Comments Thread For: Lederman: Khan Won, Referee Took it Away From Him

[xAUGUSTUSx]

Everyone thought Khan won, everyone thought Floyd lost to Castillo.
So Floyd shouldnt use the excuse he dont need to fight khan now, just cos Khan was robbed.

Last night only proved that Khan cant go around giving points away and still win in people backyards. Khan never lost though, so it dont effect a Floyd match. Dont bother going back for a rematch with Lamont and fight Floyd instead after getting yourself back in the gym to work on things.

Khan lost dude face it. He was running for his life most of the fight. He's kind of been exposed really. Because it is a sure thing now that we all know he has literally no inside game at all. He's a one trick pony really.

Khan won even with the the deductions by 1 point imo. Peterson is a decent fighter anyways Khan has not been exposed here he just had a decent exciting fight with another decent fighter. People underrated Peterson from day 1 that's the problem. It's fair to say Khan needs to work on his inside game because he had to run around to get away from Peterson but he was never outclassed, hurt or in danger of losing the fight.

The ref warned Khan for the pushes and technically it is a foul so i have no problem with that, but what i do have a problem with is how people scored a lot more rounds for Peterson than he deserved. For me it was not a hard fight to score, a lot of the rounds were fairly clear cut on who won them so i'm wondering where these rounds are that Peterson supposedly won.

Amir Khan is a sucker. If he was as good as he be shouted or what his promoters and media make him out to be then he would have been better and beat Peterson. Don't get me wrong. Peterson is a good fighter but Bradley blew by him while Khan ran and went life and death. These young fighters want to be the Floyd's and Pacquiao's but haven't put no work into doing it. All these promoters do is talk these guys up and match make to make them look better than what they really are. Lamont Peterson was hungry and determined and he wanted it. Khan couldn't handle a guy who actually came to fight and had heart.

I agree with ya here bro..Although Khan did beat Maidana,Maidana does not have the skill set of Peterson..Yet Peterson has the heart will and determination of a Maidana..I kept telling everyone that Peterson would be his hardest fight to date,I believe I was right..

I was iffy about the fight. Wasn't sure about Peterson because he always came up short in his big fights (Ortiz/Bradley) but didn't make a prediction because was still up in the air like Cotto/Margarito. Anyways, I know Bradley has got to be laughing his ass off now.

i'll say it again i thought khan won the fight, but by no means was it a robbery. if khan was as good as he and his hype machine thought he was, it wouldn't have come down to a decision. they did what i did and almost everybody else did, underestimate peterson and as far as the points go, the ref said it, i heard it clear, " if you do it again " i'm taking a point away ". that was first point deduction and it was justified as far as the second deducution that's debatable. lederman and the other hbo henchman are just fluffers for their boss, but like i said earlier, if khan was so superior than everybody else in the division it should not have come down to one point........one thing for sure the book has been exposed on khan.....any good body puncher will destroy him.

I watched the fight again and Peterson is NOT a dirty fighter but his awkward style of ducking low when coming in and then quickly getting up was making his head hit khans face and u could see khan complaining but the ref ignored him. I had khan by 1 round, but credit to both guys they gave us what us fans want... ENTERTAINMENT!!!!

thats called trying to headbutt watch round 11 what if he did land a butt? what would you all be sayin then...

[BennyST]

What the ****? Are they serious? Man, Lederman (and Dan Rafael too) are ****ing ******s. The ref did give nearly the exact warning that Lederman said he should have given him. He just didn't do it during a time out. However, he stopped Khan and told him very, very, very clearly "This is your last time Khan. Last time!"

How the hell are people missing this? It was so obvious!!!!! ARGH!!!!! The ******ity of these people is mind numbing sometimes! I seriously wanna kick him in the nuts. Now, every twat and his dog is going to be moaning about the ref not giving him a 'hard' warning when there was one and it was about as clear and obvious a bloody warning as you can get....

Unless of course you're too thick to understand what "Last time Khan. This is your last time" means is relation to the fifty warnings he had gotten previous to the point deduction. For ****s sake!!!

[daggum]

so basically what lederman is saying is he wanted the ref to give khan a final final final ultimate last warning.

So I think everybody unanimously agrees Lederman don't know shiet about boxing(Mayweather clan voice)
