its very easy to put it down to race tho, which is why i ignored it

i should have known it would come up and looking back i am suprised it took so long

if the thread is still about me tho, race isnt an issue

If someone has become rascist because of what a handful of people have done then they are pretty stoopid

there are nob head muslims just as there are nob head catholics and if a catholic does something terrible, it doesnt mean all catholics will
People sadly are pretty stupid though. Muslims are taking our jobs/raping our women/living off benefits/building hate mosques/forcibly converting household pets/planning to blow up the whole world, and that's only if you take in even a tenth of what gets printed in the tabloid press. It's bound to seep through & affect how people think of them & thereby Khan, who actually is just a normal British lad who happens to be Muslim.

I don't see Khan as any more arrogant than Haye or Froch, so I don't think that can be it. One thing that could justify it is when he talks about himself in the 3rd person. I don't think Khan realizes that the American accent gives the likes of Floyd & Roy Jones the swagger to pull it off, whereas done in a slightly stuttering Lancashire accent, he just sounds like a tit
