[lest26]

great interview, good ref that knows exactly what he is doing, amazing how much criticism he has recieved just coz cry baby khan cant take take a loss like a man.

Why are they interviewing now? Anyways he warned Khan before deducting points, If i remember correctly he warn Khan more than twice, Even though this is the first time i have seen a referee warn a fighter for pushing another fighter off him.

Give that man his belts back and change that cheating F*** victory to a NC.

Is it just coincidence that this guy comes out to defend himself just after it came out Peterson cheated in the first fight?

If he was being fair, why'd he warn Peterson about 19 times about coming in with the head but take no points?

Anyway we know Peterson cheated so who gives a f***.

Or low blows.

I knew he was ******ed when he blurted out some derp **** at the start of the fight.

Good interview.

I feel for the ref, I think he did a good job and a lot of the criticism of him has been unfair.

It’s been five months since the controversial first fight between Amir Khan and Lamont Peterson, a bout that ended as a close split decision win for Peterson — with the two points that referee Joe Cooper had taken from Khan for pushing providing Peterson with the margin of victory.
