Via DailyMail:

Amir Khan is to do battle with Floyd Mayweather in the richest fight ever to involve a British boxer.

Bolton’s former Olympic hero will meet the greatest pound-for-pound fighter in the world in Las Vegas on May 3.

Khan’s share of this $200 million blockbuster is expected to be no less than $6m and is likely to climb to at least double that from pay-TV sales on both sides of the Atlantic.

The official announcement will be made in the next few days and Khan has already pulled out of his  challenge to world welterweight champion Devon Alexander, scheduled for December 7 in New York, to ensure that his dream fight with Mayweather is not jeopardised.

Khan is being given this opportunity of a lifetime thanks to a conviction in America that his exceptional speed will present a unique test to Mayweather, who has dealt imperiously with all threats from bigger and supposedly stronger foes.

UPDATE via TG:

Amir Khan’s representatives have denied a report that the boxer has withdrawn from a fight against Devon Alexander, scheduled for December, and will face Floyd Mayweather Jr in May.

“Team Khan would like to dispel recent reports that Amir Khan has pulled out of a potential match-up against Devon Alexander on December 7th, taking up a fight against Floyd Mayweather in May of next year instead,” a statement said.

“Contrary to this story, Amir Khan is currently in training camp in San Francisco with the aim of fighting again in December against Alexander once an agreement can be reached.”
