It is pertinent to mention that last month Amir announced that he was bringing a team-based boxing league to his country of origin. “I’m bringing Super Boxing League to Pakistan this year and it will show the next generation of boxers,” Amir said in a video. “It’s going to be a month-long tournament; it will be really amazing and I’m looking forward to watching the talent of Pakistan. This is going to be big time. I really believe we have huge amount of talent but no one has ever pointed it. Hopefully, 2018 is going to be a big year for Pakistan boxing.”
Amir also divulged the details of this boxing league, which is not dissimilar to the Pakistan Super League – the annual cricket tournament that is widely popular in Pakistan. “I’ve named the teams: Islamabad Kings, Lahore Giants, Karachi Devils, Faisalabad Falcons, Multan Thunders, Peshawar Warriors and Quetta Stars,” he said. “There’s going to be six fighters in each team – five male and one female.”
