Did Khan get knocked down in his first fight?

Hard to tell but this is a better early warning sign...

hits his shoulder.





he was tagged by komjathi by a good right hand left hook when he stuck out his chin while in a corner looked very fragile.

 

It's a cuff around the shoulder by the looks and sends him down. Could of been classed as a authentic knockdown but it wasn't a shot really so ref did right not to give it as KD.

 

was just looking at the comments on that youtube clip of khan v watson. i never thought the khan-hate was really racially motivated but reading that stuff basically confirms the theory. pretty shocking to be honest.

 

Thing is Khan isnt coming out wit that Muslim bull**** himself, I always said why people hate Khan is mostly to do with his race.

 

People hate Khan because he is a ****. Unfortunetly alot of people hate Pakistani's too.

 

Did'nt khan say "i'd be a superstar if i was white" . Khans been told to shut his mouth earlier in his career, hes quite capable of talking racially i think. Also his fans are a disgrace, you want racism go to one of his fights and look at a large section of his fans.

 

bet there are fighters you like that are far more ****ish than khan. (not saying that you are racist at all but i just don't think he's more ****ish than then next boxer)

 

Nah he is pretty much the biggest **** in the sport. I am a fan of his boxing ability though.

 

Cor, Khan actually looks really young there - he's grown up a fair bit since then. His style has changed quite a bit too, he used to have his hands down more and pull back from shots, but with his dodgy punch resistance that was never going to last.

 

On what basis?

 

the Khan hate is part jelousy/part racism. it cannot be denied.

the DeGale hate is also part jelousy/part he is an absolute twat

 

Youtube is a very bad way of judging the public. For a start most average boxing fans like Khan, the casual fan who will buy a ticket when he is fighting in their home town (such as Newcastle last time out) supports him. The people who follow boxing properly and dislike him do in the main due to hype, the Warren machine and the way he appeared to be so disrespectful to the likes of Thaxton before he had achieved anything himself as a pro.

Youtube is full of twats mouthing off in the most offensive way they can think of no matter the clip.
Is Leona Lewis a hate figure? No. But look at a clip of her singing live and scroll through the comments and there will be numerous racist slurs, posters calling her a tranny etc. Then you will notice that some of these sad ****s have bothered to replicate their comments on multiple clips.

Likewise with Khan or anyone else who gets **** from a few people, they will trawl through YT to add their bile onto every clip they can find because they are pathetic, attention seeking ****s.

Khan also has the genuine problem of having a lot of racist, British pakistani lads following him who have no desire to mingle with other fans and support the undercard guys etc. That is why pro boxers like Jeff Thomas (who is mixed race) stopped supporting him, because even as a mixed race lad he was getting **** from a hardcore minoroty of Khans fan base who are utter pricks.

That then leads to a hardcore minoroty of white fans attending shows who go to boo Khan and be racist themselves. But by and large his fights have wide support from the people there regardless of what city it is in or what the majority racial makeup of the crowd is.

 

i'm not taking sides here, but i remember reading in the newspaper years ago that soon after this fight was over a bunch of asian lads who came in the fight wearing the colors of the union jack and pakistan were beaten by a large group of white english lads, i also had a friends who attended khans ammature fight against watson and they said that the white fans and pakistani fans were at each others necks trading racial slander throughout the fight they also said allot of khans fans came in wearing shirts that said ''khan only fights for the muslims and islam'' and it probably sparked the racism that night
