WBA light-welterweigh

Amir Khan, who will put his WBA light-welterweight belt on the line against Maidana on December 11, feels he is ready to move up a level and take on the elite names.

mir Khan is looking beyond next opponent Marcos Maidana and setting his sights on a super fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Mayweather is unbeaten in 41 fights and is the benchmark for the 140lb division, but Khan feels he could be able to tempt the American into putting his reputation on the line in the UK.
