Boxer feels he and colleague were picked on as ‘two Asian boys’ a week after the 20th anniversary of the 9/11
The British professional boxer Amir Khan has said he felt his removal from an American Airlines flight in the US was racially motivated.
Khan, who was born and raised in Bolton by his Pakistani parents, said he and his colleague were “picked on” because they were “two Asian boys” and it was a week after the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the US.
