Vid of how many times Kahn pushed off

[Kagami Taiga]

Leading with his head my ass. He crouched, yes. But he didn't "lead with his head." And my point was that there was nothing wrong with Peterson's stance. Get over it.

its funny these dudes complain about the point deductions for pushing even tho it was blatant and illegal but then turn around and complain about things peterson did, and they arent illegal. lol, i swear if this is what passes for boxing fans then this sport really is in trouble.

They're simply butthurt.

Khan stans sounding a little butthurt today. Khan has no one to blame but himself for this loss. Time to go back to the drawing board and rebuild (again).

Absolutely.

But is Roach the one to do it this time? Not so sure.

[Oxn]

Im fine with arm pushes to create distance, and once in a while Khan did that.

But too many time did he push off with both feet, trying to get peterson half the ring away.

[IMDAZED]

Absolutely.

Some of the changes can be made by Roach. Really, how hard is it to tell Amir to stand, slip and counter. Others can't. Has Freddie Roach ever taught anyone in-fighting? Sheesh.

Nope.

Freddie Roach has gone green. Recycling styles is good for the environment

Funny for a guy who studied under Futch.

Nor is preaching and teaching defense one of his strengths. Hell, when Pacquiao fights the right (or wrong depending on with whom you speak) opponents his head gets knocked around like a beach ball. Plus, Khan at times literally lunges or runs right in on a line when he fights on the front foot. This is something that Pacquiao will also do.

If Khan isn't going to learn how to fight on the inside, he's going to have to be a master of dictating distance ala Wlad. Solid footwork would also help, not running around like Bambi on ice.

How about you read the rules?

Stuff aint illegal just cause you say it is, it's illegal cause its in the RULES.

"Leading with the head" isn't the same as coming in with your head low and by boxing LAW you are ALLOWED to come in with your head low as long as it isn't below your opponents waist. Peterson didn't crouch down with his head in Khans crotch.......

Infact, forget it.

Here are the rules:

-You cannot hit below the belt, hold, trip, kick, headbutt, wrestle, bite, spit on, or push your opponent.
-You cannot hit with your head, shoulder, forearm, or elbow.
-You cannot hit with an open glove, the inside of the glove, the wrist, the backhand, or the side of the hand.
-You cannot punch your opponent's back, or the back of his head or neck (rabbit punch), or on the kidneys (kidney punch).
-You cannot throw a punch while holding on to the ropes to gain leverage.
-You can't hold your opponent and hit him at the same time, or duck so low that your head is below your opponent's belt line.
-When the referee breaks you from a clinch, you have to take a full step back; you cannot immediately hit your opponent--that's called "hitting on the break" and is illegal.
-You cannot spit out your mouthpiece on purpose to get a rest.
-If you score a knockdown of your opponent, you must go to the farthest neutral corner while the referee makes the count.
-If you "floor" your opponent, you cannot hit him when he's on the canvas.
-A floored boxer has up to ten seconds to get back up on his feet before losing the bout by knockout.
-A boxer who is knocked down cannot be saved by the bell in any round, depending upon the local jurisdiction's rules.
-A boxer who is hit with an accidental low blow has up to five minutes to recover. If s/he cannot continue after five minutes, s/he is considered knocked out.
-If the foul results in an injury that causes the fight to end immediately, the boxer who committed the foul is disqualified.
-If the foul causes an injury but the bout continues, the referee orders the judges to deduct two points from the boxer who caused the injury.
-If an unintentional foul causes the bout to be stopped immediately, the bout is ruled a "no contest" if four rounds have not been fully completed. (If the bout was scheduled for four rounds, then three rounds must have been completed.) If four rounds have been completed, the judges' scorecards are tallied and the fighter who is ahead on points is awarded a technical decision. If the scores are even, it will be called a "technical draw."
-If a boxer is knocked out of the ring, he gets a count of 20 to get back in and on his feet. He cannot be assisted.
-In some jurisdictions the standing eight-count or the three knockdown rule also may be in effect.
-In other jurisdictions, only the referee can stop the bout.

Argue with the rules of boxing all you want.

Fact is, Khan broke multiple rules over and over and over again and the ref wasn't having any.

Deal with it.

LOL. I was telling DAZED this during the fight. I HATE Khan's footwork.

It was the same during the Maidana fight too.
