I just dont understand the hate towards Amir and i could be wrong but can only see it being because of his skin color! Why else beat down a upcoming British prospect and cheer for lesser fighters?
Actually its
A) Because of his white promoter
B) Because of his spoon fed opponents


You need to read the thread again pal. The only person trying to bring skin colour into the topic is you with this S***...."Now please just support this emerging BRITISH talent with brown skin (which i know many you find hard to deal with)"

If you read the thread you will get your answer why people are not sold on the lad. All boxers his age have ambition but are not lucky enough to get the type of exposure he gets. I don't think he is half as good as the media, Amir himself and the majority of the British public thinks he is.

I must be a racist

Thanks, thats exactly my point. Not all BRITISH boxers are lucky enough to get the coverage Amir does, so when a talent comes along like Amir who is lucky enough to get media exposure we shouldbe supporting him all the way. I cant remember the last time a BRITISH fighter had so much media coverage like Amir does, so shouldnt we as a nation be fully behind to show the rest of the world we have some world class boxing talents?? Forgods sake look how long its taken ricky hatton, calzaghe to be recognized as genuine p4p fighters as they have been slagged off all there careers by people like you guys. Mayby if khan gets enough coverage it will rub off on the rest of our fighters??

Did i here you say spoon fed opponents??, jesus christ the lads 20 years old, what the fuck do you want. Hes on his 14 pro fight jeez. If Amirs been fighting spoon fed opponents who has your Hero Thaxton been fighting?? you seem to forget that Lawtons last fight was against Thaxton!!! Thaxtosn British champ so the real question is what the fuck is Thaxton doing fighting Lawton?? like i said before you woudnt be satisfied until they throw him in a cage with some hungry siberian tigers!!!

Finally the race issue i throw in is absalutly genuine, after reading threads on this forum after the willie limmond fight and on bbc and a few others, a large majority of people were disgusted that Amir khan had a british flag alongside with his home nations flag , paksitan. What is the problem with that, is he not allowed to show support for his mother land?? I dont get your hatred towards him, hes a nice, down to earth lad whos representing this country, hes not cocky or arrogant so why hate. Remeber " THE SKY'S THE LIMIT NOT THE LIMITS THE SKY" so, so what if hes ambitiouse, if man kind warent ambitiouse where would we be? you could kiss the flag on the moon good by!!
