The "mystery man" at the centre of the latest controversy surrounding Amir Khan's defeat by Lamont Peterson has revealed he will attend a hearing into the fight later this month and insists he has "nothing to hide".

Mustafa Ameen, dubbed "the Hatman", hit the headlines when Khan questioned his ringside presence during the fight. Ameen said: "So you are questioning if I did something to harm my Muslim brother [Khan]? May almighty Allah protect me from what you assert."
