Amir Khan has staked his claim to fight Floyd Mayweather after telling the ring legend he needs a "real challenge" for his next exhibition venture.
The British star announced his retirement from boxing just weeks ago after losing to bitter rival Kell Brook in April. Closing the chapter after 27 years in the sport, Khan insisted he was done with fighting but has backtracked after calling for an exhibition bout with Mayweather.
Speaking after Mayweather's exhibition against Don Moore last weekend, Khan told Aziz DXB: "We saw the event today, I think Floyd needs a real challenge. We should do it. 100 per cent guys, let's make it happen. I'm calling him out. Either hit me up or hit my brother [Tam Khan] up."
