Former champion Amir Khan (29-3, 19KOs) says IBF welterweight king Kell Brook, and his promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport, are in no position to call the shots on a possible fight in 2015.

Khan is back in action on Saturday night against former two-division champion Devon Alexander at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. If Khan wins, he will then likely become a frontrunner to face WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Brook is back at the end of February. Hearn has been trying to do everything possible to lure Khan into a big domestic fight, including an offer of 5 million.

"Like I said to everybody who asks me the question about me fighting Kell Brook, I’ll take the fight under my terms and my conditions. It’s under Amir Khan Promotions, we take control of everything we do, where the fight’s going to be," Khan told the Manchester Evening  News.

"I have a lot of respect for Kell being world champion and stuff, but I think, yeah, everything happens. It’s really an Amir Khan show and we want to do it the way we think is right, whatever we think is right. It’s funny, when I think you heard him saying 'I’ll give', I think it was $5 million."

"I mean, who is he telling me, when I'll go to all the countries? I’m the one who dictates what my opponent gets, not you dictating to me how much I get. Everything goes on my terms. That’s something they have to understand. He can’t tell me how much I’m getting paid. So, that’s why I find that a little disrespectful when he was telling how much I’ll be getting paid when I make my own purses when I fight these big fights."
