The Khan supporters had no reason to get up there were the fighters were.. You're not supposed to be up there, jackass, go stand with the rest of the fans.
Khan KTFIR Paulie, which bears out a reality talk show of sorts for the latter, staged in a beauty parlor somewhere in NYC.
I'm not a fan of Paulie but I hope he KOs Khan now. F&%k "Khan's Army" coming into my country with all that thug BS. And obviously the reporter was referring to the fact that the clown who tried to blow up Times Square was a Pakistani.
Lou Di Bella what a pussy, did anyone watch the weigh in? Hahahahah when news first broke about this I was expecting fireworks, it was fuck all ffs, little bit of pushing and shoving the way Di Bella was reacting you would think someone had just stamp all over his head and his entire team, now I have just read Di Bella wants fines and suspensions for team " Khan " but it's ok for Paulie who has come out and said he threw out a few kicks and kicked Khan aswell, so Lou what punishment for your man? I suppose i can sympathise with Paulie maybe he was thinking with the amount of power that comes from his fist he would try a few kicks.
Dont mess with homies from Bolton, England. Some bad ass guys up those ways. I wouldn't venture into Bolton if somebody paid me, I'ld get my head blown off!
I hope that is sarcasm Lefty, but not 100% sure when it comes to you mate. :)Quote:

Apparently they are rapping for Khan's ring entrance...joy :rolleyes:Quote:

But when Khan's team wear their Pakistani colours they are making an intimidating, terrorist supporting, American hating battle cry.
I hate the way the media interperate things for their own ends.
Look at the Wooten Basset march.
When us Brits mourned the deaths of British soldiers in Wooten Basset,it was all about respect for those brave men, solidarity with their familys and a show of unity against war and aggression.
But when the Muslims wanted to march through the same town to mourn the deaths (many times more as well) of their Arab bretheren killed in Afgansistan and Iraq they were ' evil' ,'fundamentalist', 'radical ', 'hate driven' so much so that a new law was rushed through to prevent them exercising their freedom of speech and incidently was supported by virtually the whole country.
The media and public bias in terms of interperating the behaviours of both sides is frankly staggering imo.
Haha, too right! ;DQuote:

I have absolutely no issues with Khan's team wearing flags nor having the name Khan army. Khan army just sounds silly to me, but that is their choice. The issue I do have though is that if Malignaggi was told to have only 5 people up there and Khan had around 20 all thugged up, then that's probably not right. They certainly shouldn't have been getting involved in the weigh in. It's none of their business! Just as in the ring come fight night it is none of their business!
Some of those comments in the article make America look like one seriously paranoid police state. Well hello, stop bombing Pakistan and stop invading countries arbitrarily! It just comes back and bites you harder and people are getting testy about a boxers fans who happen to be Muslim and displaying support for their fighter? Please. :rolleyes:
Apples and oranges dude. First off, those American kids were in their own country. They didn't go to Pakistan or some other country and try to rile things up. I don't think DiBella or anybody else gave a damn what Khans people were wearing, they had a problem with them all bum-rushing the stage like a bunch of thugs. And the writer was simply pointing out that the citizens of NY are on edge right now, and the wrong person might not be too keen on seeing some Pakistani militant clothing and the some Muslims acting like thugs.Quote:
