English professional boxer Amir Khan is finding new maturity as a fighter after taking responsibility for his brother Haroon's boxing career and moving to a different trainer.

According to The Daily Express, Khan has found another new perspective by guiding 22-year-old Haroon through the early stages of his professional career.

The 2010 Commonwealth Games bronze medallist said that he was promoting and managing Haroon and trying to get him on in America three more times this year, maybe once on the undercard of his fight and two more times working alongside other promoters.

Super-flyweight Haroon feels his older brother's experience will help him plot his way to the top, but he was surprised to see Amir looking so impassive when his mentor was watching him win his latest fight with a first-round stoppage in May, the report said.
