Boxer Amir Khan is shocked for receiving “All The Hate” for celebrating Christmas
Pakistan-origin British boxer Amir Khan has been a recent victim of online trolls and was stumped by the hateful reactions he got for posting Christmas wishes on his social media platforms.
Boxer a day ahead of Christmas posted a photo along with his wife and kids in “Christmas outfits”. “Wishing you a magical and blissful holiday! Merry Christmas #khanfamily @FaryalxMakhdoom #MerryChrismas,” Amir Khan captioned the post.
However, his post did not go down well with his fans and followers. And the boxer drew a lot of criticism for celebrating the Christian festival despite being a Muslim.
