    Khan wouldn't be given credit if he was fighting Barrera, Jesus and the KFC Colonel at the same time and still won.. honestly, I think he will always be hated on. Part of the reason is probably due to Frank Warren, I mean Hatton was also labelled a 'protected fighter' for a while when he was with Warren.. maybe Khan would do better to sign with a different promoter, e.g golden boy.
    I always thought that there was always an underlying racial or ethnic aspect that everyone is afraid to bring to the surface. BUt I dont live there so I couldnt say.
    I don't know why people (mainly non-Brits) keep saying that, I really don't.

    Fair play. Maybe I am justmore cynical than most. That is good if it is not the case.

    I think the lack of support for Kahn has fuck allto do with his muslim roots, its more due to the fact he has done fuck all and has it all at the age of 22 and the fact he thinks he can beat everyone in the world,i dont mind him that much i read his book and in truth comes across very humble guy.

    That's one of my main gripes. Everything handed on a plate, hyped up to buggery then he gets KO'ed, has a piss easy fight and gets Barrera, the winner to fight for a world title probably.

    We have guys that could do a lot better if they were lucky enough to get such exposure as Khan has had. On top of that he still thinks he is the shit! Hope the chinny bastard gets shown up in brutal fashion by my Barrera
