    Just watching the reality show Meet the Khans: Big in Bolton. Begs the question if Amir Khan is still relevant? Says he still has some fights left in him.

    He is relevant enough to have some high profile, entertaining fights. Not relevant enough to get a title shot though.

    But he has name value for sure

    His wife Faryal seems much more interesting in the show. Amazing she left New York and moved to Bolton and stayed.

    No, but he’s got the Brook grudge match on deck for one or two final pay days.

    I am sure it helps but New York to Bolton is a massive leap so I think she does love him.

    No, not relevant. His future role in the sport, should he choose to continue his career, is to serve as cannon fodder for up and comers looking for an easy KO

    From New York to Bolton... Bolton.

    Unfortunately it might be considered. They would say Khan lost due to a low blow in his nuts.
