    I heard some people are racist to Amir over in the UK because he's "asian". He's beaitng up an irish kid this time. That can trigger a brawl.

    Many of Amirs haters are jealous p a k istani people, moreso than the irish, mind you.

    He's beat up irish lads before, and that didn't "trigger" any outrageous brawls.

    Yeah! I visited Ireland last november. Northern Ireland to be exact and I must say the people there where the friendliest I've ever met.

    Yup.

    Anyway, the Irish are well behaved people. They're more likely to give credit where it's due and commend Khan if he wins.

    thats bull**** i know a lot of people from ****stani backrounds and ive never seen anything but support for him and thats including at his fights aswell. Ive seen a fair bit of rascist hate for him since he turned pro though, not loads dont get me wrong, but it is there. Unfortunatley Islamaphobia is a big issue these days

    Irish people are not anti Asian- not sure about British people? we might not like English the odd time! we will have a party regardless thats for sure

    It is not bull**** at all, I worked in a call centre with approx 200-300 ****stani origon lads all top lads and 80% of them hated Khan this was around the time of the Barerra fight they all came in on the monday gutted calling the fight a fix.

    I'd say he had 100% backing as an amature. When he went pro he began professing his greatness too early and people didn't like it.
