Khan disappointed with Mayweather’s decision in picking Berto

Amir Khan has shown his disbelieve and disappointment with Floyd Mayweather, as he once again overlooked the Bolton fighter to pick Andre Berto as his next opponent. Khan has been after the “Money” fight for yet 18 months but has stated that that there are many big fights remaining for him.

“I’m disappointed not to have got the fight for what is the third time after having been one of the frontrunners. However, there are many big fights out there for me and I’m going to continue working hard to establish myself at the top of the welterweight division.

Floyd Mayweather has fought the biggest names throughout his career and has earned the right to face whoever he chooses, “Khan said.

Khan remained humble in his wish for stable-mate Andre Berto, wishing him the best in the biggest fight of his career.

“I wish my stablemate Andre Berto and trainer Virgil Hunter the very best of luck in the fight. I have seen how hard Andre trains and works and know that he is ready to give Floyd a very tough night,” Khan stated.

Rumors surfaced that Khan had left Al Haymon’s advisory services, after Mayweather’s decision to pick Andre Berto, yet these claims have been refuted.
