    HBO announcer bias is getting out of hand...

    I don't want to watch anything with the sound off but good gosh.

    You're going for Khan, okay, but announce what's going on without that opinion thrown in.

    Khan roughed up in the first round and it was all good. Khan has been doing a full body push that the ref was warning him for since the 2nd round, don't sound mad at the ref for taking a point.

    I wish Roy Jones fought next week so i could get some real boxing talk.

            I trust Steward's response over those guys and Steward said that the point deductions were not the right call. And as correctly pointed out, pushing is a minor offense, and for a repeated minor offense, any good referee tells the fighter...."if you do that again, i'm going to take points"

            And it's not as though the ref didn't mess a few low blows from Peterson, didn't get himself tangled up in the 1st round, etc, etc, etc.

            In general, poor referee IMO.
