British boxer Amir Khan is to donate a £30,000 pair of shorts to help rebuild the Peshawar school where 141 children and staff were killed by the Taliban.

Boxer Amir Khan has pledged to donate a £30,000 pair of shorts to help rebuild the Peshawar school where 141 children and staff were killed by the Taliban.

The famed British fighter, who is of Pakistani origin, wore the apparel - which features a waistband made from 24-carat gold threading - in his points win against Devon Alexander.

Khan told BBC Sport: "It was just very sad to see innocent kids being killed. I want to donate the shorts for the Peshawar cause, rebuild a school and strengthen security around the area.

"I can only imagine what those parents are going through. We are very lucky in England, we have good security and I will be able to send my little girl to school and know she will be fine, but in Pakistan you cannot do that.

"They send the kids outside the house and do not know if they are going to come back. It's very sad to know that."

Khan became a father in May when his daughter Lamaisah was born.
