match instead of duking it out with Lamont, he would have edged it. He made the mistake of going toe to toe too often with a iron willed, steel jawed opponent who stuck to his gameplan adamantly. Khans hand speed is frightening to watch, and its not particularly slappy, he does hit hard too.

Also hopefully there will be less bias in the refereeing, though I mean no disrespect to the non stop continuous rounds of Lamont getting his head stuck in, thats what boxing is all about.

 

Remind me how many mother ****ing times?
