I want Bradley v Peterson II as well, lets get the #1 place sorted before anything else. Heck if Khan wants a belt face Maidana for the paper WBA title and give the fans a rematch they were calling for 12 months ago.

Tottally agree with you there. Khan automatically thinks he deserves a rematch through sheer arrogance. Completely pot calling the kettle. An im losing respect for GBP now in all, because they were almost as bad in defeat as khan was. Our last two great champs were Hatton and Calzaghe, both humble and down to earth.....everything that khan isnt.

For ages I was wishing Khan to rematch Prescott, especcially the way both their careers went after that fight; Prescott being frozen out and Khan's 'fraudulent' rise to a world title. However, Prescott is way off the radar now. Khan didn't want to rematch Maidana and I hope Peterson goes off on another path and makes Khan squirm for a bit.

Since Kotelnik, I've been a big admirer of Khan's skills however I still don't like his team's arrogance. Hopefully if Peterson tells him to get fucked in an immediate rematch it will show Khan he can't always get his own way (which he has thus far). He's like a spoilt brat

Is that a bit of sarcasm in your quote khasoi-galaxy. Maidana deserved a rematch, khan didnt want it, prescott said he would fight khan again, khan didnt want it, so why should peterson bow down to khans commands. Khan is very arrogant if he dont give opponents a deserved rematch yet expects one himself.

This. i agree a rematch is something he deserves but you can't deny he has denied it to others who equally derserved it.

But under wholly different circumstances. Remember he LOST to Prescott, so a rematch would be about redemption for Khan, while Prescott would only want it for the money/exposure that Khan brings. As for Maidana, that fight was effectively a semi-final with the winner due to fight the Bradley-Alexander winner until Bradley pussied out. So Khan sought out a unification fight with Judah. The Maidana fight was close, but it was not a controversial decision with the stench of a home town robbery polluting the atmosphere around the result. Judah claimed he was cheated in their fight and demanded a rematch - should he be granted one too? Maybe Willie Limond should get one for the supposed long count? Or Mario Kindelan in a rubber match?

Peterson will fancy his chances of taking him again.

It'll happen, either immediately or after a quick defence for Lamont. Khan really does need to stfu though, some of his pr leaves a lot to be desired.

I don't think it's him as much as his team. Asif Vali always comes across as a prize clown, while I don't think any good comes from having your dad so visible and vocal.

I do see what you mean, but where was this controversial decision you are talking about?? Please don't tell me you thought Khans latest loss was in anyway controversial...it was close but he lost fair and square in my eyes....just.

Yeah, i remember his dad giving an interview after the Olympics where he described UK Sports offer to continue to fund Amir as an amateur as a "total joke"

Cheeky shit

"This guy really shouldn't be giving interviews" i thought, im amazed he still is.

A fight where one guy is deducted two points for questionable fouls that would not be punished in most other fights (I can't recall a single point being taken for pushing in another contest); where the official scorecard shows the scores being changed, a delay of 20 minutes in adding up 6 sets of ten numbers and the most experienced announcer mis-announcing the result. That could be classed as controversial. Doesn't mean to say the decision is right or wrong, just controversial.

con-tro-ver-sy - a prolonged public dispute, debate, or contention; disputation concerning a matter of opinion.

Is that not a copying error by someone who was copying down the 3 score cards onto 1 piece of paper? All the numbers look the same on that can and they are all visibly on the same piece of paper...

It may be a copying error, it may be a manual change to deliver the right result, it may be fat fingers from the commission rep who filled in the card. The fact that it is there, combined with the other issues mentioned, has resulted in a controversy.

Ok so thats 1 thing explained...Buffer seems to be losing it (Darren Baker? I think he also made a blown call in the Gary Russell Jr bout)
