Why is Amir Khan so much more popular than Timothy Bradley??

[Heeb]

Nationalism.

[Zizou2]

British-Pakistani World Champions are rare
Khan has awesome speed and power
Interesting persona and good trash talker
Weak chin = makes for a more entertaining fight, cause you know at any second he can get KTFO

[GHOST KING]

I haven't watched alot of Khans older fights...Where does this "Glass chin" thing come from? Is it from that ridiculously hard shot he took straight to the chin from prescott who is a hard hitter?? Anyone would have slept from that... Or has he been down in previous fights as well???

He got rocked by Willie Limond who has 8 KOs in 30 fights.

[fatmash]

becuase hes pakistani !!

because hes a exciteing fighter!

because hes a british citizan !

becuase hes good lookin !!

becuase hes an oylimpic sliver medalist

because hes got a massive weakness !!............ his chin

see a weakness like that is a gift in another sense coz people want to watch and see if this is the time he gets knocked out again lol


all these add up to super star if he keeps winning that is !!!

I don't think Khan is more popular than Bradley right now.

Maybe in Britain yes, but in America?

[MOTHER DUCKER]

Cause Bradley is a nice black American fighter...

Mosley, Williams, Dawson etc all good/great fighters and nice guys bit no fanbase. The only black fighter who does/has done real money in recent times is Floyd mayweather who plays the bad guy.

he got kncoked down about 5/6 times in his pro cAreer I think. Let's be fair he was far to ****y and rushed into Prescott. The fight was at 135 and khan is a very big 140 pounder... Maybe like cotto he will be a little
less chiny, but it's hard to say he has not been hit much since that fight.
