Boxing is a violent sport. It is natural for someone to be fearful of getting punched in the face for a living. Though, the former light-welterweight champion, Amir Khan, thinks that there are far more petrifying things in the world. Khan retired from the sport of boxing last year but is still in the public limelight. Not to mention, he has dabbled in various vocations apart from boxing.
Moreover, he has also been featured as a contestant in the British reality show, “I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here” in which a group of celebrities live together in extreme conditions. Khan revealed his “fiercest opponent” to date, and no it isn’t a professional boxer.
