I don't dislike Khan.
I don't like the idea of a millionaire prospect fighting a no-name on PPV though. So was very pleased to see a whole bunch of greedy conners get well and truly booted in the nuts.![]()

3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Him calling out the top lightweights when he can't get past domestic level. Ducking Thaxton and Romanov. Having a glass jaw. His last fight was aired on PPV, pure robbery.
With Kahn it was obvious from day one he had severe inadequacies in terms of his chin.
Yet matchmaking allowed him to continue without suffering the consequences. The soft touches Kahn was fed became apparent and the boxing faithful were and still are disgustred when forced to listen to his claims of greatness.

Thinking that he's rubbish is not the same as disliking him. Personally I quite like him and I'd love to see him go and have a hugely successful career, not least because there's nobody else on the horizon as far as British boxing is concerned. This will be impossible however due to the fact that his jaw is constructed out of the finest crystal. So when all the hype came into contact with reality it invited a certain amount of scorn and derision, which is quite understandable considering his past (and current) statements re. winning world championships etc.
Balls
I'm in this camp.
From what I hear he's a decent guy, and he was giving a lot of exposure to boxing in the mainstream in britain. But ppv took the piss, and it was satisfying to see him get a bit of a reality check.
I actually hope he does come back better, so long as he genuinely progresses and that the public isn't conned to four years of ppv against stiffs while they're being sold as world beaters. Just a bit of honesty and admit he'll be learning at a couple steps below world level until he's ready to step up again.
Its not just this site, its every site. Thats the truth. Oh except Amirs.

Not sure about this site but practically every person i have spoken to about him (who live near me) don't like him because he is Asian. That is always the first reason they don't like him. Then they tend to add on the fact that he is arrogant and he's fought bums.
Obviously that's not a great advert for Leeds as a town but that's just the way it is around here. I started a thread about it around 18 months ago and got shot down as the above was apparently a ridiculous reason and therefore couldn't possibly be true. I agree it is a ridiculous reason and believe me, it is true! It's shit and i can't stand that way of thinking....but as i say, i can only speak of where i live and i have spoken to a lot of people about Khan and have pretty much got the same response.
also i think it is how much money he has earnt already for what he has done, cant blame him for that tho
Ive never disliked Khan per se,Ive allways taken a wait and see attitude toward him
I don't understand all the hate directed at him either. He hasn't said or done anything that hundreds of other prospects haven't said before him. I understand disliking Warren, and I think a lot of the anger is due to that, but I also wonder if a lot of it is due to racial/religious reasons (though no one would admit it). Is it also possible that he reminds people of Hamed somehow?
All this gloating etc. that has happened since he got KO'd has actually caused me to start cheering for Khan, even though I've seen 1 1/2 of his fights and know next to nothing about him. I'm hoping he can bounce back and win a title, proving all his detractors wrong.
I don't really understand all the anger about the PPV either. If you don't agree with it, then don't buy it and vote with your wallet, it's pretty fucking simple. There are ways to watch those fights without paying for them anyways.
I think thats pretty strong comment and wrong one at that what has race got to do with it ? just because few idiots think that way doesn't mean *alot* of people think that way the fact is Amir Khan is an arrogant moron saying he could beat Floyd Mayweather over 4 rounds plus his 1.5 percent body fat or whatever it was
And please don't tell me Amir Khan has no saying in the match making its not like he is forced to fight a certain fighter if he wanted to fight a big name he could have easily have fought one the fact is Amir Khan has been wrapped up in cotton wool since day one all of his opponents couldn't crack an egg and as soon as he fought his first live opponent who could bang he lost..........
And its nothing to do with race i just don't like him end of and Amir Khan/Frank Warren have been conning the public it actually made me feel a bit sick when i see Amir Khan posing with all great fighters on a poster behind him.
