Amir Khan refused to commit to a fight with Conor Benn after joining the young star in the ring after his latest KO victory.
Benn stopped Chris Van Heerden in the second round in Manchester when he sent the South African crashing to the canvas with a huge right hand. He has long targeted a domestic showdown with either Khan or with Kell Brook who has demanded £10million for the bout.
But Khan, who was stopped by Brook in February, appeared uncomfortable when the challenge was put to him. "I've just come here to enjoy the champ and to enjoy the boxing," he said. "Eddie [Hearn] told me to get in the ring but I'm just here to enjoy it. The champ put in a great performance and I'm sure he's going to have a great career. He'll go far in life and we'll support him."
