When all has been said and done in the ring, boxers are just like the rest of us \u2013 they love a good party. <\/p>\n
Champagne flowing, music blaring, tunes ruined by horrible dancing in the middle of the nightclub floor \u2013 there's nothing like a good afterparty, particularly when it comes to boxing. However, in ultra-conservative Saudi Arabia, where alcohol is forbidden and bars and nightclubs are nowhere to be seen, those competing in the kingdom will have to improvise.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, former unified lightweight champion and British boxing legend Amir Khan has never been one to look to the bottle after a fight. Despite being surrounded by the glitz and glamour of Jeddah after his WBC international welterweight title victory over Billy Dib in 2019, his afterparty was a more laid back affair.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou want to know what the afterparty for me was like when I fought in Saudi Arabia?,\u201d Khan asked in an exclusive interview with Daily Star Sport<\/b>, speaking on behalf of Wow Hydrate. \u201cYou know what my after party was? <\/p>\n
\u201cWe all met at a restaurant, closed it down. We had loads of food, we ate and we had a nice shisha. I just chilled and had a nice shisha all night.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khan would have had plenty of energy to relax and enjoy his shisha, as he brutally stopped the Australian in the fourth round at King Abdullah Sports City. His rapid combination of punches resulted in Dibb\u2019s team throwing in the towel to end the fight.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, the conservative laws of Saudi Arabia means after parties are often a more laid back affair. It is a far cry to some of the other afterparties which find their way onto the social media pages of some of the most famous A-list celebrities on the planet.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sporting and celebrity royalty were all ringside for Tyson Fury\u2019s narrow victory over Francis Ngannou in Riyadh. But while the some of the most famous people on the planet were in the same space, Khan – who was also in Saudi Arabia to watch the fight – claims it wouldn't have been all that different to his party in 2019. <\/p>\n
\u201cAfter a fight, it\u2019s what I used to do [shisha] – but that\u2019s the only party you would have here,\u201d he added. \u201cThere are no nightclubs, there would not be any music. Then again, they might do a concert or something.\u201d<\/p>\n
