Amir Khan has been named 2011 British Boxer of the Year, beating the likes of Carl Froch and Ricky Burns.
The 24-year-old has recorded a number of successful wins during the year, including a sensational bout against Zab Judah in July and a convincing victory over undefeated European champion Paul McCloskey.
"I'm very proud to have won the British Boxer of the Year Award," said Khan. "It means a lot to me to be recognised with this award and gives me the motivation to strive for even more success in my career.
"I would like to thank my team and fans for helping me pick up this award, without their help I would not be able to reach the levels I have over the last year.
"Freddie Roach, my trainer, has been a key figure in helping me become a unified world champion and I'm sure that the next 12 months will get even better for me."
The Bolton-born fighter recently revealed that he is targeting a clash against Floyd Mayweather within the next year.
