BOLTON boxing superstar Amir Khan has posted a photo of himself on Facebook with a shisha pipe shaped like an AK-47 assault rifle.
The former world champion uploaded the photo to his Facebook page, alongside a message that read: “AK with an AK Shisha. I don't smoke it. But I saw it and decided to take u all a pic."
The picture has so far received more than 41,000 likes — as well as more than 1,200 comments.
The image has received a mixed response from fans, however, with a comment from Shahid Ulhaq saying: “Please do not promote the hazardous things to your fans, they may be under age.”
Shahzad Muhammad added: “Don’t do this Amir.”
But other posters have leapt to the boxer’s defence.
Umar Khilji commented: “It's just a sheesha in a shape of an AK and his initials are AK so what? Give him a break — he isn't promoting violence or shisha for that matter.”
