I love the brief description of the Khan fight
On December 11, 2010, Amir Khan won a controversial unanimous decision over Maidana with the judges scoring it 114-111, 114-111, 113-112. The fight was fiery from the offset and despite Maidana scoring several large blows in the 10th and 11th round, rocking Khan, he was unable to finish Khan off. This was mainly due to the referee Joe Cortez interfering whenever Maidana was gaining the advantage. This bought Khan valuable seconds to recover. The crowd booed Khan when the decision was announced. The fight was called one of the 'fights of the decade' by Oscar De La Hoya.
I love 'the crowd booed Khan when the decision was announced'. The only time they booed was when Maidana was interviewed.
Also on an semi related note, did anyone else think the post fight interviews were the worst ever on HBO? Larry asked a single question to Amir and two to Maidana and the whole thing was over inside a minute. It was like they had two minutes to evacuate the building or something. Even Merchant's post fight wrap up lasted about 15 seconds and concentrated only the upcoming Alexander Bradley fight and the Lombardi documentary. Pathetic.
If its on Wikipedia then it must be true. Its a FACT now Bilbo ! Stick that in your damn hobbit pipe and smoke it you bastard !
haha I can certainly imagine Miles citing it as the official verdict
Maybe I wrote it...
Maybe not.
