Amir Khan in shocking Twitter clash after split from wife Faryal Makhdoom
Amir Khan is one of Britain's most famous boxers, and he and his wife Faryal Makhdoom were often seen looking glamorous at events.
However, they've not been without controversy, with cheating allegations and family feuds being a near-constant part of the relationship.
Things have got much, much worse though, after the pair announced their split today and Amir started a Twitter rant implying Faryal had cheated with none other than Anthony Joshua.
Faryal moved on quick. Always mentioned to me how much she wanted to be with another guy, from all people another boxer π @anthonyfjoshua pic.twitter.com/1GBAQnvzMC

Left my family and friends for this Faryal. I'm not hurt but another fighter. I'm making it public. You getting the divorce #Golddigger

Mans like Joshua can have my left overs!

He even tagged the heavyweight champ Joshua, in his tweets, suggesting he definitely means business
Instead of denying the rumours, however, Joshua tweeted this.

He was just joshing (get it?!), though, following it up with a bit more context to his racy Shaggy video.
Bantz aside, I hope you guys can resolve your situation or this is a hack as we have never even met! Plus I like my women BBW #ItWasntMe

Faryal quickly waded into the chat too, and she clearly wasn't happy - not only with the Joshua claims, but him calling her a gold-digger and suggesting she alienated him from his family.
I'm sure you left your family because they robbed you? Not because of me. Stop making false things up. https://t.co/UsjV52Hvsp

Accusing other boxers just because your boxing career is finished. Man up amir. https://t.co/ERAxgMo0i5

After all these years. I've always defending a cheat, always stuck around for him, always had his back. And I'm called a gold digger?
β Faryal Makhdoom Khan (@FaryalxMakhdoom) August 4, 2017
LOL! He's given me jack shit -- I pay house bills and bills for my daughter myself! It's like I'm a single mother while he's out messing
β Faryal Makhdoom Khan (@FaryalxMakhdoom) August 4, 2017
Around. And he has the nerve to blast me like that? The amount of evidence I have on you. It can destroy you. But since I loved you at one
β Faryal Makhdoom Khan (@FaryalxMakhdoom) August 4, 2017
Point in my life. I'll just let it go.

I'm not the one who's been in the papers every month with my pants down π Cheater!

Bad role model, always around women , alcohol and then he calls himself a Muslim and runs a charity.

He's in Dubai rightnow with a prostitude. While I'm getting accused of cheating? Treating the mother of his child like this , is sickening.

Well, that's awkward. Looks like Khan got a taste of his own medicine there.
He has yet to respond to Faryal. Maybe he just can't take the verbal bashing she's ready to dish out to him. Not to mention, it's not the wisest decision to start public beef with one of the world's greatest fighters.
We imagine he's feeling a bit like this right about now.
