Britain’s Amir Khan, who produced a dominant performance to secure a unanimous points victory against American Devon Alexander in Las Vegas, is relishing his feat saying he would like to fight Floyd Mayweather.
After Khan, 28, dominated the early rounds, 27-year-old Alexander offered little until the eighth, when he managed to land a series of hooks.
But the clinical Bolton fighter remained in charge, and all three judges scored heavily in his favour.
Afterwards, Khan reiterated his desire to fight American Floyd Mayweather.
“I really believe I’ve earned my shot against the best boxer in the world and that’s Mayweather,” said Khan.
“He is the ideal fight for me. It would be a game of chess, but I would be too skilful. I have the skill and movement to beat him. He will not be able to hurt me.
“I feel better now than I did when I was 25. I’m dedicated to the sport and I know there’s a few years left in me. I’m going to try and force that fight with Mayweather.”
