Am i missing something here ? if we were talking about naseem hamed i could understand the attitude , he was/is a horrrible little shit, but ive never thought amir khan particularly arrogant, having sad that ,all the while he still wears a gumshield in pakistani colours i will have my suspicions that covering himself in the union jack is nothing more than a marketing ploy, happy to be proved wrong though, while i am not known for my 'liberal' views, i would like to ask the likes of stevie boy if he considers Nigel Benn british ?( the bloke that was in the british army !) and what about the blacks in the army out in afghan at the moment ?
Maybe the Pakistan gumshield is a marketing ploy? :lol:

When has it become a crime for boxers to be arrogant?? Bigging yourself up before the fight and walking into the ring with a swagger is all part the game to not give your opponent any psychological advantage.

I like Khan, he's British and shown himself to be a good fighter.

He will never fight Manny Pacquiao as his advisers are not silly and Floyd Mayweather may have to wait and any idera of a fight put on the back burner until Mayweather has got older and slower and thus less competition to Khan..

So, Amir has British blood and Haroon Pakistani blood...........weird.

Haroon is not so good at boxing so had to go for the second choice? If anything this is further proof if it were needed that Amir Khan is English.

Am fairly indifferent in my opinion over Khan, but from what i read it was a cracking fight. Just about to watch it so hope to enjoy it

Where can I get my blood tested to make sure it's British? I'm worried mine might be impure.

If he wore a Union Jack gum shield and a Pakistani flag would you doubt his allegiance to Pakistan?

Is it not possible to have affinity to more than one country?
