During a recent British radio interview, WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan fired back at his domestic rival, WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch. Last week, Khan said Froch's constant negative comments were part of the reason he was considering a possible move from Britain to the United States.
"I know for a fact [that] I’m a better world champion than Froch. I always get dissed by Froch, that’s just jealousy I think. He hasn’t got the recognition I have got and the things I got. Where was he when he was 22? What I have done in this game, no 22-year-old has done," Khan said.
Khan's popularity has been a hot subject in the UK. Khan has a lot of critics among the fans and British media. The boos seem to follow Khan at most of his fights.
"I am really considering moving abroad. It doesn’t bother me if people hate me. I am just doing what I love doing. Them people that hate me, lets see them go out and win a world title the way I did."
