Amir Khan wants to be the kind of fighter boxing fans care about. Before his fight with Lamont Peterson, Khan was throwing around the biggest names in the sport as more-than-just possible future opponents: Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather were in his crosshairs.
Since his majority decision loss to Peterson in December, though, Khan has taken aim at far lesser competition.
In a twitter tirade that would make internet conspiracy message board enthusiasts proud, the former world titlist resorted to posting screenshots of an infamous ?man in a black hat? sitting next to one of the fight?s officials. Khan goes on to post picture after picture, and video after video, with comment after comment, calling out WBA supervisor Michael Welsh, as well as anyone else who could have possibly been involved in the so-called conspiracy to rob poor Khan of his title in order to give it to underappreciated American, Lamont Peterson.
Please.
If you haven?t seen it, essentially his tweets show a man moving around the front two rows behind and next to Welsh, and at one point midway through the fight he appears to reach in front of him.
Just shut-up, Amir. I mean it.
