'Fighting Brook uninteresting' - Khan

Wednesday, June 03 2015 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Amir Khan says he has 'no interest' in fighting IBF welterweight champion and fellow Briton Kell Brook. Khan instead is focusing his efforts on a lucrative clash with Floyd Mayweather.

    Script:


    SOUNDBITE (English): Amir Khan (on fighting Kell Brook):

    "I have no interest just yet, he is not on my radar at the moment so I am not looking at that fight. I am looking at big names, it is about names now, I have won numerous belts in the game of boxing so it is about names now, having someone like Miguel Cotto or (Juan Manuel) Marquez. You have got some big names there who I can face as I'm in one of the most exciting divisions in the world, so let's see."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Amir Khan (on fighting Floyd Mayweather):

    "I have had 34 fights now so I have proven I am ready for a long time, but you are always going to have critics and people who are trying to put you down, but the guys Mayweather is fighting I have beaten most of them, the likes of Victor Ortiz, they have fought Mayweather and yet I have already beaten them so I would like to have my chance. Mayweather had some close fights against them so how would he do against Amir Khan who beat those guys comfortably. I think in time it will happen but at the moment I will sit back and lay low and let my team make that decision, and if it comes off them it comes off, we have the same advisor so let's just see".
