Boxer Amir Khan’s knockout fiancee

-

Amir Khan has certainly scored a knockout. The boxer had an enormous smile on his face this week, and one look at his stunning fiancée shows why.

Khan, 25, and 20-year-old Faryal Makhdoom revealed their plans to marry earlier this month, and made it official this week by exchanging rings in front of 1,000 of their nearest and dearest at a lavish engagement party.

The couple celebrated with a £150,000 bash at the Bolton Wanderers' Reebok Stadium.

Friends watched as Amir presented his wife-tobe with a £100,000 (Rs. 18 million) platinum ring encrusted with three staggering diamonds.

In return, beautiful Faryal gave her beau an equally bling platinum ring.

After the party Amir tweeted: 'Amazing day, I'm so tired and my fiance faryal looked so beautiful and was very patient, everyone loved it, I love my ring faryal got me x' (sic)

Faryal wore a deep red sari and elaborate jewels to complement her stunning features.

During a visit to her family in New York earlier this month, Amir gushed over his love: 'A lot of girls back home have said to me, "Your girl is beautiful" - and that's great because people can be so jealous.'

The student and her family jetted into the UK for the engagement celebratio­ns and Faryal plans to move to Bolton following their wedding.

Amir shouldn't expect to see her beloved cheering ringside at any of his future matches.

Faryal says she 'never' wants to see her husband-to-be fight, and while he was losing to Lamont Peterson in December, she was back in the hotel room 'praying with his mother.'
