Judges seemed to score the fight fair.  Khan was robbed by an incompetent referee.  Those two deducted points cost Khan the fight.

Khan pushed Peterson 50 times last Saturday and only lost two points

By Scott Gilfoid: For the Amir Khan fans who felt that referee Joe Cooper was victimizing Khan for taking two points away from him for pushing Lamont Peterson last Saturday night, someone has gone to the trouble of putting together a Youtube video showing all of the instances where Khan pushed Peterson in the fight and the final total of Khan’s pushes came to a whopping total of 50.

LOOK HERE ——> ()

Yes, 50 instances where Khan gave Peterson a hard shove. Since pushing is illegal boxing, as it gives a fighter an unfair advantage over his opponent, even one push is one too many.

I’ve included the link to the Youtube video for boxing fans interested in seeing for themselves Khan breaking the rules shoving Peterson around the ring like he was a little bull instead of a boxer. After I watched the video, I was sickened by what I saw. It wasn’t boxing that Khan was doing, it was someone trying to prevent a fight.

You could clearly hear referee Joe Cooper tell Khan “This is your last warning” shortly before taking away the 1st point for pushing in the 7th round. At that point, Khan had already pushed Peterson 18 times in the fight. The criticism after the fight by the HBO talking heads is that Cooper had failed to clearly give Khan a final warning before taking off the point, but you can sure here Copper say to Khan that his is last warning. It’s disappointing to see HBO miss things like this because they’re supposed to be professionals, right?

Khan looked scared at times and towards the end of the fight, he just looked exhausted from Peterson’s pressure. The pushing video didn’t included Khan’s constant headlocks and his grabbing Peterson around the head and pulling him forward. Those fouls would no doubt bring Khan’s foul total much, much higher where we could in theory have seen as many as 100 fouls from Khan last Saturday night.

Since Khan only lost a mere two points for all his fouling, I think he got a pretty good deal out of the fight, don’t you? Khan got away with a bogus knockdown in the 1st, which was a slip rather a legitimate knockdown. And then he got away with shoving, pulling down on Peterson’s head and wrapping him in head locks for pretty much the entire fight. Let’s look at it this way: What would have happened had Khan not used any of those fouls?

I think he would have been knocked out. I mean he lost anyway, but I think those fouls ultimately were a crutch to save Khan from being knocked out, because he had no inside game. So the fouling – shoving, headlocks and pulling down on the head of Peterson – were the equivalent of a crutch for someone who didn’t have the skills to beat this guy with his vastly superior inside game.

Nope. Not Peterson's brother. Just a cat who watched the fight you evidently missed. But you did watch the vid and you're still talking crap when the fouls are right there in plain view. You must be the guy who buys Khan's panties.

You want to talk about the fight let's get at it. I love boxing. All I did was post a video without any comment. You want to defend A Mere Con's performance against Peterson I'd love to hear it. But don't try to be insulting because I'm pretty good at that too.

[tailspin]

goota go with the cat-man on this one
Khan has no inside game, limited upper body strength and a glass jaw as shown by his quick knockout by the colombian guy
his only option is to keep pushing the guy out of range, and he should have been disqualified...in the video clip above, he actually looks terrified as be backpedals

interestingly, Lennox Lewis had a similar chin problem to Khan but he had a great jab, excellent power shots from outside, and would simply lean on shorter fighters whenever they got close so they couldn;t hit him.....and it worked!

bbtw I think khan and peterson are crap fighters

sorry chicagogato i just looked at where you got your info from[boxing news 24,by scott gilfoid] quote's from a boxing forum,is there a worse boxing jounalist, a buffoon say no more.

Okay... here you go again. First I must be Peterson's brother now you're asking me if I work for a packing company. What the h*ll are you on about and what does that have to do with the Peterson Khan match up? I couldn't care less who your brother is or where you work. Why are you coming at me like this? Is it because I pointed out that other people feel like Khan is not as skilled as some of his fan think? Including you? Why don't you talk about that and stop trying to get into a keyboard brawl?

True, I haven't had much to say on TV forums in 5 years but when I have something to say I say it! One thing is for certain, I can, read which is something you seem have trouble with since you couldn't recognize the fact that I posted an article from a boxing website even though it says "FROM BOXING 24" at the top of the page.

2011/04/08 is when you joined TV. You seem to have had a lot to say in a very short time with, what, over 900 posts? obviously your post count can't make up for your lack of a boxing IQ.

I read a lot of boxing websites and Boxing 24 is just 1 of them. Name me one website that did not run an article saying Khan lost or he deserved to. Ever one of the sites I read are running similar articles about A MERE CON. Granted there are a fair share of others who feel your boy was done wrong. However, Yesterday Hatton and Froch said the right guy won and they're his countrymen.

Do I work for a packing company??? Fella, you'd be very surprised if I told you my line of work. Believe it!

ok chica.you win on points but it was close what about froch vs ward any predictions?

I see there is another thread open about this fight. I was going to post this there but since you asked for my prediction here it is:

I may be wrong but I don't think Andre Ward has lost a fight since he was 13 years old. As a pro he's  only fought top fighters like Allan Green, Edison Miranda,  Mikkel Kessler. No catch weight or weight drained fighters. He's good at changing up his stance and really good at fighting on the inside and has good defense.

Carl Froch has gotten better through the super six. His heart got him through the fight with Dirrell and the other guy he knocked out, can't think of his name right now, but they were both out boxing him throughout their matches. After that he lost to Kessler who Ward beat, but again showed a lot of heart throughout the match.

Froch has said has that he will walk through Ward’s punching power and he will out box Ward and possibly knock him out late. I think Froch is underestimating Ward's power and boxing skills.

Froch will try to fight from a distance and Ward will box and get inside and and land the more telling blows.  I Don’t think that Froch can out box Ward.  I do think it will be a good fight and would not be surprised if it goes either way.

My prediction is Ward by late TKO or UD.

[tailspin]

Sorry this was not entertaining, but painful to watch.  However, due to the interest in this fight and several requests for my analysis I have watched the entire bout again and scored it as follows

Khan         10        10        9          9          10        9          9          9          9          9          19        9          112

P          8          9          10        10        9          10        10        10        10        10        9          10        115

This takes into account the first round knockdown but no fouls as I believe there were none that were scoreable.  There were a lot of dirty but unscoreable fouls mostly by Khan…

Both fighters were crap, lack power.  Khan spent the whole fight on the bicycle and relies too much on pushes, elbows, clinches…..any good champ will take him apart.

Peterson is limited in power and ability but as it turns out he didn't need either here

This was not an exciting fight as 2 guys without power, and one who is running and fouling do not a good fight make

One star for the fight and see the score above.

Racist post removed.

According to the comentary on the True Vision re-run the computer showed that Khan made over 40 more scoring punches than Peterson. The referee was poor, too lazy, he seldom got between the fighters to separate them. He just stood back and shouted. Good referees even get between heavyweight boxers and push them apart. It is difficult to complain too much about the actual scoring but for sure the two point deduction was the main cause of Khan losing. It is debatable if Khan should have had points deducted for what he was doing as Peterson was dangerous with his head. A good referee would have been closer to the action and controlled the fight better. Still it was an entertaining fight and has been put forward as a nomination for fight of the year, again according to True Vision. I think this fight and losing will make Khan a better fighter in the future and a return will be interesting.
