I read somewhere, IBF give Peterson the title and heard he is fighting judda next. Wow, so it must be ok to take drugs in boxing + still box

 

Peterson was caught juiced up so WBA reinstated the title back. IBF I heard have peterson still champ and NO ban. What’s point of drug tests

 

I’m not bitter 1 bit about wot the IBF have done, its jus unfair in sport. Getting caught taking drugs. Lol he can keep the title and the W.

Th WBA had already sided with Khan before the drugs issue, so that's bollocks.

What's the official verdict of the contest? Still a win for Peterson?

[gavpowell]

Yep, still a win, because he never failed the tests in the run up to the first fight and GBP withdrew their appeal after the fight, so the result stands.

Cheers Gav

Can understand him being upset.

 

It is a shambles after all.

 

You cant help but think that he needs to be barred from Twitter though.

 

Even when people agree with him, and I most certainly do, he comes across as a spoiled child whose thrown the dummy out.

 

I remember back in the mid 90's when footballers first started employing media specialists to help them come across better in interviews. Everybody laughed at them, now Twitter has broken down that barrier and we get countless stupid, and in some cases offensive, comments from them.

 

If Khan was about in the 90's I honestly think people would have a very different opinion of him. You watch him on TV and he comes across fine. In some cases even humble, believe it or not, then he gets on Twitter and within 140 characters that completely erodes.
