Khan stakes his claim on boxing history

AMIR KHAN set himself a seven-year target to become the richest fighter in British boxing history after ending his amateur career with an emphatic revenge win over Mario Kindelan.

Khan announced shortly after his 19-13 victory over the Cuban great at Bolton’s Reebok Stadium that he had signed a three-year, seven-figure professional deal with promoter Frank Warren.

And the ambitious 18-year-old said he intended to claim a world title and become a legend before hanging up his gloves at the age of 25.
