Amir Khan vs. Lamont Peterson - Saturday - fight/chat thread

[outspoken]

Damn petersons corner almost knocked him out

[Swice]

I don't think Peterson should be counting on a decision here, he should be gunning for the KO. Don't leave any doubt.

[CFH]

2 points!? This ref is so bad that I wouldn't be surprised to see if get ruled a N/C if Peterson wins, and that would be awful for Peterson.

If you're not going to call any breaks you CANNOT penalize a fighter for pushing. This is ludicrous and it's cheapening a great fight.

Repeatedly and a lot of the time it was ignored too. Khan deserved what he got.

[killersheep]

Rematch anyone? I don't see why not.

[ICB]

I didn't think Peterson was knocked down either, i'd like to see that replay again. How can you retain your title running like that with all that holding ?

I thought the 2nd one was legit, but I'm not sure about the first.

[ICB]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssss

It was about surviving all too often, you can't win fights and impress with such negativity. I like seeing a stalker though and was pleased to see Peterson warm to the role. He fought like the hungry fighter and was being spoiled all the time. He wanted to fight, Khan didn't seem to.

And Peterson is the winner!

I'm not sure if you're serious, he never received anything more than a cursory warning.

This was one of the worst ref jobs I have ever seen. I think Peterson deserves to win, but this is going to cause a stupid amount of controversy if he does get the nod.

How many times do you warn someone before taking a point? I mean I know it's not a foul that's called, but that doesn't make leading with the forearm any less illegal.

You stop the fight, explain to the fighter what he is doing wrong, and then tell him that you're going to take a point next that. That's how it works. You don't randomly yell shit at him while he's in the midst of trading punches.

Peterson wins by SD... hmmm.. I don't like Khan, but there's no way Peterson would have won that fight if it weren't for the 2 questionable point deductions.
