    I didn't see Peterson fouling at all. What did I miss.

      Really? The pushing into the ropes, elbows up on Khan's throat numerous times. holding and hitting. They were both doing it.

        I thought Khan complaining about Peterson leading in with his head was BS. It's called inside fighting.

        But Peterson did land at least 3 pretty blatant low blows.

        As far as I'm concerned neither fouled blatantly enough to justify any points being taken from anyone. It was just a rough fight.

          I didn't see any "pushing" into the ropes. Why would he even have to do that with Khan going backward all night? I saw muscling to the ropes - which wasn't hard to do.

          Holding and hitting, I saw. Khan trying to hold on, Peterson hitting him.

            That was beyond dumb of Khan. Basically saying, "he's crouching as he comes forward!" Yeah, and?

              You honestly saw no low blows?

              Khan was definitely pushing his luck with some of the holding and pushing, so i can se some justification for the first point deduction. But the second one in the final round? BS

                Haha, ever hear the phrase "fight with your head in the guy's chest"? Pretty integral to the sport.

                  I saw a couple low blows by both fighters - which happens over a 12 round fight. Nothing that would ever be construed as "both fighters were fouling." No, I'm referring to the things that were consistent throughout.

                    All those poor heavyweights who fought Tyson. They should've been complaining like Khan.
