Amir Khan.. why do i dislike him?
Collapse

Exactly, he's achieved a lot at a young age with an unusually high amount of media pressure which started way back midway through his Olympic campaign, but he says a few words here and there and certain people act like he killed someone. Calzaghe does it, Hatton does it and they get the nod regardless.. definite double-standard going on here..I really dont understand how some people think, The boy isnt even allow to talk!!! He is still a novice learning the trade has a pro..It okay for Hatton to talk..okay for calzaghe to talk about for some reason Khan isnt allowed to say anything? 14-0 fought good competition in his last 2 fights..still 20 yrs old, Commonwealth champion, at 27 Hatton and calzaghe were still fighting Pub managers at 30-0...defending the Highly regarded WBU title
, We have here Khan fighting Earl at this stage of his career and people still want to bash him? it really makes you wonder why

Khan is over hyped to the max, but that doesnt really bother me. What bothers me is his arrogance in actually believing his own hype. When he was dropped by the feather fisted Limmond I thought (and hoped) he would learn a valuable lesson, but no. All it seemed to do was convince him even more so that he is in fact invincible. After he was dropped hard, he claimed that because he got up it proves he's got a good chin. Not only did it prove he could be dropped by pretty much anybody, it also proved that he seems to have no knowledge of boxing.
Note to Amir: Having a good chin means you DONT get floored in the first place, twat
you ever had a real fight and say things without thinking? maybe at that moment the adrenilin got to him. as i have said in a interview not after a fight he is sound, he deos still think he will win a world title sooner than i think he can but he knows himself and what he can do.
does he deserve the hate for the attention he si getting? no but then many people are jealous or just hate other success because they feel it is not justified. well thats theirs and your opinion but i for one feel sorry for anyone ahting on the guy who is young and is generally a ncie guy who has done good.
if i was 21 and fofered a tv contract and lots of money i would lvoe it.Comment

Being from the UK has nothing to do with it, he won the silver for Britain age 17. Most people in the UK respect him for that, there's only a few pricks that can't look past his ethnicity I reckon. The driving things a crux, he was a new driver and statistically thats when you're most likely to have an accident but he pleaded guilty for the wrong-doing and the guy he clipped was drunk as a skunk anyway, he jumped back into the cars path if you watch the videoComment

its not a race issue, stop being so narrow minded. naz was a ****** and the whole country was behind himBeing from the UK has nothing to do with it, he won the silver for Britain age 17.

I don't like Amir Khan because he is another overhyped fighter from the UK. He has pretty good skills, but his chin is gonna let him down when he faces the top fighters at 135. Khan reminds me of Jason Litzau, who is also very talented, but he got exposed by Hernandez. I think Khan is gonna get exposed by Earl when they fight, I can see Khan leading on the scorecards until Earl catches him and KO's him. I am willing to bet points on Graham Earl in an upset.Last edited by WLAD OWNS; 11-22-2007, 03:40 AM.Comment

i actually agree. i think khan will outspeed earl in the opening rounds but once khan slows earl will find the target and i have a feeling he will send khan to sleep. i hope im wrong thoughI don't like Amir Khan because he is another overhyped fighter from the UK.

Do people actually dislike Khan in the UK just because of his race? Naz was ****** too and everybody loved him there, I was actually a pretty big fan of Naz, he was a great fighter and entertainer.Comment
