        Khan is British, born a Briton, brought up a Briton and that won't change for the rest of his life no matter where he goes.

        As someone else said, people in Britain do like him but he needs to justify the hype in the ring against credible opponents.

          Of course Britons like Khan. He's been attracting sell-out crowds since his debut. He got a great ovation in Newcastly. There may be a few brits here and there that don't like him but by and large he's a well liked fighter.

            So Khan is American now?

            Born in England = English

                Not quite as strange as being told we arent supporting him when we are.

                  He's as British as myself or anyone else who was born, raised and educated here. That's the simple truth.

                  It wasn't very clear on the broadcast, but everyone went absolutely NUTS for him at Newcastle - when he came out, when he got to the ring, when the bell rang, when the KDs occurred, when the fight was over, and everything afterwards.

                  Almost felt like we were losing a son who is going onto pastures new.

                    Khan is being a *****. Even his Dad said it lol. You could probably google Britain and a pic of Amir Khan would come up. I've always supported him and when he has a megafight like Hatton did against Tsyzu (spelling lol) people will get behind him a lot more.

                      i'll never quite understand the way brits think, just as it's hard to read women.
