Haroon Khan't Wait to Get in the Ring Again on Dec 14Th Haroon Khan’t wait to get in the ring again on Dec 14th following Bulgarian blitzing BOLTON (Nov 18) – Haroon Khan will bounce right back into action next month in Wigan following his demolition of Bulgarian Stefan Slavchev. The Bolton youngster looked calm and assured in the ring last Friday night at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens as he patiently broke down his 20-year-old compatriot who had no answers to the succession of quick flurries and powerful right hands that kept landing throughout. The 2010 Commonwealth Games bronze medalist returns to the ring on December 14th in Wigan after moving to a record of 3-0 following his victory over Slavchev. Khan showed tremendous maturity in his recent outing as he picked away at his opponent and circled him over the course of the fight, refusing to waste any shots, and smart enough to avoid getting carelessly caught by rushing in. His patience over the four rounds was telling, as he continuously pushed back his opponent, who went into his shell after feeling the young super-flyweight’s power. The 22-year-old, younger brother of former unified light- welterweight world champion Amir Khan, continues to show that he has inherited the same exciting boxing genes as his older sibling. The future is bright for one of Britain’s top young prospects who is looking forward to jumping straight back into the ring again as he looks to make moves on the domestic circuit. “I’m pleased with how I did against Stefan Slavchev but now I’m looking to the future and December 14th,” said Khan. “It was great to get another win under my belt and I’m aiming for a similar performance in Wigan next month. My team are looking to move me at a good pace and the level of competition is going to keep getting better as I progress but I’m ready for that challenge,” he said. “It was good to have Amir ringside for my last fight – that gave me a big boost. His insight, along with Oliver Harrison and his team gives me a solid foundation to really push on over the coming months,” Khan added. The opponent for Haroon’s next fight and ticket details will be announced in due course..

He felt dismayed at the prospects of inviting international players after the country’s track record of security and terrorism. Feeling nostalgic about the cricket in Pakistan, Sethi went through the PCB’s documents and shockingly discovered that PCB is generating no revenue like it used to do until 2009. He was well aware of the fact cricket is the sport that is Pakistan’s blood, and every nook and cranny is yearning for live cricket in Pakistan—comparing it with other countries like India, where IPL generates staggering revenues and proved the bordering country with amazement and thrill every year. Indians remain excited that the IPL will continue every year and they will witness the spectacle of deadly yorkers and loft sixes very soon. Sethi feels every other cricket- loving nation have their own leagues like County Cricket, Big Bash League, Sri Lankan Premier League, Caribbean Premier League, etc.

  • 2010 Commonwealth Games Bronze Medalist Haroon Khan Continues Professional Jounrey Against Stefan Slavchev in Blackpool
    2010 COMMONWEALTH GAMES BRONZE MEDALIST HAROON KHAN CONTINUES PROFESSIONAL JOUNREY AGAINST STEFAN SLAVCHEV IN BLACKPOOL BOLTON (Oct 31) – Hot prospect Haroon Khan (2-0, 1 KO) will step back into the ring in Blackpool on Friday November 15th against 20-year-old Bulgarian, Stefan Slavchev (3-8, 1 KO), as he continues his march towards the top. The 2010 Commonwealth Games bronze medalist has made a blazing start to his professional career after making the leap into the paid ranks earlier this year, scoring a win over the tricky Brett Fidoe before knocking out Vincente Medellin in a sensational performance in Atlantic City. As the younger brother of former unified world champion, Amir Khan, the talented super-flyweight possesses much of the same skill set, including his quick hands and thrilling combinations. He now goes into battle in his third fight against a well schooled opponent in Slavchev, at Blackpool’s Winter Gardens, leading the lineup in a stacked card that features no less than fourteen exciting bouts. ”I’m very pleased that my opponent has now be confirmed,” said Haroon. “Now I can start working on some specific things with my trainer Oliver Harrison in order to prepare for him. I know Stefan will be coming to get the win so I’ll need to be at my sharpest and make sure I’m ready. Training has gone great and I can see the improvements I’m making all the time in the gym. I can’t wait for November 15th because I’m ready to put on a great performance.” Tickets for Haroon’s clash, which also features a jam-packed card put together by VIP Boxing Promotions, start at just £30 or £60 ringside.

  • Un/Making the British Asian Male Athlete: Race, Legibility and the State
    Un/making the British Asian male athlete: race, legibility and the state Abstract This article explores the social construction of the British Asian male sport star. It foregrounds an analysis of the racial state, primarily its biopolitical function in (re)affirming racialised models of citizenship and contemporary hierarchies of belonging. Drawing on conceptualisations of legibility, the article argues that this relationship between race and the state is necessary to understand the processes by which such athletes are made intelligible in the popular imagination. Empirically, the article focuses on the articulations, experiences and performativity of British Asian Muslim international cricketer, Moeen Ali, during the summer of 2014. It suggests that these examples reflect the contestation and de/legitimisation of various forms of social, cultural and political attachment and embodiment within the public sphere. The article argues that the extent to which athletes such as Ali are made il/legible in sport is linked inextricably to the way in which British Asians and British Muslims are made il/legible in society. Finally, the article considers the spaces, contexts and discourses within which British Asian athletes can(not) represent themselves; and the dominant forms of being, speaking and thinking with which they must conform to meet the requirements of elite sporting citizenship. Key words British Asians; British Muslims; Legibility; Race; Sport; State 1 “Here to stay, here to play”: Moeen Ali, governmentalities of nation and the contested politics of (sporting) citizenship1 “You’re playing for England, Moeen Ali, not your religion” – Michael Henderson, The Telegraph, June 2014. “I am a Muslim, yes, but I am also very English.

  • L2 Amir Khan Comprehension.Pdf
    Amir Khan Adapted from http://worldcelebsbiography.blogspot.com/2011/04/world‐light‐welterweight‐boxing.html Name _________________ Date __________ Amir Khan was born in Bolton in early December 1986. He showed early promise as a boxer, and in 2003 he won a gold medal at the AAU Junior Olympic Games, closely followed by another gold medal at the European Student Championship in 2004. This early interest was encouraged by his father Shah Khan, who considered his son a born fighter and was confident that his son could be very successful at his chosen sport. At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Khan won a silver medal at the age of 17. Khan won the WBA World Light-Welterweight World Championship title, defeating Andreas Kotelnik in a unanimous decision over 12 rounds in July 2009. He is also the former Commonwealth lightweight champion, WBO Inter-Continental lightweight champion, and WBA International lightweight champion. Background Khan spent his early years supporting his local soccer team, Bolton Wanderers whilst attending Smithills school. This early support has since been repaid by the club who have allowed Khan to use their training facilities. Amir's parents hail from the Punjab province of Pakistan, Rawalpindi and as a result he can speak Urdu and Panjabi in addition to his native English. He has a younger brother Haroon Khan who is also an amateur boxer; and his first cousin, Sajid Mahmood is an English cricketer. Amateur The early amateur career of Khan was distinguished and at the age of 17 he won an Olympic Silver Medal from the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens.
