      I think the fact he's Asia has given him attention, there's not alot of Asian: Indian/Pakistani fighters so ppl like khan/nas brew up a storm amongst Asian ppl.
      If he was White, after Prescott he'd b just another White fighter

        It was basically a white woman seperating people due to their eye colour. Whoever had blue eyes instantly had to be spoken to rudely and treated unfairly. Once seperated, she told the people with brown, black eyes how to treat them and then called them back.

        Out of all the races which took part in that, it was the 2 white people that couldn't handle what was being said and done to these because the whole targeted group was white.

        They were unwilling to accept that such behaviour takes place in the UK towards **********. Complately blind to it. One evn said that she was a teacher and a black student fell in the playgrounds and was shocked to see that when her skin teared, that she was pink from underneath. Like she expected a darker color or something.

        This view from an educated teacher, higher class person. Thats the ultimate problem with the UK. They are unable to believe or accept that this **** takes place.

        The woman doing the experiment said at the end the its embedded back in their mind that they are the higher race. Wether they realise it or not. This coming from a white professor.

        Amir Khan would have been a superstar without doubt. I dont remember anyone calling for Hatton and Calzaghe to be fighting the best out there when they had only 22 fights.

        They believe that Khan has been hyped more, well dont fall into the hype of it and recognise that he's still learning. The bigger fights will come just as they did for the other british fighters. Their hunger for seeing Khan getting knocked out again is taking over their minds.
        Racism does take place, noones denying that but it's not just a one way thing, which is the ultimate fallacy in the modern world; only white people can be racist.

        That experiment really doesn't prove anything either.

            Racism is everywhere.

            Look at Mugabe, although perhaps he was unhappy with how his people were treated back in the days perhaps.

                  Jane Elliot Blue Eyed - search in youtube and watch it. Watch the tests done on adults. Unfortunately the british version isnt there.

                    Dumbest thread ever. Amir is a household name in the UK and a figure in mainstream culture here. The only other boxer than can claim that is Hatton. (Only counting active/semi-retired boxers).
