Comments Thread For: Team Khan: We Were Told Amir Won, Scores Changed

[Left2theliver]

I thought Khan won that fight, 113-112. But I do think people are exaggerating a little bit with the ref. He did a crappy job, yes, but this isn't anywhere near as bad as MAres vs. Agbeko 1 was. I think had everything gone right, it shoulda been 115-113 for Khan, thw two points for Khan was wack, as well as the "knockdown" that occured early. That being said, this is just karma biting Khan in the ass for getting caught in his own hype and thinking that he could go to DC and beat Lamont in his own town. That being said, Lamont proved to everyone that he is indeed a championship level fighter. He did a great job at making Khan fight and giving him trouble. Regardless, it was a good, close and competitive fight, so I don't blame anyone for having different scores than I did. I'm down for a rematch.

There goes losing with integrity...

from the looks of this clip khan was squeezing out a wet fort with integrity...........

khan your amateurish combos bouncing off petersons gloves won't do it.you couldnt take the body shots and right hands that impressed the judges,you got your ass whoopped .the ref helped you with a phantom knock down and all 3 judges called the last round even although you had a point taking away.end of story.

I guess some folks can't accept reality. It was such a close fight but the right man was given the nod, in my way of thinking, it shouldn't have been this close if Khan's abilities matched his hype. If his hype were as real as his mouth advertised he would have cruised to victory and we'd be talking about a possible Mayweather match up, but truth is ever the confounder of every well laid plan.

The problem with Khan is that his mouth is far more skillful than his boxing. I bought into the hype too, so what does that tell ya?

couldn't have said it better...although i didn't buy into the khan hype. problem with khan is he can't fight on the inside...he still fights like an amateur. peterson was dipping and ripping hard body shots and coming over the top and around khans guard and his only answer was to earmuff or pull petersons head down. khans whining after the fight about being a the cleaner fighter showed that he's surrounded by yes men...someone needs to tell him he was the only one doing anything dirty in there.

LEave it alonE... LEave it alone! Pls! Pls! The scores were close, but bottom line Khan lost.. Just deal with it.. your guys are just butt hurt, because the world got to see how much of a different level FMJ is at than Khan.. And for that Team Khan is depressed! Just face the facts!

Of course the scores were changed.

He got deducted 2 points.

Score card matches up to that... 113-112 for Peterson.

It means Khan's idiocy got him a L.

How close was the fight guys?

[F l i c k e r]

How close was the fight guys?

Pretty close imo. Nothing dominant from either fighter.

But I believed Khan's performance would give him the win if it wasn't for the deductions.


judge: Nelson Vazquez 115-110 Khan
judge: George Hill 112-113 Peterson
judge: Valerie Dorsett 112-113 Peterson


Khan literally loss because of the point deductions. Nothing else.

Khan looked way better overall throughout the whole fight. More combinations, more punches landed, showed more control over Peterson then Peterson over Khan overall. He was ducking and weaving alot but ****, that's his style. I bet when Mayweather or Pernell Whitaker do they're ducking and weaving running around people don't call that running. Same ****. Khan will show all of you who's who on the rematch. Khan got robbed, it's sad no-one else is admitting it. Don't get me wrong, Peterson fought a hellll of a fight and proved alot but he simply didn't win that fight. With that DC cooking ofcourse he won but it wasn't the true outcome. A draw at minimun. See ya'll at the rematch.
