Khan gets hated because he is seriously overhyped and because of his level of competition.

I was never impressed with his victory over Barrera who was clearly way past it any way but Khan still didn't win it fairly.

I found it a bit of a coincedence that the fight was stopped after 5 rounds, which would mean it would go to the cards and Khan was clearly ahead on the cards The thing is the cut was no different in the 1st than it was in the 5th. I feel that if Barrera was able to keep those early rounds competitive that fight would of continued.

Another funny thing is the Kotelnik thing. Khan said Kotelnik is currently the worst champion on all divisions. The next thing you know His first title shot is against Kotelnik and supposedly Kotelnik has become a great fighter.
