    This is stupid. How does a British boxing star going to the US, applying for a working Visa, VERY CLEARLY for work get delayed like this.

    Ricky Hatton sure as hell didnt have problems like this.

    I think Khan may have a point, it probably is because the man is a muslim or asian.

    usually it pisses me off when boxers bring up the race card, but this time its doesnt make sense it might be the case, joe calz, ricky hatton didnt have probs as far as i know, but then again did naseem hamed have problems???

    i think us government maybe just want's to be certain that khan is for the reason he says he is, however it shouldnt take this long, the guy is a household name in uk.

    oh yeah totally forgot about that, its pretty obvious khan isnt a terrorist or anything like that, stupid to reject him, as far as i know they rejected him becuase of his driving offences and even that was just a minor case of speeding as far as i know, so even that doesnt make sense.

    Khan is an accident waiting to happen. If Malignaggi as much as wobbles his legs i will **** myself laughing.

    Khan needs to strap a few Naan breads around his chin.

    Geoffrey Hatton was left unable to walk without the aid of a stick after being hit by Amir Khan's car
    The man knocked down on a pelican crossing by a BMW driven by boxer Amir Khan has died at the age of 57.
    Geoffrey Hatton's widow Moyra said yesterday that he had been "a broken man" following the accident two years ago in which he suffered a badly broken leg.
    Unable to return to work as a result of his injuries, the former foundry worker spiralled into depression and had to sell his home.
    Mrs Hatton, 72, said she was convinced her husband would still be alive today had it not been for the accident.
    Married for 30 years, she added: "My husband never recovered from the crash, physically or mentally.
    "Geoff was a really happy-go-lucky person before the accident. But it changed him. He became depressed and got worse each month. He had worked all his life then he was told he wouldn't work again."
    In the wake of these problems, he turned to drink, said Mrs Hatton

    it's obviously the reason. some don't like the race card because they don't want to admit the problem exist, but with all the attacks from muslims and asians in america, then america have to be very aware from applicants with backgrounds from that area.

    Why did he went to Canada?
    And what is he doing there in the last crucial week(s) before this fight?
