To which Khan responded: 'Bro stfu. He's a boxing fan and complimented the WBC watch only for fighters got gifted today. So I gave him mine. Move.'
Eminem is a man of little emotions in public, so it was hard to tell how happy he was to receive the watch, though Amir Khan filmed the 51-year-old saying that he was a big boxing fan on his Instagram story.
