Amir Khan Vs Lamont Peterson Rematch Set For May 19



LONDON: Amir Khan will fight Lamont Peterson on May 19 in Las Vegas after the Briton was granted his wish for a rematch after his controversial loss to the American last December, his promoter said on Thursday.
Khan lost his WBA super-lightweight and IBF light-welterweight belts in Lamont’s home city of Washington in December on a split decision having been docked two points by the referee for pushing.
His camp criticised the referee’s actions and were shocked by television replays showing a mystery man in a hat talking with a judge ringside, prompting the WBA to order a rematch.
The ‘mystery man’ was identified as Mustafa Ameen, who is an IBF volunteer helping cash-strapped boxers. He denied interfering with the judges’ scorecards. (Reuters)
