BOXING champ Amir Khan is planning to marry a student who he has met only four times in a six-month whirlwind romance.
Amir, 24, plans to pop the question to 20-year-old Faryal Makhdoom next year.
He then wants to get hitched in 2013. Faryal — who studies political science and journalism in New York — recently posted a picture of Amir on Facebook and wrote: "My soon 2b fiancé!"
Last night a source close to the couple said: "Amir has always kept his love life quiet, but he wants to get engaged next year and they'd probably marry the following year.
"We knew it was serious when he suddenly changed his Facebook status to 'in a relationship'."
Amir — the WBA Super and IBF Light Welterweight Champion — was introduced to Faryal by pals in London.The boxer, from Bolton, arranged for both sets of parents to meet in Washington DC last month.
The source added: "They all got on brilliantly and Amir has told his mum and dad, 'She's the one for me.'
"Amir couldn't be happier. She's very genuine, down-to-earth — a real good girl."
Amir defends his world titles against Lamont Peterson in Washington in December.
