Afghanistan treating their WBU "world" champion like national hero

20,000 people celebrating his victory. That's ****ing awesome, WBU or not - who gives a ****? It's boxing.

 

Yeah, because Afghanistan has so many other champions right now.

 

I got a new hero!


He is my new fifth favorite boxer, after PW, Haye, Zab, and Khan.


Allah u Akbar!

 

Can Afghan women use my **** as a rocket launcher instead?:smoke

I would love to see this WBU champion take on the UBF champion in a unification battle.

That would elevate the organisation to WBC/WBA levels.

 

This was a cool story. . Thanks for sharing. . I don't share your sentiments of making fun of the guy, and calling him a joke. . . It's good to have a sports hero, even if it's not at the real world class level. . Let them be!


Now, IMAGINE how popular AMIR KING KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN would be in ****stan! I can imagine hundreds of thousands of people in Karachi lining the streets for his grand entrance!

AMIR KHAAAAAAAAAN (and he's knocking 'em out!) AMIR KHAAAAAAAAAAAN (let me hear ya shout!)

 

:rofl It´s pretty funny

 

Its not easy to get in that level. If they want to cheer their champion let them cheer him

 

this is a great thing IMO. good for the afghani people and good for the sport in the area..... I don't care how bad he is it's a positive all the way around. good stuff.

PS: this afghani kid beats the hell of your ***** ass. he might not have fought the best opposition whatsoever but amassing a pro record like his is not something any of you punks could accomplish especially coming fromt he type of adversity and non boxing locale that this kid came up with. props to him

 

My god. At least Jack Johnson got a damn train.

 

The WBU may not be the WBC, the IBF, the WBA or even the WBO. But it is a hell of an accomplishment to make it as a pro in this sport even at the prospect/contender level.

So for any of you "so-called" boxing fans mocking this really ought to ask your selves what is the greatest thing you've ever accomplished.

As far as I am concerned anything that can help, inspire, or set an example of young people to strive for is great.

The Afghan people have been through alot, some times its not about what you have, but how far you have come.


I say congratulations to him and his country men, and good job on promoting Boxing to your country... :thumbsup
