AMIR KHAN, from Olympic gory to wedding bells: by Brian Zelley
Boxer Amir Khan weds in New York:
Boxing champ Amir Khan is a married man
after wedding his fiancee in a lavish
New York ceremony.
For Amir Khan, it has been an
interesting nine years since Olypmic
Glory in Athens.
So what are the highlights of his
boxing journey before 2004 would be a logical question, and his
post 2008 Olympic moment would be another part of the story.

* To get a butter understanding of the journey, one needs to step back in time
to that glorious year of 2004. One seasoned reporter by the name of
Paul Vallely did a piece on Amir Khan with a well chosen headline:
"Bolton Lads Club cheers on a home grown hero - the boxer Amir Khan"
