Amir Khan has taken to his Instagram page to show off his chiselled abs after his last sparring session before his grudge match against Kell Brook, claiming he is “ready for war.”
The 35-year-old Bolton boxer will be facing his nemesis in their long-awaited grudge match on Saturday and you cannot argue that he doesn't look the part.
Khan posted an image in which he was donning his training shorts and shoes with his hands placed on his hips revealing his ripped six pack. The image was captioned: “Last hard spar done. Ready for war #Feb19.”
Khan’s story also featured some training videos taken at the Amir Khan Academy in his hometown.
The boxer shared his schedule for the next week which sees him taking part in a public workout on Wednesday and a press conference on Thursday before the weigh-in on Friday and the big fight on Saturday.
The fight will be taking place at the Manchester Arena for a crowd of 20,000 fans and is Khan’s 40th fight in his professional career. He is determined to finally put an end to his rivalry with Special K with an undoubtable victory.

Speaking ahead of the fight, in their Sky Sports: The Gloves Are Off debate, Khan said: “I’ve got everything. Better looks, better speed, better power, the engine, the chin. Both of us might not be the best at taking the best shots which is the honest truth. I’m speaking honestly. Those eye sockets are not going to help, are they?”
Khan had previously said: “I think it comes down to how hard you’ve worked and how hard I’ve worked going into this fight.
"Obviously with the great sparring, great game plan we have for this fight, I’m just going to go in there and hurt Kell. That’s what I want to do. I don’t want to go in there and just box him, I want to go in there to hurt him and to put him away.
"He’s already got smashed up eye sockets, he's already been beaten, knocked out. This is the time now where I finish his career off, so he never needs to look at boxing again. This is going to be a nice payday for you, Kell Brook, so you get this payday and walk away. Leave the sport happy.”
All eyes will be on the ring as the hugely anticipated fight is set to begin at approximately 10:30pm.
