Amir Khan is hoping to get a September 12 date with Floyd Mayweather. This is a fight he has been chasing for years.
Amir Khan has been calling out quite a few people as of late.
"There are options out there for me. I would love to fight Miguel Cotto. Stylistically, he would be a good opponent for me and would suit me," Khan told Bolton News.
Khan is also interested in Canelo Alvarez. "Saul Alvarez is another big name I could fight. But he fights at 154 and maybe that is something for me towards the end of my career when I am bigger." I guess Khan didn't know that Cotto fights at 160 now.
What about a matchup with fellow Brit Kell Brook?
"Facing Kell Brook could be of interest down the line. That's for the future, though, I am not focusing on them at present because there are other bigger names out there for me. I didn't watch his fight against Frankie gavin because as far as I was concerned it was always going to be another walk in the park fight for Brook."
"It is not like the opponents I fought when I was world champion. One day it will happen because it would be a big fight for the fans in the UK and I would like to have a big fight in front of them again in the future."
