I suggest you live in the country before you comment on ****** treatment here.
    spot on,

    sunshine, poonanie, money and freddie roach are the reason Khan moved to the US

    he's the second most popular active UK boxer at present

        apparently Racism is one reason but Money is THE biggest reason IMO......Lennox Lewis as well as Nigel Benn have both established residency in the US before hitting it big in boxing.....

          Amir is an idiot in some ways one for overly going on about Allah everytime he is on TV! If he would just do the sensible thing and stop going on about it all the time.

          You are supposed to use the Islam to your advantage like, If I beat my wife I got the Perfect justification for court:

          Lewd women are to be confined to their houses until death. 4:15.

          "Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them. Surely God is high, supreme." 4.34

            I'm sorry,but that is bollocks and the most sweeping generalisation you could possibly make. If you visited here in the 70's and early 80's then I might agree with you. My city for example has huge cultural diversity and people get along fine. I couldnt/wouldnt want to imagine Southampton without its asian,caribbean or polish communities. You get the odd idiot everywhere,but on the whole there is no problem where I live.
            No it isn't ''bollucks'' just because it isn't prevelant where you live doesn't mean it isn't an issue. Not all cities in the UK are diverse and open minded.

            Sad fact is a lot of people in this country are racist.

            I can understand why Khan would move. If you're white you're not going to understand what it's like trying to focus around racism. You may say that ''It's only a minority'' but the minority are the one's who will be saying **** to you.

              No, it isn't like that. That film isn't set in the present anyway. The UK is no more racist than the US towards Asian people and people of Asian descent, arguably less so, but there are certainly some racist parts of society.

                That's soooo racist. You tryin to tell me I haven't been jumped for having white skin in a brown neighborhood? You can't even see, can you? You think it only flows one way. It's sad how common this pov is...

                  I don't think it is racism. The problem is not his skin, but his religion. The western world is very anti-islam and rightly so. I am an ex-****** and I understand very well what is going on in the world with regards to terrorism and jihad. Islam is a deadly cult and we will see even less tolerance of this supposed "religion of peace" in years to come by the western world.
