Comments Thread For: Lamont Peterson Unseats Amir Khan, Wins The Titles

[S IP U IR S xII]

The ref not taking any points from Khan would have been tantamount to what Russell Mora did in Agbeko vs Mares I. Amir clearly LOST the fight by assuming he would get preferential treatment and fighting like an amateur. All that looking at the ref and whining/holding because Pete's head was low? Jumping on Pete's back like a low-calorie BHop? Take yo punk A$$ back to the UK with that. It's a shame that a ref does the RIGHT thing for once and gets treated like he was a turncoat mob ref or something. De La jumped up and pointed at the ref like 'you're a dead man'. I'd be out too! The ref did miss a couple of low blows by Pete but still.

you sir....are completely clueless

Even when Khan won a round, he did it by running and landing pity-pat punches. He should have stood his ground and fought back. Khan thinks he so much better than he actually is. That's his main problem.

khans garbage !!!

I hope boxing scene will now stop posting threads about khan and remove his freakin pic from the top of they're website... the dudes over rated and always has been !!! now he's got to get rid of two nightmares Peterson/Prescott, but let's not forget this is the dude who has the style to beat mayweather !!! what a freakin joke !!!! lmao

I just laugh at those saying Peterson would have been an easy night's work. People who knew boxing KNEW that Peterson was going to bring the fight and look to win. SMH

[pugilistprophet1994]

Anyone else hear Khan say to Peterson "Stop pushing me into the ropes" lmao!!!

[GodInFleshSuit]

and NEW!!!!!!!! All jokes aside I had it a draw. Felt the Con knockdown was more from a push than the actual punch. Con was fighting pretty dirty too. Lots of elbows w/ those pushes and head pushdowns. He did too much running imo. Still think he did enough to get a draw though. I can't stand Con but I'm not gonna be biased either.

Its pretty damn good fight. This only means that dirty tricks does'nt win fights. Peterson deserved the win and the titles. Can't wait for the rematchd the titles. The third judge who scored 114-111 for Khan must be on drugs.

I was making a point to the people who always point to Compubox numbers to justify the person who won.
The fight was close even without the point deductions and could have gone either way to a draw.
Glad Khan got exposed though, there really is no discussion on who the king of 140 now.
I'll let you stick to your butthurt about Khan losing though

WTF are you talking about? I scored it a draw but had no problem with Peterson winning, and it was by the narrowest of margins. But to try to prove it using Compubox numbers is just ******.

And anyone who tries to pretend that it wasn't as close as it's possible for a fight to be is being ridiculous.

great performance by Peterson, actually by both men great fight. I just hope people can finally now realize Khan was never meant to be an elite fighter, Mayweather, Bradley, and Ortiz all smoke him. Won't even throw his fellow sparring mate Pacquiao, cause that would be Hatton KO2 all over again.

lol @ people clowning Ortiz having a tough fight with Peteron, and now he upsets Khan

[FJRod]

Lets be real people Khan won! Peterson brought A game can't take away from him when it comes to that but the REF> and The JUDGES won him the fight.
