I am 100% convinced that there are people in the UK that don't like him simply because he's a Pakistani Muslim.
:**** i agree with him imo ricky hatton gives anyone the reason to boo him. talks in 3rd person, is confident which is fine but ppl dont like it. i think ppl in england cant take it when a non english fighter sportman succeeds imo. how come ricky hatton-froch and kevin mitchell dont get that stick,. racism still exists in 2009
There certainly are and I don't think anyone can dispute that. Khan pisses me off with his air of entitlement. He really hasn't done that much yet (as a Pro) and is being handed opportunities many boxers can only dream of. He needs to ignore the racist arseholes, appreciate what he's got and concentrate on proving himself in the ring. I work with a Pakistani muslim and he is one of the nicest, most intelligent, hard working, dignified and humble people it has been my pleasure to encounter. Khan could learn a lot from him.
What a load of shite. Its because of his attitude in that he thinks hes the second coming and been fast-tracked to the world title. Look at Bruno, Lewis, Eubank, Benn, Watson, Conteh etc.
If he was white he would have no fans, hes ****. He's only got the fans he has now because every indian is up his arse
Id have to agree with Khan If you dont live in Britain you wouldnt understand the sick racist abuse he has ben recieving, its ben disgusting When I watch him tonight there will still be racist chanting in the clubs that I go, he's a nice kid with alot of quality, but just because he is a proud Muslim a small minority of British people will want him to lose
He should have said that he would have been a superstar if HE WASNT MUSLIM! Thats what the problem is. Not the colour of his skin.. The racist hardcore (and its a minority!) out there see him as a threat, and outsider because he doesnt go down to the local for a pint and because he goes to the mosque for friday prayers.. Thats my slant on things..
YOU DUMB ****. India and Pakistan cannot stand each other - they've fought at least two wars and they are two separate counties. Amir Khan is a Pakistani brit. Lesson over for today now go home and have a biscuit u uneducated, ignorant, sad, worthless, ****ing cum stain. :hi:
