Amir Khan is continuing his vocal campaign to be the next opponent for Floyd Mayweather Jr. in September, most recently noting that Mayweather, the highest-paid athlete in professional sports, would see a swell in his fan base by facing the British-born Khan.

"Financially it makes sense. It's going to help Floyd's fan base, especially in other parts of the world like Pakistan, India, Dubai, and the U.K.," Khan said. "The U.K. fans want it. Obviously people in Pakistan would love to see that fight and I can only imagine having a press conference there. The same with Dubai."

While Khan makes sense in terms of name value, and recent resume, his latest fight didn't inspire much confidence that he has what it takes to hand Mayweather the first loss of his career. Khan cites his fast hands as the biggest reason he can solve Mayweather's defense, but while he showed them off vs. Chris Algieri on May 29, he also was rocked several times by a fighter that Manny Pacquiao floored six times.

"I can definitely promise you that a different Amir Khan will show up in my next fight," Khan said. "I will be a different fighter. It was just a bad night against Algieri. We got the win, which is the main thing. But it wasn't the best performance."

Khan admitted that part of why he didn't shine vs. Algieri was that he was surprised by Algieri's approach. The normally fleet-footed Algieri decided to plant his feet, be aggressive, and muck up the fight. He was successful in establishing the pace, and he cracked Khan with a number of hard right hands; coincidentally, the right hand is the greatest weapon in Mayweather's arsenal.
