Amir Khan has urged IBF Welterweight champion Devon Alexander to sign up to a world title fight.
Khan has his sights set on winning a world title at a second weight by stepping up to 147lbs against the American southpaw before the end of the year, with his team putting Dubai forward as a possible venue.
"We are looking at December 7 for my next fight and looking at opponents," said Khan.
"I have tried to get Devon Alexander. It was looking promising. He said he wanted to fight at the start and now it slowly seems that he is not 100 per cent sure about it, coming up with excuses.
"Even if it's not in Dubai, I will fight him in America, I will fight him wherever."
Khan's ultimate goal is to become the first man to beat Floyd Mayweather Jr and feels the Alexander bout would set up a glamour fight. [Click Here To Read More]
