Come and meet Amir Khan on August 15

ON Saturday August 15, Leicester will be treated to something very special when former two-time world champion, Amir Khan, will be in town for an exclusive Q&A evening at Leicester City Football Club.

Khan, who won the first of his two light-welterweight world belts in 2009, says about his visit to Leicester: “I’m really looking forward to visiting the multi-cultural city in August to share the stories of my boxing career in a room full of boxing and sports fans”.

And Khan has no plans of stopping as talks continue for him to fight the undefeated world champion, Floyd Mayweather.

We have K Kong Events to thank for putting on this special evening after hosting many successful events over the past few years which has seen Leicester greeted by the likes of Mike Tyson, Vinnie Jones and Paul Merson, to name a few.

Shane Whitfield, Founder and Managing Director of K Kong Events says: “Amir Khan is an incredible sportsman and boxing champion with many stories to tell and so I’m excited that we’ve been able to get him to come to Leicester for an exclusive Q&A with our guests.”

The evening will be hosted in the Walkers Hall at Leicester City Football Club, which is expected to sell-out fast. Tables of 12 are available from £650 or individual tickets are £65 per person, with the opportunity to meet the man himself.
