There is a big 'Hate Khan' attitude on here, and in the UK. What is your reason for not liking him?

You should put "i like Khan" as an option.

I like him, but he can't quite be counted as my favourite because he drives a car.

I was the one that selected the 'like' option Carlos. What was your reason?

Is it because he is thick?
Is it because he is disrespectful to his rivals?
Is it because he runs people over in his car?

They fall under 'None of the above, please state your answer'. Is that yours? Many fighters are disrespectful beforehand.

You can't dislike someone for being thick, this is a sport where people take punches in the head for a living afterall, I think you've got to be slightly unhinged to even take part.

I don't want to participate in such a biased poll. What is the point of options like:

Is it because he won an Olympic Silver Medal at 17, and is now a World Champion...at 23!?
Is it because of 1 KO loss he has recovered from?

He never seemed thick to me. Did he hit anyone with his car?

You don't think Khan comes across as being significantly more dim than the average boxer?

No but I did hear from a prominent source that he ran a load of orphans over with his truck.

No, he wasn't thick - in the ring or out but he certainly killed someone on the motorway - a maitenence worker who served in the French Foriegn Legion - fancy surviving that only to get flattened by Chris big red truck!

It is a piss-take poll if you have not noticed. Some serious options, some just plain stupid. Select the one that you prefer, or go to another thread.

What has him being dim got to do with it? Do you dislike people in general who are thick or just Khan?

Since when did you need an academic qualification to be a boxer? Most boxers take up the sport because they are shite at everything else.

I know a lot of people think I'm dumb. Well, at least I ain't no educated fool.
