Golden Boy Wants Peterson-Khan Decision Overturned
Golden Boy Wants Peterson-Khan Decision Overturned – It was a great fight, but a controversial one. Unfortunately, controversy seems to be the common denominator for most of the bigger fights held this year.
In a conference call Tuesday, Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy Promotions, which promotes Khan, said they were appealing the decision to both the IBF and the WBA. If they can‘t get the decision overturned, they at least want a rematch scheduled as soon as possible. If a rematch is all they can get, Schaefer said they already had a date (May 19) and a location (the Staples Center in Los Angeles) picked out.
Schaefer opened the conference call saying his gripe wasn’t with Peterson or his camp. It was with the officiating. And it was the “worse case of home cooking I have ever seen,” he said.
Khan said from now on he’ll think twice before going into someone’s backyard to fight.
“I hope Lamont gives me the rematch I think I deserve,“ Khan said on the call. “I was judged unfairly.”
