Amir Khan is adamant that his upcoming world-title fight with Danny Garica is more important than the grudge match between David Haye and Derek Chisora.

Amir Khan has insisted that his world light-welterweight title bout with Danny Garcia will overshadow the controversial fight between David Haye and Derek Chisora.

Both contests are scheduled for this Saturday, and while Haye and Chisora may have dominated the headlines, Khan is adamant that his fight is more important due to what is at stake.

"People know the difference, especially boxing fans, they know my fight is a lot bigger because there's two world titles on the line," Khan said.

"David is a good friend of mine but the fight is not as big a fight. There are no world titles on the line and I don't think Chisora is a top-10 [fighter] in the world.

"The guy I'm fighting, Danny Garcia, is a top-10 in the world so it makes it more fun to watch for the fans."

Khan and Garcia will clash in Las Vegas hours after Haye and Chisora meet at Upton Park in a fight sanctioned by the Luxembourg Boxing Federation.
