    He fights like a kangaroo on amphetemins and his idea of defence is to leg it round the ring.

    He's got decent talent but the way he fights pisses me off

    and his chin

      He might be the most clowned dude in boxing but I don't think he is the most hated~

      Being the butt of jokes is different than being hated. As for why people do that, he is just a very easy target, just like he is in the ring~

          He is a guy who fights anyone. Has amazing hand speed. Good boxing skills. Always puts on exciting fights.

          He's arrogant like a lot of boxers are, but so far he's acheived a lot in his career.

          He won the WBA against a legitimate opponent. He's been an IBF champion as well.
          Khan was very popular he was getting 10+ million viewers when he turned pro. He started to believe his own hype and got the shitty attitude talking crap about other fighters. A lot of people didn't like that and they started boo him. After this Khan started to turn even more people against him because he began targeting the fans saying things like they like losers, they're jealous of him, if he was a white fighter he'd be a superstar etc. He moved his fights to PPV, lost to Prescott in his first PPV and the casuals weren't interested anymore.

            I think you have covered most of the issues of why Khan is not as popular as he could be. I believe his pathetic excuses and antics that he came out with the explain his losses also added fuel to the fire and the way his PR machine have turned his life into a mini soap opera. The way he turned on Roach and blames him for the loss to Garcia. It is never his fault. Peaple can only take so much spin. He has turned himself into a bit of a laughing stock.

              Khan is booed everywhere he goes. America or in Britain.

              - booed in the Barrera fight (in the UK)
              - booed at the Hatton/Pacquiao weigh in
              - booed heavily in DC for the Peterson Bout.
              - booed in LA for the Molina fight.

              Peterson tests positive for testosterone, & Amir was robbed blindly in that fight, yet Khan still gets bashed.

              I read ESB & this site. Most users on both sites have disrespect for guys like Khan with a lot of racism & saying he isn't good fighter, as well as guys like Pacquiao, Marquez & Canelo. Yet scumbags woman beaters like Adrien Broner & Floyd Jr. Get a pass.

              People on here were celebrating when Khan was KO by Garcia.

              Ridiculous ..
              Because he said he could beat floyd, then all the floyd fan girls got upset.

                Peterson home town boy is that one really a surprise? Doesn't take a genius to work that one out.

                I don't think he's the most hated. He just gets clowned on when he talks his BS like "I'm 2nd to only Pacman when it comes to offensive fighting" & all that garbage, then he gets his ass handed to him by Garcia.

                If he talks smack and gives it the big 'un, he's got to back it up.

                I don't hate the dude...he's just annoying as **** as soon as he opens his mouth. The dude has the IQ of a turkey.

                  ^^^^ This.

                  Khan is an exiting fighter who's always in exiting fights win or lose. He has great speed and some flashy combo's. He gets way to much hate.

                    khan got his ass whooped in that fight( Peterson fight) that is what you called running like a chicken with its head cut off and he did that..the excessive shoving, the pushdown in the first round was not a knockdown, the second knockdown was a slip and a gift to khan he couldn't fight his way out of lpetes pressure and if they fought again khan gets slaughtered again maybe worse..

                    i forgot what round but khan actually brought a one wheel circus bike into the ring and Lpete had to literally chase him down while khan used it

                    gtfoh man

                      He’s probably hated because he was hyped up to more then he actually is, every time he loses he has an excuse, and brags about how good is.

                      But he shouldn’t be hated at all, guy fights the best everywhere and has action packed fight, his chin being so vulnerable makes all his fights extremely exciting
