amir khan - losing fans

stuff khan. Uchiyama would KO his ass out at 135.

Well, doubt he has Mexican fans. Mehikans like Macho boxers.

I was a fan until the post-fight b*tchfest began. The fight was a fair result, Amir Khan and Golden Boy Promotions are a bunch of cowards, and they made it clear with their lobbying to get a corrupt decision in their favour. If things pan out were a rematch is demanded and Lamont Peterson has to go to Las Vegas and get screwed out, then, well, I will probably become a hater.

You guys are obviously deluded. The fight in itself was a great matchup, with their conflicting styles and Petersons determination it made a great spectacle. Unfortunately, it was ruined by either a biased referee or a referee unfit for championship boxing. Also ruined by Khan's (or Oscar's) failure to insert a rematch clause. If they had one, the robbery would not have been such a big deal. Poor business on their part. To be honest Khan keeps talking about moving up to 147, the guy doesn't have the power to hurt anyone at 147 cause he doesn't sit down on his shots. He throws his pitty-patty amateur style shots which won't have much effect on the bigger guys, he can't deal with pressure fighters and he can't fight on the inside. I agree with this. Imo he needs to be a career 140lber. The only champ or 'name' he matches up well with stylistically at 147lbs is Mayweather as Floyd doesn't have the power to KO him and isn't an inside or pressure fighter, also Khan has greater handspeed. Not saying he wins, but it's a good fight.

A lot of boxing die hards are losing respect for the guy. I mean with this mystery man thing he might finally have a bit of credibility but his constant moaning and whining and his claims that he has everything to be the P4P best have alienated him among st some boxing fan circles.

His whole complaint about Peterson coming in with his head low; well why not step back and throw the uppercut? I was fan of Khan up until he joined GBP and he became this cocky arrogant little gob****e. But one thing that can work in his favour he does seem to get himself involved in exciting fights, which will always help.

Trust me he has hardly lost any. Its only those who are die hard boxing fans or actually know a thing or two about boxing that have chosen not to be his fan. Almost all of Khans fans are proper casual fans. 99% of people i know who support Khan don't know **** about boxing and couldn't care less what he's like. they just seem to follow the crowd. Mind you if you include those 'fans' who just like watching him because he's exciting etc, there will always be them even those who dislike him

The best of Amir? Are you insane? Unless he learns how to fight on the inside, then yes.

Khan can regain any fanbase he loses. All he needs to do is start winning and move on. Hopefully he keeps his exposure and doesn't let his head get too big again. But I think he will be back even though we might have seen the best of Amir. The best of Amir? Are you insane?

Unfortunately, it was ruined by either a biased referee or a referee unfit for championship boxing. When multiple experienced referee's are claiming that they wouldnt have deducted points says it all. Amir no doubt should have done more, not allowing the judges to decide the fight and could have stopped Peterson if he listened to the corner. Either way, a lot of fans said the main reason Peterson got the decision is because of Khan's 'running'. Khan landed more punches in the fight and got robbed of a knockdown. I kow people say that landing more punches doesnt win you the fight but if that was the case then why didnt Hopkins get the decision against Calzaghe? Whatever the case, due to the fight being as close as it was then Peterson by pure sportmanship should look at a Khan rematch before any other opponent. He is too one dimensional for Pacquiao, and Bradley's style is too much of a mismatch for him. Fight Khan again in vegas or canada and prove you won of merit no from a gift from the referee!

He needs a style overhaul, might of been great for amateur boxing.But he will lose fans running around the square circle.

lol, the mystery man is gonna do him some good at least. but i dunno how anybody respects him the same after this. i guess its all a conspiracy. even if u think this guy fixed all of the cards, which seems very far-fetched to me, does that mean the ref in the ring was in on it when he deducted the points? those points are what ultimately cost him rite? i dont see how two guys in different realms of the fight were able to conspire to that level to steal the fight from this crybaby. sure boxing is corrupt. but amir khan is a crybaby.

If Khan fights Prescott again and KOs him, I think he get's back in the mix. I just hope his team stops being greedy and pay Breidis properly-- and not offer him something like twenty or thirty grand.

His fan base is plummitting. I was a fan of Amir Khan. Defending him on these forums plenty of times. He's lost a fan in me now.

We all need a good cry and now and again, why shouldn't Amir have his? :)

0 < φ - you would have to factor into this the crying, ethnicity and level of annoyance. Using those variables you could easily get an estimate on how many fans Amir Khan is losing per day of crying.
