Forget the UK - he's similar to Pacquiao in ****stan. . . HUGE over there. . . He's pretty much the only big time muslim "combat sports" athlete in general. . . But yes, he's also very popular in UK, and actually in America is pretty popular too.
im ****stani and I could tell you Khan is hugeee for all of us.. he really is the pride of all ****stanis.. sucks that he's such a ***** but yeah.. he might be buying twitter followers and I've actually met amir and he came off as a real genuine dude.. my boy is opening up a gym in the central nj area and he said he was down to come hang out at the grand opening and everything.. seemed like a genuine dude but his character after he lost the peterson fight really showed... he's been handed way too much there's a reason mayweather wants to fight him and it's because he draws numbers.. but id say if i had to guess how many followers he should have it would be 475.. so a million is pretty high.
