Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Hatton a Legend, I'm Trying To Fill His Shoes

[LA_2_Vegas]

Hatton a legend? Please!!! Ray Robinson is a legend, Ali is a legend, Roberto Duran is a legend, Ray Leanord is a legend, etc. Hatton was a good fighter. Not a legend. Period!!! I guess all of us but Khan knew that.

i know what you're saying and agree on the boxing side. but there are plenty of "legends" in history, sports, popular culture, etc that we have here in the US who mean absolutely nothing to other people in the world. if hatton's name lives on forever, wherever it is, then he will be a legend.

You don't know what the hell you're talking about. Pakistani people are some of the most warm, inviting, and friendly people i have ever met. True followers of Islam would give their shirt off their back to their neighbor, regardless of his nationality or faith. . . Ive never met a "racist" pakistani person in my life. of course they exist, lol, but they are a good people.

Lets try and keep this boxing, But I know first hand about the deep seated xenophobia and racism in that country. Pakistan massacred 3 million Bengalis in just 9 months, The kill ratio of Pakistan against Bengaladeshi people was higher than that of **** Germany and the Japanese Empire during world war II in a fraction of the time. They treat Afghan people like animals, Far from giving Afghans clothes ive seen Pakistani soldiers make Afghans strip naked act like a dog to be able to cross into Pakistan. They dont want the refugees in thier country. Not just that but they have been backing various factions in that country to fight against each other and use them as pawns. As for India, Pakistan is the successor state to the Moghul Empire which enslaved India for 1000 years and tens of millions of Hindus were killed, Not just that but they even killed the Sikh gurus!

End of topic, No more politics. Just wanted to clear what I was saying. Back to boxing.

It's not that hard to fill Hatton's shoes.

If Khan becomes undisputed JWW champion by beating Bradley, I already have him ranked higher than Hatton.

lol of course im going to respond; we can have a little discussion about politics - take a break from my addiction to boxing.

what country and nationality hasn't done something vile in the past? also, you can't stereotype the average pakistani citizen based on what the government or military does. when i was living in pakistan, it was a time of great peace and prosperity (right after the gulf war, up till about 1996), and i have a great memory of the people of pakistan i will never forget.

I will defend Pakistan until I die for all that it gave to me as a youth.

question: why do you have pictures of amir khan, if you are ****ting on his people?

see the guy in my profile pic? he was a former general in the pakistani army and that dude is tough as nails. he has been captured and tortured so many times by INDIAN forces; by ********* from afghanistan who hole up in the NW frontier. He had his nose basically cut off - if you can enlarge the pic enough you can tell.

still, he was like my second father - he bought me a cricket bat and taught me how to play and everything. pakistan has it's share of problems like every other third world country. you can't really judge or speak on the country until you have lived there. they are a good people.

I might be mistaken but the person in your profile looks like Hamid Gul, The former head of the Inter services intelligence agency, Basically Pakistan's spy agency thats involved in espionage, sabotage, target killings and propaganda. Hamid Gul is a Pakistani war criminal thats wanted in the US for crimes against humanity, Im not sure if its him the picture is very small, But the Pakistani government has refused to hand him over. Also he was nicknamed the "Soviet Slayer" because he was responsible for the death of so many Soviets/Russians during the Invasion of Afghanistan. Same Person?

I think you should stick to talking about boxing, as you seem to bee blinded by media propoganda. Hamid Gul wanted by U.S for crimes against humanity? Are you serious? American presidents including Carter and Reagen used to be all praise for him during the Russian war. Infact the 'Taliban' which Hamig Gul was so influential in organizing and forming, was according to President Reagen "moral equivalent of our forefathers"!!!
You should not get blinded by mass media propoganda of news channels like CNN and fox news. Only a fool believes evertything he hears in the massm edia. Always do your own research. Anywayzzzz peace out!

Pretty classy thing for Khan to say.
