Amir Khan hoping to meet with Floyd Mayweather Jr

Amir Khan has revealed that he hopes to sit down with Floyd Mayweather Jr when the American visits England next month.

The unbeaten Mayweather is visiting a number of venues throughout the country in a series of meet-and-greet events, and the Bolton-born fighter will look to negotiate a possible fight with 'Money' during his stay.

Khan told the Daily Star: "Maybe he is coming here because he is looking at a fight with me in the future. I don't know why he's coming to Bolton.

"If he didn't know me, I don't think he'd have heard of Bolton, so there must be some interest there for him to fight me? I don't know.

"When I heard he was coming to the Reebok [Stadium], it's only down the road from my house, so I thought I'll invite him. We can play a game of pool, but I am rubbish at that so we can have a game of Fight Night on the computer, so I can knock him out."

Khan was victorious in his last bout against Luis Collazo earlier this month.
