Attention wise, how do Khan fans feel about being nudged a bit out of the UK picture?

    One thing that mystifies me is Khan 'haters' will accuse Khan 'nuthuggers' of them playing the race card, but these Khan 'haters' always mention that all Khan's fans are asian (talk about playing the race card) when this is not true!

    Most of Khan's fans are white, if you see the people in the arena and those who buy his PPV's it is quite evident, no way would he get even half the PPV buy or half the crowds if his fans were only asians.

    At the moment Khan is the no.2 talked about fighter in UK, Froch stock is rising but is still a bit off.

    Forch's stock will rise again come the build up to the Ward fight, he will lose but won't get KO'ed and so his stock won't take too much of a hit, bit like Hatton vs Mayweather; Hatton lost convincingly but his stock went through the roof due to the way he fought.

    Froch won't reach the heights of Haye/Khan popularity IMO but with big British fights in the UK not after mid night he could become a pretty decent name.

    Khan's stock in the UK is becoming stagnant somewhat, fighting on Primetime and in the early hours but expect him back on SKY soon.

    But Khan's stock in America is rising and rising, overall Khan may actually be the biggest name in British boxer.

    His religion is a legit reason for not supporting him.

    Coming up to 5 years ago Matthew Hatton went away from home, gave away weight and still went the full 12 with Canelo.

    I hope for Khan's sake and reputation he at the very least matches that achievement by Matthew Hatton.

    As for Khan being nudged out the British scene, he thinks he is beyond the British scene, he can't sell out small venues in the U.S, his fan base is nowhere near as large as people pretend and he is delusional and arrogant.

    Khan thinks this fight with Canelo is a "super fight". Well It is for him but in reality he is just the "opponent".

    You racist piece of ****, you think you're some politician or policy maker. You are a nobody mate, your xenophobic attitude is pathetic you loser. You are a disgrace to this country, you're probably illiterate and a benefit seeker who is unemployed due to a lack of qualifications you crack head. Get off this forum and crawl back into your council house.

    Haha, you are a xenophobe. I am not angry nor hateful, I just do not like people who are prejudice, please do not demonise one person based on his religion as you are generalising and that is very unfair. If you dont like him then that is your opinion and you are entitled to it but to bring religion into it is no excuse. He is a boxer and a boxer first, there is no link between sports and religion and nor should they be. Sorry for the previous outburst but please rationalise what you are trying to say.
