Backing from home country has eluded Amir Khan

I get the impression that a lot of the new British fans simply want to back winners, which is a sad contrast to the history of British boxing and it's fans. They'll fall all over themselves to see "Haye Day" or Brook vs Nobody or Joshua vs Bum matches but won't back Khan in the most challenging and highest profile fight of his career.
Yea, he's going to get himself hurt, but this kind of fight is what separates the true fans from the bandwagon jumpers.

You can't leave your country, lose a couple big fights outside your country, do nothing for a few more years mostly outside of your country & expect people to act like nothing happened when your next big fight comes up outside of your country. I'm sure there are still many UK fans supremely interested in this fight, but you can't expect people to act like its 2009.

Khan had huge support in Britain to begin, even after getting flattened in 30 seconds by Prescott.
Then he basically left Britain, has fought here once in the last 5 years, lost another few fights and routinely makes some of the most absurd comments in boxing.
The most popular fighters in Britain fight in Britain regularly.

Now the difference with Fury is he talks about things at his own leisure about ****sexuals about women and so on he does this without any question needed to be given.
