Amir Khan Master Thread

Amir Khan tells how David Cameron sorted his visa problems

When Amir Khan was denied entry to the United States last September, there was one man he immediately thought to call.

Luckily for him, British Prime Minister David Cameron was not too busy to pick up the phone to the Olympic silver medallist and former world champion.

"They told me my visa was refused and I couldn't get on the plane. I rang him and said I had a bit of a problem," Khan explained in The Times.

"He said 'hold on a minute', then he called me back and it was sorted."

Cameron's intervention allowed Khan to fly to Las Vegas to commentate on the fight between Floyd Mayweather and Marcos Maidana.

And former light-welterweight world champion Khan says Cameron is not his only heavyweight political ally.

"I also met (former US secretary of state) Hillary Clinton in Washington and she asked me if I'd had problems, took my name and I haven't had problems [entering the US] since," Khan said.

pretty cool, I hear there are some Russia ****** MMA fighters who struggle getting back into the US for title fights but the thought of Khan being on some kind of no fly list is
hilarious

Khan does have some great stories.

David Cameron's a good guy who wants the best for everyone in this country. In 2015 I'll be voting for Nigel Farage and UKIP and it will probably be a Conservative majority or a Con/UKIP coalition that wins.

I don't see any American boxers ringing up their corporate puppet president for instant access to another country,

Don't worry, you'll still get your dole money when Labour get absolutely slayed at the next election thanks to the SNP stealing all their Scottish voters and the majority of the country wanting us out of the European Union.

UKIP are possibly the biggest embarrassment to the UK and that's in a Khan thread, this might just implode my mind.

You're absolutely delusional.

Khan does a lot for charities all over the UK, and has done a lot for British boxing with opening up a gym and a community center

Its the least David Cameron can do, who imo is a great man.


By the way Nigel Fartage is a twonk, he simply replaced Nick Griffin as the poster child for inbred tossers
