    Amir Khan got Heavily Booed at Wembley!!!

    Why was that? Probably cause he had Groves ahead that time or for some other reason? The time Khan's picture came at the Big screen when being interviewed during mid rounds, whole crowd booed him.

    Never seen him getting booed like that before. He normally gets a lots of cheers from the crowd in the States, Even when he was fighting Peterson in his Hometown i.e DC the boos weren't as bad as this one.

    Probably because he's a tool who thinks he's great. He talks **** about everyone on that side of the pond yet he gets KO'ed by nobodies and never tries to avenge the loss lol.

      He's very unlikeable. Not to mention he and Froch don't like one another, Froch fans won't be too fond of him.

      He was also in Gonzalez's corner against DeGale, which some people did not appreciate even if they are stable-mates.

        He alway gets booed in the UK and the reasons are kinda lame, still dates back to him winning a silver at the Olympics at 17 and getting money thrown at him right, left and centre. Jealousy plays a big part.

          I disagree here, he tried desperately to make rematch happen with Peterson and Garcia and was devastated when his rematch was called off against Lamont Peterson for all the drug scandals, he even tried to make rematch happen with Garcia but their team said No.


          As far as Getting Ko'ed by nobodies Prescott was the only Nobody who defeated him, Danny Garcia TKO'ed him but he's not a nobody, he's still the Unified champion of the division.

            People seem to have a misconception that he is popular in the UK. In my experience is not well liked at all. I have been to a few of his fights here and most people were rooting for whoever he was fighting.

            Personally, I don't mind the guy....until he opens his mouth.

              Those were Froch fans who were booing on Khan.

                What more could you expect from a crowd heavily dominated by Froch fans?

                    I was there last night with my brother and it was a mixture of fans booing him, not just us Froch fans, I personally didn't boo cause I'm a fan and I felt a bit sorry for him when it happened.
