Amir Khan preparing for Floyd Mayweather bout

Great Britain's Amir Khan has revealed that he is preparing to take on WBC World Welterweight Champion Floyd Mayweather.

However, the 24-year-old from Bolton believes that he is not quite ready to take on the boxer dubbed 'Pretty Boy' just yet.

"I'm working towards the [Floyd] Mayweather fight and in a couple of fights I will be ready," Khan said on Twitter.

"There's only one way of beating him, and his last few opponents all picked the same gameplan, which was wrong.

"Love me or hate me I'm gonna get to the top and do whatever I have to do to get there."

Khan has won 26 of 27 career fights.
