A group of thugs have come off second best after trying to steal a car from the wrong man.

Former world boxing champion, Amir Khan and his pugilist brother Haroon were set upon by a gang of six men after a night out in Birmingham.

The brothers were returning to Amir's $157,000 Range Rover when they were blocked in by the six men in their own four-wheel drive.

The Khan brothers stood their ground, fought back and the assailants were forced to flee the scene.

"One (of the men) slapped Amir and clipped him on the lip but Amir pulled back and knocked him out cold," a witness told The Sun newspaper.

"Then five of them went for Amir and Haroon but they stood their ground and these guys got dropped one by one.”

The witness said the Khan brothers were just defending their property."

Police were called out to the scene following reports of a fight but no one had come forward.

Amir plans to win back his world light-welterweight title but has also vowed to guide his younger brother to a world title.

    So they're still out there? Well, I guess they'll just have to pick someone weaker next time.

    This has made my day. 6 complete and utter nob shot wasters get wacked totally and utterly by some highly trained hard working people. Thats the way the world should always work. Those 6 goons should be utterly embarrassed that they are soo inadequate to live in todays world

    Brilliant! I wish it happened more often. I am so sick of suburban thugs terrorising ordinary people.
