Stunned to be honest!!!
I cannot stand Khan at the best of times this just adds fuel to the fire.
How come Ricky Hatton can have literally thousands of people travelling to Vegas from some of the most deprived areas of the UK and they enjoy themselves, yeah they get p*ssed and have a laugh - but nothing compared to the sh*t that seems to be caused in this latest Khan fight.
I am disgusted at Khan's antics recently and I am disgusted at his fans.

I hate the way some fans can't seem to except that they are there to pay there money and watch, that's it.

I've heard of some dumb ass shite at weight in's before, but that takes the cake.
The yanks aren't going to take at all kindly to Khan, and Di Bella isn't a man to cross if you want to do business in the states
Remember the hissing and booing that accompanied Hamed when he came into the ring against Barrera, and he never did anything as dumb as that.
Whoever is handling Khan's PR, should realise that being the bad guy from the UK just won't work. Hatton showed the way to do it.

Was going to say the same thing!!!
However at present Khan's saving grace is that he has Golden Boy and HBO backing him - perhaps they want a bit of controversy!!!

Spud - I know you don't like the kid but I'm pretty sure he had absolutely nowt to do with this. He looked more shocked than anyone.

Then he or his advisors should of got on the mic and told them to behave!!!
Time and time again you see boxers do it - why couldnt Khan - if he did then props to him.
It wont happen but I so hope that Khan gets his ar*e whooped well and truly - I will laugh and laugh and laugh - it would be the best result for me in the last 10 years!!
I think Khan stops Malanaggi - but lets hope yet again I am wildly wrong - it would be great.

I agree, Spud, that Khan should have spoken to them. He can still, surely, or someone from his team? The last thing Khan, and the UK/Pakistan, need is Khan fans causing trouble.
With that said, I'm looking forward to seeing the footage.

Yeah, one of them belatedly did mate.

Yes, but as we know Ian, in boxing, as in all walks of life, things change, and the day may come when he needs a helping hand from DiBella, and it's not like DiBella is a man not to bear a grudge now is it?

That's good to hear. Hopefully things will be better for the fight. I would like the post-fight discussion to be about the fight itself, not the crowd.

Have got to say pity the stinking Smoggie did not get caught when the punches were thrown - his bleating report would have been hilarious!!

It's wrong to play on American insecurities, they must be frightened enough with a few coachloads of Asians turning up. let alone if they start wearing hoods and start chanting, don't be surprised if another Middle Eastern country gets invaded

Lol, Amir just can't stop running his image into the dirt. Dismisses everybody as racists, the ridiculous Twitter posts, the seedy Piers Morgan interview, the torture & knob texts, and now he's surrounding himself with an army of goons.
Takes a lot of heart to be a tough guy when you've got 30 of your mates with you!
Khan is the biggest cretin British boxing has seen for a long long time.

Khan's supporters are the biggest P***ks in the sport at the moment.
I've been to at least a dozen of Amir's fights both Pro and Amateur and his fans are a rude intimidating bunch.
The worst incidents I can recall where when he beat Steve Williams in the NW ABA's, his fight with Earl and the Salita contest. The conduct of his fans against Earl was diabolical and I'm amazed a riot didn't break out. They were climbing on seats, pushing forward, refusing to sit down, and ignoring the requests of security.
I've never seen fans of any other boxer behave like this and it's not acceptable. If Khan was to fight a boxer around his weight in Britain who attracts a big football following then absolute chaos is going to ensue. His fight with Scott Lawton was nearly disastrous before police formed an excellent barrier.
The amount of people that flooded the ring following the Salita victory was also a vile image. Salita could have been seriously hurt following his collapse and may have needed rapid assistance to the back but it would have took an eternity to get through that crowd that had assembled for no necessary reason.
There's nothing wrong with supporting your man but please have the dignity to do it accordingly, his fans know how to do this as they were impeccably behaved when Mr Prescott almost decapitated him.
By the way, this is not an attack on Amir Khan who I believe is a quality talent and will stop Paulie Malignaggi around halfway tomorrow.
Best of luck Amir
