Respect to Haroon Khan

i actually think Haroon is much better than Amir I cant wait for him to go pro lets just hope he has a chin and learns to use reach and boxing ability better

 

Well obviously good enough to win a medal.

 

Well Team GB your bigoted selection policies have been brought to light today
:deal

 

What's so amazing about this? He's fighting for Pakistan. Well done to him though...in the same way I'd say well done to every other guy that picks up a medal.

 

why if its not cool with you your allowed to through ye intelligent sarcasm at me and my name is Stephen Mr esb

 

and if yafai wasn't injured he would have won a medal, so what is your point?

 

Yafai's injury the GB selectors chose Stubbs to replace him and he got beaten in his first bout by Selby, And Selby lost to Khan.

So basically Khan is better than the replacements they chose, Anyway it doesnt matter Khan got the medal he wanted.

 

Ireland has no muslim fighters. They are racist. :-(

**** off to the racist bigots who run Irish amateur boxing.

 

Yep. The selectors should have demanded that a low ranked English amateur fighter leave his decision to fight for Pakistan when the first choice fighter fell ill.

 

Well done 100%.

Went out there and gave it his all. Can take nothing away from him. Deserves his medal.

 

can some1 post up the vid

 

Well done, a big blow to bigotry.

 

:huh

I'll tell Ireland black light-heavy Tommy McCarthy that its been a mistake and the bigots aint picked him and he doesnt need to turn up for the next round! :good

We have enough bigots fighting amongst ourselves in Ireland with having time to start picking on the Muslims as well! :hey

 

I hope you're not suggesting that this thread is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to have a go at Brits and the English.

Myself I have no doubt that the Irish man who started this thread (and the Irishman who started a near identical thread on the same topic) are nothing more than huge Haroon fans wishing to show great respect, in the British forum, for him winning a bronze for Pakistan at the mighty Commonwealth games.

 

pretty sad and desparate angle to try and make this an Irish thing!

This isnt a pop at the "Brits and the English", its a slam in the face for the bigots on here, including Nutjob especially, that gave the kid nothing but abuse for merely following his dream.

Saying he was ****, calling him a traitor and to stay in Pakistan etc - one in the eye for the toss pots!

Defend them if you want. :good
