Boxing
Amir Khan retired.
It’s time to hang up my gloves. I feel blessed to have had such an amazing career that has spanned over 27 years. I want to say a heartfelt thanks and to the incredible teams I have worked with and to my family, friends and fans for the love and support they have shown me. pic.twitter.com/VTk0oxVjp2

Really happy both Kell and Amir called it after their fight now. Both had unbelievable careers and get out at the right time before boxing takes more from them.
