Well as a fellow Brit, i never once heard or read any of the anti semetic accusations that apparentley happened to Salita. If it had it would have been all over the news. And i wanted Salita to win, new he wouldnt, but i wanted him to.
I was one of the few that is posting that was actually at this fight. He is talking rubbish. He got boo`d yes. But in no way was there any racial tension in the arena, or outside the arena. There were Jewish people all over the building before the fight started and let me tell you, they were given the same amount of respect as everyone else. In a word he not only was outmatched, he went into the ring looking scared. He didnt want it with Khan. You could tell. Now he is making weak excuses because he got owned. It makes me sick to think that even one person might believe his lies. And what the hell is all this rubbish about muslims giving him a hard time. It was a majority white crowd you Idiots!!
mother ****er got dropped with one shot and aint dissing but even khan was shocked as he didnt even put a lot of force in it
load of bs mate, the guy chats so much crap, just look after the fight with his silly interviews. the security was huge in that arena, i was there and unless they went into town centre and got into some trouble which i didnt hear about then he is lying again
The whole sorry episode reminds me of when Frank Bruno KO'd an American in about 30 seconds - his record was 17-3. ''I'd hate to see what those 17 were like'' There was an interesting article on him before the fight, during which Bob Arum and Lou DiBella mentioned their promotional deals with him..... they tried to make matches with Cotto and Malingaggi in 2007 but Salita wasn't interested (on financial grounds). Yeah right :-(
I felt sorry for Salita when Khan sparked him out, he really didn't know what hit him. and If what Salita said was indeed true, then shame on those few bigots. But in all honesty, I really find it hard to believe he was lacking the security like he claims.
Unbelieveable!!! How can he come out with this crap??? I was ringside at the fight and quite honestly nothing happened. Of course the crowd booed him, a passionate crowd would boo any foreign challenger in a top of the bill fight!
