    Why are people complaining about the ref, The ref in the khan fight was very fair, many refs warn fighters not to hold n hit, push heads shown, shove, elbow, but the fighters never listen because the refs just warn them without any punishment, when a point was taken from khan he ran away because it was the spoiling techniques which were keeping him in the fight.

    good point.
    He was very biased in favor of Khan, in fact.

    I'd rather hear that than some pig scream I'm fair etc, then prove the opposite.

    I thought the guy did a fine fob. He should try to be clearer with his commands as he was talking to the fighters so intensely that his break instructions were difficult to discern. But Khan was fouling the whole fight and deserved the two point deductions. He could have taken the second point LONG before the 12th round. I still had Khan winning 113-112 but a draw would have been fair and Peterson winning isn't criminal by any means. I feel that 114-111 Khan is also a fair score.
