The Olympic Spirit

It is reported that Britain's Olympic boxing hero Amir Khan, who won silver today, has turned down the chance to become a professional boxer; opting instead to remain as an amateur fighter, for at least the next two years.



His performances in the ring in Athens have been likened to Muhammad Ali.



He has indicated that he wishes to fight in the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
