Khan lashes out at British fight fans

Saleta was untested and never fought a ranked fighter. He is also a light puncher. Maidana won a title eliminator against Victor Ortiz, Khan refused to fight him after that and takes a mandatory(??) in Saleta. Meanwhile Prescott loses and turns out to be ordinary. Now if Khan goes to the U.S. he will demand special consideration in chosing his opponents. No wonder our respected UK members are so hard on him.

I came across this article on a reputable boxing site. What a shame a fighter like Khan can't get support in his home country. Looks like he'll be fighting stateside now. WBA super lightweight champion Amir Khan has lashed out at his British detractors. “I can only say that sometimes skin color does make a difference,” stated Khan, who is of Paskistani decent. “I know for a fact if I were a white English fighter maybe I would have been a superstar in Britain, and the world.” He added, “In America they treat me like God!” I very much doubt he would ever say he is treated like god. As a muslim we can not associate with god or anyone else, object etc... source?

Fuk off to America then i dont see the big deal...

This was from about 3 weeks ago, he's already said it was misrepresented and Warren has been complaining that the person who did the interview was following an agenda and took stuff from 4 different questions to make it controvercial. Khan is Naieve and there are genuine reason why educated fight fans had an issue with his attitude and career path. the ducking of Murray and Thraxton grated on alot of UK fight fans and was the source of a grat deal of the dislike, for me his fight against Kotelnik answered alot of questions and unless he fights another 4 Salita's in a row i'll be off his back in that reguard.

never trust a sources which cant spell pakistani properly:bsflag: Lol :lol1: Paskistani decent? What an idiot.

with warrens M.O. he'll keep khan matched up against second tier britts and euros and get a bigger piece of the khan pie. if he keeps him in U.K. I don't know what makes you think that. His last three fights have been against barrera, a world champion and a mandatory challenger. I reckon he'll be on the may v pac bill. Warren wants to keep him in britain but it won't happen. He'll only go on to harder fights from now on!!!!

The fact is he has the personality of a soggy sock. Where as Hatton is very likeable.

there seemed to be a respectable amount of people at the Khan Salita fight.. I really don't know what he's whining about

Let's be honest. He was never embraced by the fans the way Hatton and Froch have been.

already been discussed. The 'In America they treat me like God' line makes me laugh though. I bet Amir Khan could probably walk through Los Angeles completely unnoticed.
