    :happy

    Exactly, some people make a habbit out of playing the race card and just like the boy who cried wolf it eventually backfires on them . According to the toothfairy I am a BNP troll who likes Naz, David Haye, JC, Eubank, RJJ, PBF, Ali, Foreman, Tyson, Holyfield etc etc.

    So you are happy to make accusations based on guesswork and supposition? Not a lot of point in continuing then, is there?

    Where the **** is the racism turd brain ?

    Khan is not the Caliphate is he ? Not liking Khan does not equate to being a racist.

    It might be worthwhile if idiots like you bothered to check posts by others to see whether they disliked boxers because of their background or whether they simply disliked a boxer on the basis of his ability and management. I guess you are not intelligent enough to do that. Far easier to point fingers.

    I have no time for AAA. Hang on I am a racist and BNP troll, AAA is a British chap who happens to be white....maybe his g/f or wife is not white...ah I am saved I can hate AAA and still keep true to the BNP if I assume his g/f is not white.

    He's not representing Islam on his trunks. Kurt I'm sure you know crescent is on the Pakistani flag, the green and white are also on it, he's just representing the Pakistani heritgate. You're reading too much into it in my view.

    Yes his attitude and making statements without thinking.

    Yes Naz had an attitude but he backed it up in the ring and was a superb boxer. He poked fun in his opposition but it was done in a comical manner. He never tried to play the statesman. Khan is protected and can talk **** so people do not like him. This in no way equates to racism as the same posters who dislike Khan have all the time in the world for Witter, Naz, AAA, PBF, JCC, Bhops etc.

    Look who has had most stick over the years. It is Audley and the reason for the stick is because he was arrogant and the BBC paid him £1m to fight tomato cans.

    Don't know buddy. I thought they used the Crescent in the Pak flag because it is an Islamic Republic and this emphasises the religion. I would have though it was offensive to put such a sacred symbol on your shorts and to get sweat all over it.

    Maybe being a BNP troll I am being over politically correct.

    I'll just repeat myself the crescent of Khans trunks are representitive of Pakistani flag along with the green and white that he has.

    Its Hamed that I did not like for selling Islam as though it was a product. He had ISLAM on his trunk at the front, he came to Athan (call to prayer ) instead of ring entrance song for the Barrera fight. That to me is misrepresenting, branding selling it as though it were a product and it bothered me.

    Not necessarily. Many boxers over the years have had a huge fanbase of people who would not describe themselves as boxing fans. Frank Bruno, Mike Tyson, Naz, (to name just a few) all had an army of followers who were not true boxing fans, (as well as the genuine fight fans who liked them).
    Amir Khan is no exception.

    Depends on who you ask and how they see it. For example a villager in Pakistan might be offended, but vast majorty wont care. But fact is, Khans intent is to represent the flag and not the religion.

    Tourism. I had done India, Oman, loads of EU countries and fancied a trip to Pak. Got a Visa and went over. Enjoyed the place, people are nice and everything is so cheap (when I converted to pounds). I got over 110RS to a £ and could easily eat etc for a £1 a day. I wanted to go visit the Kalash people but I was told it was a protected area and it would take time to get permission (dont know if it is true), but I had little time so came back after Peshawar.

    Saw no boxing gyms but plenty of Snooker tables.

    You should visit the place. Very interesting country and plenty to see. Great disparity in wealth but you get that in India as well.

    You seen Anthony Smalls ring entrance against Pryce that was seriously warped. More so than Hameds entrance for MAB fight.

    thx for sharing that. I'm sure you cricket clubs though. Yeah lots to see I've been told, one place I'd really like to go are the mountains in Kashmir. I hear they have great Kebobs, Neharis, Tikka, Naans and I'm hungry now. Kalash people are very closed and they might be protected because its a very small minority.

    Massive Naans and very cheap. Preferred the Peshwari food than the Punjabi fare, they do great rice which does not look very good but is the best savoury rice I have ever had.

    Yes probably protected but I though if Palin could get in then I might be able to get in. Had similar problems when I wanted to visit Bhutan. They wanted $200 a night so I soon skipped on that.
