Boxer Amir Khan breaks all ties with family, claims they ripped him-off
Friday, March 24th, 2017 12:45:18 by fatimaarshadIn a recent bare-all interview, boxer Amir Khan revealed that he has parted ways with his family and has no contact with them anymore. According to the boxer, his own family used up all his money and took advantage of him. He also revealed that he will now choose a path which benefits ‘only him’.
Amir Khan’s father, Shah Khan, was previously part of his management team. However, the boxer has now dropped his father out and also formed an entire new team. In his upcoming fight with Filipino icon Manny Pacquio, Khan will be managed and trained by his new team.
“After the Canelo fight my old team thought ‘he’s had his big fight, he’s done now’,” Khan said speaking about the fight where he was knocked out unconscious in the ring for a full minute.
“So this is the chance for me now to prove everyone wrong. I’m not done. I’ve just turned 30, I’ve still got some good years left in me. It could be my time to shine.
“My old team will think I made the worst choice by letting them go and say ‘watch his career go down the drain’. I’m not going to let that happen. I’m looking forward to proving them wrong.”
Khan also revealed that at one point in his career, he accumulated £40m, but he says that he did not even know where the money went as it was quickly spent by his family.
He further lamented that people should have looked out for his interest as well but they kept spending his money like there was no tomorrow. He said that even he did not question his family because he trusted them but they eventually broke his trust.
Meanwhile Khan’s family has not spoken out in response to the allegations made by the boxer.
