IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan came out and finally said it that this Saturday’s fight against Lamont Peterson will be his last fight at 140lbs. Khan plans on moving up in weight immediately after this fight to the welterweight division (147lbs) and he hopes to get a fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr. shortly after he moves up in weight next year. Khan was asked in an interview by MMA Nation whether he would be agreeable to a fight against Miguel Cotto and Khan said “Yeah, definitely, I’d fight him at 147.”
