    You get ****s everywhere mate.... not specific to any one community... I remember at the Kotelnik fight, I saw some middle aged white women wearing 'Khan Army' T-Shirts...with a small Pakistani flag on the back of em, fantastic :good

    I like Khan and his race is irrelevant to my critisms of him, anyone who critisises him based on the fact that he is ethnic decent is ****ing stupid. Boxing is boxing, its not about colour or religion.

    I hate him because of the shite he spouts. Nothing to do with his race.

    After the MAB fight he claimed it was easy, yet a fight never even started because of the cut. Have some respect for a ATG for **** sake.

    He also got beat by a nobody, to compare his loss to a bum, to a loss between greats fighting each other is a joke.

    He hasnt faught a capable fighter ever, MAB is to old, and kotelnik and salita suck. Salita is a complete bum.

    If he can get past a power puncher ok, but I cant see that happening, when he gets caught on that chin again he will go down. There nthing he can do about it.

    This, definitely. A lot of my friends and more casual boxing fans always comment on how i used to hate Khan, which is fair because i wasn't his biggest fan. They might have thought this to be racially motivated - but it wasn't.. i just didn't think he would make it due to his vulnerableness shown in the top video and his suspect chin.. all paired with the fact that he hadn't been tested.

    I like him now he has sorted a lot of the above out and has a decent trainer. I think this is the same story with a lot of people.. i wouldn't call a lot of it racial hate which some people are quick to point to (aswell as Khan himself with the white comment.)

    That didn't 'spark' racism, it WAS racism

    Works both ways, it's not only white folk who can be racist

    We all know in this country there is a massive hatred towards Muslims and there wasnt back in Naz's day. It doesnt help when Muslims were going to march through Wootton Bassett and things like 9/11 and 7/7.

    But you like Audley Harrison ? The guy who hasn't deserved half of the chances he's had. The guy who was so arrogant as to offer FRANK BRUNO out after one of his fights

    Yeah coz he's 10 times better and would still have achieved so much as a 17 year old Olympian.

    Audley's a likeable guy FFS :patsch He's a tube. Least you can say that Amir is young and impressionable hence some of his stupid comments. He seems genuinely alright and i've spoke to him on numerous occasions and he was sound
