Episode Details

Amir Iqbal Khan is a British professional boxer and philanthropist. In this Chapter, Anas strips Amir of all his medals and titles, bringing the ‘true’ Amir to the forefront; the simple and laidback human being. Amir walks Anas through his childhood and how he got introduced to boxing in the first place; how a father’s modest attempt at calming down his energetic son led to a champion. He describes how he pulled through one of the darkest phases in his life; a time when he thought he had lost everything. Amir opens up about the skepticism he faced, his coping mechanism as a young Olympian, and how fame and fortune put his dearest relationships to the test, including his marriage.
