    ****ing Khan fans always pulling the race card. Khan had the biggest hype ever for a British fighter coming from the Olympics. He had audiences of 10 million on ITV but chose to go to Sky PPV early in his career with fights that shouldn't be on PPV. He lost the fans himself from being a greedy ****, if he had stayed with ITV he would probably be bigger than Hatton now.

      You're right, Matthew Hatton fans PACKED the venue when he fought Alvarez.

This country will never allow coloured folks to prosper unless they act white (i.e Lenny Henry, Ainsley Harriot)

            You're utterly ******ed, look how the media crucified John Terry so much they got his England captaincy revoked. You're just nitpicking at utter nonsense, if you really want to get technical about it, White people have alot less rights in England now than any so called "minority".

            White person attacks any non-white? HATE CRIME, RACIST! non-white attacks White? oh it's just a normal crime, nothing to see here people.

            Thousands more examples I could list for you, the fact of the matter is, noone likes Khan or Haye because they're too far up themselves and tbh, Haye atleast, does have a pretty good fan base in the UK. Everyone hates Khan and it isn't anything to do with race or religion. Bruno and Hamed say hi, Froch also says hi.

              Khan might alsways suffer some downside from racists in the uk,but he as an olympic medalist is still very popular,but also his family doing his business and doing it poorly will affect his populairty.

              Haye is very popular,as a freindly down to earth heavyweight who is on all the talk shows and all over tv all the time,his popularity is good,could be as good as hattons if he beats one klitschko then the other then fights in the US.

                Here we go again - race, race, race.

                Why are people on here so obsessed by it?

                  IF Khan or Haye were white, they'd be sucking their balls. Hatton was an average boxer with a huge following because he was 'one of the lads'. Khan or Haye will never get Hattons fans to follow them because they aren't White. My opinion.
                  So your saying that Khan and Haye don't hold enough during their fights?

                    Who cares? What you say might be true, but they're both famous multi-millionaires, with tons of adoring fans, am I suppossed to feel sorry for them?

                      Wayne Rooney isnt labelled as an English hero. And Ashley Cole gets praised just as much as a footballer as Rooney.

                      Frank Bruno was SECTIONED under the mental health act you mong....
