Amir Khan: I've spoken to Mayweather's manager about fight
Amir Khan says Floyd Mayweather's manager told him "let's get that fight on" after the American beat Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas.
Mayweather took his unbeaten record to 48 fights with a points victory over Pacquiao.
Khan, who takes on former light-welterweight world champion Chris Algieri on 30 May, says he has also been invited to fight Pacquiao.
"I'm in a position where I could face either but I want Mayweather," he said.
Khan has also revealed that Mayweather's manager, Len Ellerbe, approached him after Saturday's fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
He said: "Financially they know it will be a big fight and it will be an exciting fight.
"I think Mayweather's team want the fight - but I've spoken to Manny's team and they've said the same thing, that they want a fight."
