A well-known boxer from Bolton has hinted at returning to boxing after a two-year break.
Amir Khan hinted at a return to boxing in the early hours of June 2nd on X (formerly Twitter).
His final fight was in February 2022, when he returned after a three-year break from boxing to face longtime rival Kell Brook.
Khan lost the bout by technical knockout.
Last night, YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul tweeted that he'd like to see Khan fight fellow YouTuber and boxer KSI.

The Bolton-born boxer replied: “If he's dead he's dead. Then go and kill Jake Paul.”

Paul added that Khan would “kill” KSI in a fight and then he could fight him himself and “beat the crap out of” Khan.
Kahn's response was, “Send your contact information or go back to Disney,” referencing Paul's previous roles as Dark Man and Bizaardvark in the Disney Original Series.
Later, in the early hours of Sunday morning, Khan posted two more tweets: “The King is back, news coming soon…” and “Easy money.”
His boxing nickname is “King Khan.” He has not elaborated on those comments since.
