Just watched Barrera vs Khan for the first time.

Didn't watch it till now because I knew that they CHERRY PICKED Barrera because of his name, and because he's was too small and way past his prime.

But my first impression is that Barrera got a standing ovation and Khan got BOO'd, badly....


I was puzzled, because I know Khan is from the UK himself and Barrera is Mexican.... Can someone from the UK explain this for me? Some of my English buddies tell me that people are very prejudice against ******s/Middle Easterners/Indians over there.

How's Amirs popularity in the UK? Do people perceive him well? (and I'm refering to the English population)

From what I've read, Barrera is friends with Ricky Hatton, so English fans probably think he's cool.

Plus, he's MAB. He has fans everywhere.

Marco has walked out with Ricky on many of his fights, (like when he KO'd Castillo) and Vice Versa

was that the fight where MAB came out to Michael Jackson just after he died? Someone did that in Europe and got loud cheers but I forget who. I dont think it was MAB but it may have been him

I think it was Ortiz who came out to MJ right after he passed away.

But maybe you're thinking of another fight.

I believe the fight came earlier before Jackson's death. Way earlier.

that was a great fight. the officials hoped barrera didn't bleed to death before 4 rounds were completed so khan could "beat" a legend!

haha I remembered that.. MAB's cut was crazy and yet Khan was not able to stop him.. and worse, they obviously waited for 4 complete rounds.. without the cut, MAB might even pulled a win.
