Brits...Why all the hate for Khan>?

[Sparked_26]

I like him.

and support him, even if I do watch his fights through my fingers.

That said, I'm getting a bit worried about him. There are fighters who get knocked smooth out on the regular who are taking less punishment than Khan.

I know he's only 26 but he should be looking at cashing out. He probably is not quite good enough anymore if would seem to compete at world level, especially on the platform Golden Boy have given him.

He done well to win a version of the world title and more so to unify, as well as a silver the Olympics. He's been a great servant to British boxing, imo - consistently taking on the big fights, crossing the pond to make them, and inspiring a generation of British fighters with his exploits.

He's done good, man!

Should he be headlining big shows in America anymore? Probably not. But that's not his fault.

The "he's exciting" excuse is just a cop out for British fans to continue to kiss his ass and share in the denial.

You make a great point about Enzo. Just like Khan he is an ex paper champion and every one of his fights ends in a KO inside of 6 rounds... now that's technically even more exciting than Khan by the definition Khan fans use.

The Khan fans probably put Smokin Bert Cooper on their all time p4p list just behind Ron Lyle and Mickey Ward and ahead of Amir Khan.

He's exciting because he always makes a good highlight reel for his opponents next opponent

Hatton wasn't arrogant, he was a guy that people could relate to. Ricky also beat KT and though he lost his biggest fights, he was still in the ring with the best of this generation. Khan has come no where near Ricky's accomplishments.

Also: Khan sucks.

Hat tons win against kosta is like khans win against Barrera I.e they were both way past it

[gmc_rfc_06]

It's difficult to like a delusional, arrogant, self-important turd.

You would think he'd learn about talking nonsense that he can't back up, but nope, he's still as delusional and clueless as always.

Its a joke how many people hate khan i think asian people hate him because there jelous hes the only succesful asian boxer.... And somepeople are just racist and others hate him because hes confident but they love mayweather and broner tho,but they seem to not like it when khan trash talks

If that was so then why was Ricky such a huge underdog? KT was coming off of a lay off, while Barrera had been through war after war. That comparison is ******.

Living in England i know many Pakistani brits/Pakistani who really do not like him either.. maybe it's down to him being famous an rich? i don't know..

I don't MIND him.. i like to watch his fights and support him.. but it's not on the same level as Haye, Hatton, Froch or Lewis for me.. he just doesn't appeal to me.. maybe its the weak chin/punch power/looking to far ahead.

But Froch is not well known in England.. and he is a better fighter then Khan.. that's one other issue i have.

people who deny the racial aspect are lying to themselves.

if hatton was black he would have sold half.

David Haye's PPV numbers are better than Hattons, so it's not about that.

Haye-Klitschko sold the same as Hatton-Mayweather (£1.2mil), Haye-Valuev (800k) sold more than Hatton-Pacquiao and Haye also sold 800k and 700k PPV's for Ruiz and Harrison.
