AMIRS LITTLE BROTHER HAROON ALSO ICED IN 1 RD

[overhand_right]

Apparently in May Haroon Khans boxing club went over to Ireland.

Haroon was waving his Amir Khan flag giving it plenty of attitude.

Irish prospect named Adair iced him in about 18 seconds.

These rich sassy Khan brothers seem to be more dangerous behind the wheel of their BMWs than they are to boxers who punch back.

[Punchy Joe]

that's a bit harsh isn't it mate?? the kids only an amateur..........

[funso banjo baby]

overhand's right...mainly used for wanking

and none of this revelling is because the Khan's are Asian, is it?




hmmmm

[Wax On]

Yeah. Lets pick on his 14 year old little brother now.

Maybe have a laugh at his Mum receiving oxygen at ring side on Saturday.

Where do you get your kicks Overhand?? Casualty??

[Asterix]

Their Dad said Haroon is better than Amir, didn't he?

Edit: This is what he said (Wikipedia twisted the quote):

I think Haroon is a lot sharper and stronger than Amir was when he was 14.

180 amateur fights? ridiculous.

hmmmm

Oh I didn't realise the entire 'You can't criticise non-white people otherwise you are a racist' thought control now extended to criticising individuals as well.....

Whilst it may be considered a little tasteless to laugh at a 14 boy getting Ko'd I think the reaction is more to do with distaste against the ridiculous oversell of Khan as Britain's best young boxer.....

And the thread is also interesting in that it seems that the Khans possess a 'weak chin' gene.

[banjo]

Haroon is 17

[hitman_hatton1]

he is a spit double of amir in the ring.

i've seen bits of footage on youtube.

he's 17 now.

so the next few years will be crucial for him in terms of getting in the GB squad.

[Mowgli]

I don't mind Khan,its his Father i resent,he likes to get his face on tv a bit much for my liking.

Anyone who laughs at a 14yo getting knocked out is a fornicating imbecile and a pathetic excuse for a human being, especially because its an amateur boxer who officially is not getting paid and is doing it for the love of the game.
I'm sure theirs people who will shoot me down and say I'm overreacting but that's the way I feel about it.

hmmmm[/quote]I think bringing up race is just about as wrong as having a crack at his little brother who is still at the learning stage in the amateurs. Amir is another matter shooting his mouth off at the elite when he hasnt fought anyone anywhere near their class.

Well apparently he is actually 17, which puts a slightly different spin on things. He is the same age as when AMir went to the Olympics.

I thought that too, couldn't stand him, but I seen him once away from the cameras talking to loads of fans, for some time - I have to say I have thought more of him since then. And in fairness he is the one making the most honest statements about the Prescott fight.

With regard to the younger brother, feel sorry for him as he is always going to be under a far bigger spotlight than his peers.

It was Amir, not Haroon. I dont think Haroon even has a driving license.

Indeed.

Seriously, some of the peoples true Colours are showing, especially over the last few days...

[Asterix]

180 amateur fights? ridiculous.

Yeah, it's changed now, to:

Total fights 45
Wins 32
Wins by KO 21
Losses 8
Draws 0
No contests 0

Obviously someone can't add up. 32 + 8 = 45 ???

That does seem strange. Im guessing whoever edited his records may be mistaken with Exhibition fights or something

[Asterix]

Looking at the history, it's supposed to be:

Total fights 51
Wins 43
Wins by KO 38
Losses 8
Draws 0
No contests 0

What goes on in people's heads?

I felt a bit shortchanged at Khan being a PPV buy at this stage, not happy with that, also that his off-screen arrogance and especially manner of driving is replaced by a facade on TV when he tries to come across as humble.
Don't like Khan, don't like seeing his dad on tv either, what's that about???

So when someone writes that his little brother got beat after waving his 'Amir Khan' flag around, I don't think the guy is automatically racist. Ridiculous comment to come out with that. That is the problem with Britain at the moment, people can't say what they think without the liberals jumping all over them with little consideration of the wider circumstances, taking one small comment out of context - in this instance with no mention of his ethnicity!! If this was about Hatton after getting KO'd off Mayweather and Matthew Hatton also losing, would he be accused of racism??? That is aside from the aspect of criticising a 14 year old, which is harsh, but isn't the case in this post, that's something that has been mistakenly assumed after the post. Yeah the driving thing is a bit near to the knuckle, but that is Khan himself's doing rather than anyone else's IMO.

If you box publicly then really you are open to criticism. If you go into the ring waving your brother's flag around then you probably deserve a lot more, so tough.

If there are other factors at work that the poster has made racist comments before, then excuse me, I'm not aware of that but as I said didn't read racism in this.

So what? your just using any excuse to have a go at the khans now. Despite what you read in the press amir's actually a nice guy. Leave the lad alone now.

Exactley. Khan may come accross arrogant at times. But he's very humble when compared to other boxers. Most of the "Outrages" things he has said have been from Post-Fight interviews when he is obviously still in an Adrenaline Rush.

As for his brother, i really don't see the point in starting on him. Had Khan not lost, nobody would have said anything about Haroon.

[Gray-Fox]

Amir's not purposely arrogant, he's just thick and he thinks it makes him look like Mayweather.

Whatever pal.

Sick of guys who think they know what goes on in a Boxers head. Well The dude has earned Millions, so he must be doing something right. Tell me, how much do you earn, and what is your Boxing Record?

Do you watch a lot of Fox News?
