Amir Iqbal Khan (Urdu: عامر اقبال خان; born 8 December 1986) is a British professional boxer. He is a former unified light-welterweight world champion, having held the WBA (later Super) title from 2009 to 2012, and the IBF title in 2011. At a regional level, he held the Commonwealth lightweight title from 2007 to 2008. He also held the WBC Silver welterweight title from 2014 to 2016, and once challenged for a middleweight world title in 2016.
As an amateur, Khan won a silver medal in the lightweight division at the 2004 Olympics, becoming, at the age of 17, Britain's youngest boxing Olympic medallist. He is also one of the youngest ever British professional world champions, winning the WBA title at the age of 22. In 2007, he was named ESPN prospect of the year. In July 2011, the International Business Times ranked Khan as the world's 8th best active boxer, pound for pound, while BoxRec ranked him 13th best, pound for pound, in April 2016.
