Aminado si Briton boxing superstar Amir Khan na ayaw siyang labanan ni pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. subalit duda siya sa pahayag nito na haharapin si eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao at kung hindi matutuloy ay siya ang hahamon sa Pinoy boxer.

Sa panayam ni James Robson ng Manchester Evening News sa London, dismayado si Khan sa patuloy na pag-iwas sa kanya ni Mayweather kahit matagal nang niluluto ni Golden Boy promoter Oscar De La Hoya ang kanilang sagupaan.

"I can't do any thing- that's Floyd. That's the type of guy Floyd is. He's the boss and you just agree with what he says. It doesn't do me any favors at all," ani Khan. "Nobody can do anything, it's up to Floyd. At the end of the day he might just say ‘I don’t want to fight you – I want to fight somebody else’.”

Naniniwala si Khan na malaking problema ni Mayweather ang kanyang estilo kaya iniiwasan siya ng hambog na Amerikano kaya hahamunin na lamang niya si Pacquiao.

“It could be because of my speed, explosiveness and power. Floyd is probably thinking, ‘Why fight someone like Amir Khan who is going to be giving me a lot of problems, who is going to be punching me a lot.’ Mayweather only throws 300 punches a whole fight. I probably throw that in one round,” ani Khan. “He’s probably thinking ‘I can go for the easier fight.’ I can’t see Mayweather-Pacquiao fight happening. I just can’t see it happening. If it’s not Mayweather then I’ll have a fight with Pacquiao.”

“This time last year, I was very close to getting a fight with Mayweather. It didn’t happen but now I’ve proven myself, I think that fight would be ideal for me. I think I’ve got the style to cause him a lot of problems,” dagdag ng Briton. “Then at the end of the year I’d love the Manny Pacquiao fight - I think that fight could definitely happen and I’d be confident I could win that. I think it’s a great time to catch those guys.”
