    Amir Khan meets Floyd Mayweather

    Amir Khan has been taking tips from P4P legend Floyd Mayweather ahead of his next fight.

    Khan, due to box again in June, trained with the world number one in Las Vegas last week.

    He was also put through his paces by Mayweather's trainer, Roger Mayweather.

    It came when Khan was in the States to cheer on stablemate Joe Calzaghe in his "super fight" with Bernard Hopkins.

    The 21-year-old met Mayweather at a local gym, and was asked to join him in a training session.

    "It was a fantastic experience and Mayweather is a great guy," said Khan.

    The Commonwealth lightweight champion is now unbeaten in 17 fights, and says he wants to challenge for a world title by the end of the year.

    While in the States, he also came face to face with Juan Diaz, who recently lost to Nate Campbell on a split decision.

    The pair met at last Friday's weigh-in, standing side by side on the stage.

    Stay tuned for news on Khan's next fight, details of which will be announced shortly.

    That's exactly who Amir Khan needs to be getting tips from.

    For the style of fighter he is Floyd should take dude under his wing.

      He's always talked about meeting Mayweather, it seems like he's a big fan of his.

          Little does Floyd know he's secretly spying for Team Hatton. :-x

                I remember Amir claimed last year he'd be willing to fight Mayweather in a 4 rounder, 1m on the line and winner takes all. LOL!

                  Could Khan beat Mayweather in a 4 round amateur contest. Probably.

                    Warren would have something to say about that. When does Khans contract end with Warren?
