It is good to see international personalities bring attention to atrocities committed by the terrorists in the country. The need of the hour is to stand united against all forms of terrorism.

It looks like the General will knock out Amir Khan without even trying.

By the way Amir Khan looks awesome in Pakistani clothes. It speaks volumes that he chose to wear these clothes. Shows he is a patriot and son of the land.

Amir Khan is a true Patriot that loves his country he reached the heights of fame but he is always humble about his Pakistani Roots , unlike some folks

Pakistan needs more "Humble" people like him

Very few people that have done so much positive for Pakistan from Athletic background

Imran Khan (Cricket)
Jhangir Khan and Jansher Khan (Squash World Champions LEGENDS)
Amir Khan (Boxing)
Javed Miandad (Cricket , Indians love him because his daughter married and Indian Family)

It is good to see international personalities bring attention to atrocities committed by the terrorists in the country. The need of the hour is to stand united against all forms of terrorism.
