khan was poor last night. don't know what he was complaining about. he fought right into pietersen's hands whether he was deducted points or not.

how one of the judges scored it 114-11 to khan is beyond me.

Couldnt understand why he didnt keep the first round pace up.

Pietersen was set up for 12 but khan could of had him, khan didnt have a game plan for him coming in low all the time.

He can't complain, it was a decent fight that was close, but I felt that Peterson was more aggressive and a lot of judges will favour that approach. The loss might actually mean that a fight with Mayweather is now more likely as he only seems to want to fight when he thinks he will win easily.

thats khan for ya.
he isnt a bad boxer but he's by no means a great fighter.this defeat has been coming for him a while now.he wouldnt have went the distance against mc closkey a while back and he obviously hasnt upped his game.
the big thing for khan now is does he take the rematch or push on up a weight?.

Clearly can complain and should. That referee was as straight as Uri Gellar's cutlery set.

Biggest fix I've seen in years.

I mean three recounts, one after the result was annouced.  ???

Good ole boxing.  Pick stuff up.  Put it in a box.  Maybe seal the box.  Pick more stuff up.  Put it in some other boxes.

Oh wait.

Spot on, total fix. The only way he would have won would have been to KO him.

If you follow BJJ with all the submissions etc then you would know they are not "shagging"on the canvas.

UFC is kicka*s. Prefer it over boxing anyday.

You had to be a mad warrior to be a UFC fighter.

Obviously i don't follow it because i don't like it..

Maybe i haven't seen enough MMA to pass judgement (i have seen a fair few fights though) I was just explaining one of the reasons i haven't liked what i've seen of it so far.

But this is a boxing thread, comments like "Boxing are for noobs, UFC is the sh!t right now" Need to stay out of a thread which is blatantly intended for boxing fans. Do we not have an MMA thread on here for that?
