Good to go. Another point off.Referee Joe Cooper in Boxing Controversy

After watching the fight replay I'm convinced the referee made bad mistakes and consequently lost Khan his two belts. However did Khan do enough to justify a win?

Armchair boxing fans can of course pontificate all they like about "effort" and "wanting to win" but put you in a ring buddy and you would shit yourself. Especially faced with either the speed and agility of Khan or the remorseless marching forward of Peterson and his thunderous right hook.

Having two points deducted for pushing was ultimately what made the difference for Khan who lost on a split decision. A rematch is likely and Khan will win easily. Get Your Bet On!
