Prescott fight. Tell me where the boos are here?

Listen to this against Barrera. You saying Khan doesn't have supporters?

Khan support pisses all over the boo boys.

I disagree.

Taken from Sky Sports website:
Bizarrely Khan seemed to be booed by some as he made his way into the ring. Barrera meanwhile was cheered to the rafters as Manchester became Mexico for one night only. But it didn't last. As much as the Manchester fight fans love a legend, they also love a fighter who is good and game. And the boy from Bolton was both.

The Last Word: Racist fans and bitter spats as love is floored - Others, More Sports - The Independent

He was also booed at the Prescott fight and he also loudly booed at the Pacquiao - Hatton weigh-in, by british fans.

By the way, i'm not saying he is without support, he clearly isn't. But i wouldn't go as far as saying his support pisses all over the boo-boys.

Are you kidding? You'd rather take the word from some report than use your own ears?

Listen to the last link i posted. That's the Prescott fight from the crowds perspective. Where are the boos?

Bizarrely Khan seemed to be booed by some. Exactly, SOME.

For your argument to mean anything it would need to be about 50/50. It's more like 95-5 in favour of Khan.

And as for the Hatton weigh-in, Mosley and Marquez were booed too (Jaz was there), because they were pissed-up Brit yobbo football fans not proper boxing fans.

Right, and obviously your boos were not because you were supporting Barrera but because you don't like "paki's"

[OumaFan]

Big time yes. I just want to see Missy and Miles grow more and more obsessed as the years go by. I don't really care if he does well in and of it itself.

I've yet to go to a Boxing venue where the majority aren't pissed up football fans so i'm not sure what that's got to do with anything. Plus if we're using your brit yobbo footballing fans terminology, it's understandable that Marquez and Mosley got booed because they aren't English. Khan is.

I've never said that he has any irrational hate on this board, but i'd imagine this board or the opinion of similar boxing forums probably represent around 10% if that, of an attending crowd.

I wouldn't rather take some report than use my own ears. I've heard for myself mate. I know i'm not the only one who's heard it. It's also something that's been mentioned a fair few times in Boxing News (fight reports). Hell, reading Youtube comments will give you a decent idea.

*awaits Fenster's handpicked youtube comments*

Sorry mate, it's going to take more than a couple of handheld youtube videos to convince me that the support for Khan far outweighs the distain for him.

When other fighters get booed is that racism too?

Hate to say it fenst but the amount of times i used to here fellas in a pub hoping hamed/khan would get beat and then follow it up with its because of their race

Where black fighters are concerned we are way past that. Bruno and been were beloved in this country.

But khan still endlessly raises the is he british 1st or muslim 1st? A lot of his travelling fans are from the pakistani/british community and do tend to chant "pakistan" quite a lot.

Retarded argument i know. Amir doesnt strike me as either arrogant or unpatriotic and while he lacks the charisma to become a household hero just like calzaghe, we should still be fully behind one of our boys reaching his true potential

I'm not surprised considering you hang around with BNP supporters.

From a boxing perspective the racist hate for Khan comes from a small minority. That's my point. Whether Khan was a boxer or not ignorant racists would still hate him. That SHOULD NOT be confused with boxing fans that don't like him for a particular reason.

Once again - ALL famous successful fighters have both lovers and haters.

Wow slow down. I never said the people who boo him are racist.

I said that from experience i believed racism was a factor in some peoples judgement. And i stand by that statement, because it's something that i've witnessed....on several occassions unfortunately.

I understand what you're saying.. but it's pretty obvious SOME peoples hate for Khan is due to racism. I think this argument is lazy.

From a boxing perspective the racist hate for Khan comes from a small minority. That shouldn't be confused with genuine boxing fans booing him because they dislike a particular thing about him - style, attitude, image, way he's promoted, rooting for his opponent etc.

Again.. All famous fighters get haters.
