The District of Columbia City Council plans to hold a public hearing to clear up any confusion surrounding the December 10 title bout between Lamont Peterson and Amir Khan.

The Washington Examiner is reporting that At-Large Councilmember Vincent Orange will hold a hearing on February, 3 to air out any differences. Orange chairs the Committee on Small and Local Business Development, which oversees the DC Boxing and Wrestling Commission.

WTF? Does everyone feel like they need to have their few cents to add to this? STFU! No one even knows who you are Mr. whatever your name or whatever you do is (Mr. Orange, is that the brother of Mr. Pink?). Here's a good piece of advice, it had nothing to do with you so stop tryin to act important and like you have something to say. Probably can't even spell BOXING.

What a massive waste of D.C. taxpayers' money.

Exactly comment #3! What a waste of money! Why in the hell is the government involved in boxing at all? Fix the roads, pay the teachers more, but don't waste taxpayer's money on this stuff! Disgraceful!
