This is the silliest thing I have read all year! :palm

 

By Scott Gilfoid: 

Amir Khan will be walking into the ring this Saturday night wearing expensive $50,000 boxing trunks for his clash with American Devon Alexander (26-2, 14 KOs) at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The trunks have crocodile trim and 24 carat gold thread around the waist.
The reason for Khan wearing the expensive trunks is anyone’s guess. You could say perhaps that Khan is wearing the expensive trunks to put himself in the class of fighters like Floyd Mayweather Jr.

 

 

While Khan doesn’t have the resume and track record to be put in with Mayweather in terms of talent and experience, he can always wear an expensive wardrobe like the American star. That in turn could help Khan gain attention from the judges in the fight, because with him wearing gold/crocodile trunks, it may be difficult for the judges to keep their eyes off of Khan.  :pms

 

In theory, this could help Khan if any of the rounds or close and the judges have to make a decision who to give the round to. If the judges have their eyes mostly on Khan due to his expensive trunks, :pms then they could wind up giving him rounds that might otherwise be given to Alexander.
