I’m writing about the story of Amir Khan.
Amir Khan is a hard working, twenty-first-century hero: a standard bearer for his Pakistani heritage, his Lancashire upbringing and the future of British boxing.
At just seventeen he won the silver at the 2004 Olympics
In the Athens and when he turned professional in 2005 he won his first fight in 109 seconds. Tickets to his first fights sell out in hours and he is watched by millions on prime time television. But his feet are still firmly on the ground- he lives at home with his parents in Bolton, fasts in the holy month of Ramadan and can sometimes be spotted helping out his uncle and aunties curry house.
