    His fans will tell you its racism. It isn't this because some of Britains finest boxers have come from ethnic minorities. Look at Naz for instance

    Khan's problem is simple. He is not boxing fan friendly.

    Khan won Silver at the Olympics and through his own doing and that of his business people they decided to maximize his high profile with the general public.

    They had him on British television chat shows, doing talks on morning television. Talkin nice, coached all the BS that people who go on those sorts of tv shows say, the same old stuff. He created a fake personality, a BS one. Just like almost all the slime on TV have to do in order to work on it. Super nice, repeating the same old crap over and over. Try to appear humble hard working, non arrogant sportsmen. Just like they all do.

    Problem is, THIS SPORT IS BOXING. Boxing fans are not the same audience as the types of cretins who watch This Morning. All the stuff that makes you good and friendly for GMTV, doesnt mean S to boxing fans. David Haye could go on and make a comment how he is gonna knock out Tyson fury for all the beautiful good looking female fans he has. The GMTV / This morning
    people would be appalled and shocked, boxing fans would just laugh. Boxing is something that does not belong in that world. You only have to see the fact there are ring card girls still. Naz, Haye, Froch, Hatton they all do/did their stuff on nicey nice television, and even though they tone it down a little they were always pretty much the same as how they are in their boxing world

    Khan however has been groomed by his people to try to be this BS person. He isn't that person, he is arrogant, he likes to screw hot women , cheat and is like most other mid twenties guys. Boxing fans don't care that he does this if he was just himself, but if you try BS them that your someone else, this nicey nicey hard working honest humble crap, unless you really are that guy like Ricky Burns then they'll never take to you and the moment you do wrong they'll let you know.

    They are doing it to raise his profile but don't realise they are ruining his image with the people who are actually the ones who buy boxing tickets instead of just reading about him in Heat magazine

    You could have just summaries with "he's a twat". Would have been more than suffice

    The problem with Khan is that he's completely thick and he just come out with total crap on top of that his ****ing thick Bolton accent doesn't help.

    Ive met Khan and i like him. As a person and as a fighter. I ve asked people in pubs and places why they dont like him and the response ive had many times is , and i apologise for any offence caused im just quoting people, "Hes a flash p--- *******"

    So yes it is largely racism unfortunately. Sad in 2013.

    like it or hate it but being honest a lot of it is racism, or something similar to it....people like to be able to relate with their idols ,half the reason Hatton was popular. decent guy likes a pint could be any of our mates,but if we are truthfully honest the majority of people in this country have zero in common with a young ,rich,muslim man...and if you were at his last fight in sheffield it was basically asians one side (men only by the way) and all the rest the other..its just the way it is

    khan is nothing but a product of cable tv... he's a good offensive talent that's still just a little raw... Not green, but not just fully out of the cocoon. Maybe one day he'll turn into a butterfly, but until than all we have his " Chin of Paper Mache!"
