Two time world champion boxer Amir Khan believes that Muhammad Ali was a People's champion as he was a great fighter and a great person outside the ring box.

Khan, who is currently training for his next fight against Devon Alexander on 13 December at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, said that he looks up to Muhammad Ali as he believed in his religion while helping others out, the Independent reported.

Calling Ali as one of the best, he said that if he had a chance to fight against him, he wouldn't have lasted a single round. Ali always had respect for other fighters, he added.
