The July UK Esquire is devoted to all things sport. Amir Khan—one of the most promising and and surely one of the most handsome of Britain's new crop of fighters—is the cover.
The 22-year-old IBF inter-continental light welterweight champion will fight Ukranian Andreas Kotelnik on July 18—and has been teased about his pretty "boy" reputation. " Khan dismisses Kotelnik 's trash talking: "We will see who the child is ... I'm going to give him a boxing lesson."
WHEN YOU JUMP, the cover and more skin. Pretty "boy" or not, there is nothing like a man with some confidence, right?
never heard of him until now but THANK you! headed over to google and flickr for more pics, lol
and please don't get hit in the face Amir baby!

Amir Khan is Pakistani? Or Indian?
Whatever he is, I agree that he is very easy on the eyes :)

I am in Central NJ and I cannot tell you the new-found affection and appreciation that I have for men of the Middle Eastern region.
I see brothers like this everyday and its almost unnerving to see BROWN/DARK men with STRAIGHT black hair. My level of wow for men of the diaspora has expanded and I am glad to see it growing even wider on Rod 2.0! DO THE DANG THANG!
Thanks for this cover. It makes me wish I could be in NYC some days to do my 20 magazines/monthly pile-up!

@ Bourbon Street:
Amir Khan is BRITISH.
He is from Bolton near Manchester.
Amir's family is from Punjab, Pakistan. My family is also from Punjab but I grew up near London. Amir Khan is an inspiration to many Asian Britons.
As always, thanks Rod. Some of the other gay blogs are more interested in RPat inside the magazine.

@BourbonStreet. He is British Asian, his parents are from Punjab in Pakistan, he was born and raised in Bolton, an area of Manchester, England, and I've always thought he was fine. Yessiree I've had my eyes on him for some time now.

Yes…my friends! Don’t limit one self – the Middle East has some phine men. Been there had a great time – and they love them some people of color, particularly, black Americans. Jordan, Lebanon, and even Tel Aviv (there are some dark Jewish brothas too). Too many pretty ones to be getting killed.
