Khan "NOT" hated "HIS" fans are hated!

Moral of this thread:

To earn the respect of all, be a great boxer but don't attract a big loyal following.

Prime example: Juan Manuel Marquez, great P4P boxer that only 4900 fans came to watch in Las Vegas in his last fight.

No wonder boxing is a dying sport. Fan enthusiasm is discouraged by the few so-called "hardcore fans".

 

Khan gets his due for beating Maidana and not folding down the stretch. But he is being rushed a bit, and his insane boastings about beating PBF are a MAJOR turn off.

He needs to STFU and just fight. If he develops some more tools, he could be a problem in the future.

His fans on here are too over zealous at times as well.

 

You mean behave more like golf and tennis fans? Polo fans perhaps?

 

Us Khan fans are not stupid.

Fanboys are annoying no matter what sport or hobby they're involved in, a lot of them are grown men too which is disturbing.

 

Yeah I'm starting to think all fan boys are annoying and I'm one of them :rofl Luckily for Khan, he has no real opposite and opposing fanbase to go against them, but they get too sensitive whenever somebody criticizes Khan.
They say oh Khan has a granite chin now. Maidana hit him hard and he didn't go down, but then somebody comes by and says well he did the chicken dance and ran for a whole round because he was hurt and then they tell you, you're douchebag and need to give him respect because he's 24. Khan is a good fighter and soon to be elite, but don't go blind to him

 

Read the threads since the win, a lot of it is to wind up his fans sure, but a huge amount of posts are purely about Khan.

 

:thumbsup

 

I agree 100%. The problem here is that many who claim to be true boxing fans hate on the fanboys for doing things you mention, but display the same type of behavior when their fighter does well or when a fighter that has a fanbase they don't care for doesn't do well.

I admit I participate in the same asinine behavior, but only do so in good fun and I make sure when I say or claim something outrageous, that it can only be interpreted as a joke. I would say I'm an overzealous Pac fan at times. But it does not take away the fact that I have followed boxing for 30 years.

 

im giving my props to khan on a good solid win and perhaps his best win of his career. it ticks a box for me that he was able to survive good solid shots from a big puncher at 140 in any era. However im not gonna go overboard as khan still has work to do. If Maidana was a little more skilled as a boxer he maybe would have won tonight.

More to my main point. Khan and his fans have to forget, pack up and bury any thoughts or prospects about taking on Mayweather, Pacquiao (though they couldnt anyway) and even a Juan Manuel Marquez. He would get destroyed. Khan needs to focus on beating bradley/alexander wiinner, maybe a zab judah, juan diaz even a John Murrray and he could potentially control the 140 division for me. wait for those mentioned to retire then think about moving up to welter and who knows.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl just keepin it real
