To make a country proud you have to beat well known respected opponents. Salita was hardly that was he now. Fair play on Khan getting the job done quickly, but it was a filler opponent for an easy payday. There is no need to go overboard on it.

It's like Calzaghe beating Manfredo and saying "Well done, Calzaghe, You made Britain proud". It would be quite an absurd thing to say.
