Amir Khan got Heavily Booed at Wembley!!!

Believe it or not, most of it's down to racism and or him being a Muslim. The average British person isn't too fond of him being a Pakistani and/or Muslim. Add to that jealousy and you have people who hate Khan and will discredit anything he does in the ring. Khan's yapping does get him hate but not to the extent people would bother wasting their energy booing him all day long. The guy's a Olympic silver medallist. Has been showered in money ever since he won silver. Always in exciting fights with a good resume win, lose or draw. Yes he does yap on about Floyd because in his heart he actually believes he can beat him and be honest who doesn't want Floyd, Khan probably won't earn too much more flighting Floyd than he would fighting Brook but he wants to test himself against the P4P best. Bingo. That's why I never liked anything British in my life (except one teenage girl I ****ed). The origin of hate and racism.

Granted Gonzalez was Virgil Hunters fighter, Khan walked out an American against a English fighter at Wembley, what did he expect? lol

Froch got booed in Nottingham a few weeks ago. Definitely because he is black :nonono:

Why was that? Probably cause he had Groves ahead that time or for some other reason? The time Khan's picture came at the Big screen when being interviewed during mid rounds, whole crowd booed him. Never seen him getting booed like that before. He normally gets a lots of cheers from the crowd in the States, Even when he was fighting Peterson in his Hometown i.e DC the boos weren't as bad as this one. no one knew his score card in the arena, he was booed cause no one likes him. to be honest everyone was getting booed in the area, the crowd was clueless, from boo carl they became fans of his at the end. everyone went crazy when bruno come on the screens.

Idk why people have a false impression that Khan is arrogant? Cause he's not arrogant at all, Those who have met him in person always say that he's few of the most humble & nicest fighters out there, he doesn't bad mouth about his opponents and never use any swear words. I think he gets perceived in the wrong way and from the articles and headlines in the papers he comes off as a arrogant lad, while in reality he's just someone who truly believes in himself and his abilities like most of the other fighters out there.

UK is one of the least racist places in the world. You see racism is changing, skin colour and even some cultures are being accepted but it is becoming acceptable to abuse Muslims, it's the ugly side of Britain and Europe as a whole. Anyway, this isn't a discussion for a boxing forum.

He alway gets booed in the UK and the reasons are kinda lame, still dates back to him winning a silver at the Olympics at 17 and getting money thrown at him right, left and centre. Jealousy plays a big part. not to mention the racism, every UK Khan fight I've been to, there's at least 60% of fans who are racist skin heads doing the booing, it really is as simple as that. I don't understand how boxing fans can hate Khan, the guy gives us great fight after great fight. This is England, where racism is on the rise, especially aimed against Asians, most importantly muslims. Simple as that.

Lol you must be losing it. There were no more than 100 Asian people inside that stadium, tops. And Europe--particularly the UK--are far more hostile towards Muslims than the US. All fighters have egos, you have to look beneath the surface and the purported reasons for why the Europeans hate him to figure out the real reasons. He is a lot more liked in the US because people over here are a lot less racist than in the EU. Sorry to have to question your insight but... There were at least 50 young Asian males in my section of the stadium alone. Just because they are not wearing a burka doesn't mean they don't have a Pakistani / Bangladeshi heritage. They are just normal 'westernised' Asian's (like Khan), drinking, smoking etc. I can't believe you honestly think there were 100 Asians in the stadium, where were you sitting?

Khan is not popular in the UK.

I honestly do not think the booing was racially motivated at all. Many, many fans inside the stadium were Asian and (presumably) Muslims - they booed him as well. The UK is much more tolerant of Muslims than, say the USA or other parts of Europe so a crowd of 80,000 would be representative of a broad cross section of the UK society. Khan was booed because he is not popular due to his arrogance and overplayed ego. Not everything is racial, sometimes we should look past that. Lol you must be losing it.

It is because he is very arrogant the british dont like that ****.

He was as was Groves. Only Frank Bruno got cheered. The groves fans are gonna boo the froch fans and vice versa. Not sure why you would boo somebody who ain't fighting.

If the arrogance and overplayed ego was the reason then froch should be booed really loudly because his arrogance and ego is of the charts!

Arrogance, running people over in his car and a history of bad mouthing Froch had nothing to do with it. It was racism. :smashfrea I honestly do not think the booing was racially motivated at all.

He may have ran someone over when he was young immature and irresponsible but let's just forget all the good aid and charity work he does continuously. Look at Stevenson he was a pimp and raped someone but Canada still love him. People use the same reasons to hate on him so they can hide why they really don't like him.

Arrogance, running people over in his car and a history of bad mouthing Froch had nothing to do with it. It was racism. :smashfrea Lol boxers have done far worse than being arrogant and running someone over, but it's really funny that you try to cover up your racism with a smokescreen, purporting to base your hatred on bad moral character. It's funny how even the people on this thread can't just admit they dislike him due to his race/religion. If you are a bigot, at least have the balls to admit it and be a bigot with pride. We don't need your "I don't like him because he is bad to other people" BS.

I booed him when I saw it on my tv. Same reason...oh, and he's an idiot too. Let's not forget that. No wonder the boos were so loud.

Damn that sucks for Khan maybe he should continue fighting in the states.

I would imagine it's because people just don't like Muslims and Pakistanis in England. I booed him when I saw it on my tv. Same reason...oh, and he's an idiot too. Let's not forget that.

Yeah, that wasn't a very friendly gesture from his fans ... :lol1:
