Comments Thread For: Khan, Schaefer Push For Investigation into Peterson Loss

[Flab]

Notwithstanding the underdog point already brought up, there are more US posters on here than any other nation so of course that's going to skew things.

Khan obviously won. More fighters should do this, perhaps we'd have less b/s robberies.

Waste time and money on ****** investigations?

khan should try and get that rematch forgot the investigation. just have a rematch in a neutral city.

[chiguy91]

if nothing happens, peterson better ask for more dough or no rematch. it was a close fight, i say khan and gbp just wait for the rematch to settle everything.

Let the officials know they can't 'job' a fighter unchallenged without any ramifications or questions being asked. Everyone should be answerable, this is professional sport in 2011.

AS I said, buffer had the scorecards, told khan he won

the ref let peterson go in with his head and elbows, if khan tried to defend himself by pushing him away he lost points

this was a disgrace of a boxing outcome, justice must be done

come on wba and ibf, do whats right for boxing and what is just, not what the haters want

Amir Khan's camp have been informed by the WBA and IBF that an appeal into the controversial points defeat by Lamont Peterson will be held in mid January.

Every time we see Schaefer's name mentioned these days, he is "furious" or "outraged" or something like. He'd better watch his blood pressure. I suppose it's the standard PR way of expressing dissatisfaction. I think Peterson won, and, although I know that peterson was going in with his head low, I don't recall a single incident of actual headbutting. Khan certainly didn't like Peterson's head on his chest, or under his chin, but he has to get used to it. He can always move to one side. He managed to perform Nijinskyean leaps to get from the ropes to the other side of the ring, in on or two bounds.

I only heard the ref caution Peterson about his head a few times, maybe 3-4 max. And not for any infraction, just as a precaution. But Khan was thrusting Peterson away with both fully extended arms as if he were "blocking". Surely illegal. I've seen points taken away for excessive pushing like that. It was very aggressive.

In this fight he reminded me of Oscar's last 5 rounds against Trinidad...........Maybe he's been listening to Oscar instead of to The Roach.

99 percent of refs dont mind pushing if they allow the other guy to fight on the inside

peterson was going in with his head non stop mate, that is against the rules

in that fight you saw the ref letting peterson go head first and land elbows on khan, when khan pushed him back to avoid being headbutted the ref told khan not to do anything

you have seen those kind of points lost for pushing? please, only a horrific ref would take points of, its a shame khan got an awful ref on the night, also awful judges....also the fact the scorecards vanished until 2 days ago and the decision was changeda t the end smells like hometown cooking

thing is if you tell one guy not to do something you have to tell the other

you cant enforce rules on one and not the other, its jusy not fair

Investigation, WTF?!? If this is how he thinks he's going to get his titles back and the loss expunged then this says an awful lot about Khan. Let's see if I'm getting this right, he loses a close fight due to the fact that his hype was unable to sustain him enough to grant him a definitive win, so when that didn't work he wanted an immediate rematch. When Peterson decides to do what any sane man would do in his place, which is consider his options, Khan pulls this stunt?

Everyday I'm reading some new angle about how he's trying to get justice outside the ring instead of handling it inside one. My opinion of Khan has been dropping like a lead balloon since the fight but now he's gone and attached rocket packs to it. Does he have any idea about how much of a baby/sore loser he looks like right now?

Heh, Khan forgot the fundamental truth about well made plans going into the Peterson bout. He should have been focused on the man that was in front of him and not potential fights down the road. Besides, given the fallout from the loss to Peterson I'm beginning to think that Khan would have lost anyway, even if he lived in the here and now.

that's because one of the judges accidentally marked round 7 as 10-8 for khan. why in the hell would khan win a round he had a point deduction in, 10-8?

I am no longer a Khan fan.

Complete and utter joke.
