Video: Amir Khan’s latest tactic to call out Floyd Mayweather involves a mask and a dreadful impression

Don't quit the day job

“Shut up and fight me!”

To be honest, Amir, you’re the only one talking…

Amir Khan won’t let up in his pursuit of what he describes as “the biggest fight in boxing.” And, whilst Floyd Mayweather moves closer to agreeing a fight with Manny Pacquiao, the Englishman is growing more desperate to be heard.

In an interview with boxing suppliers RDX, Khan stands before a mural of Mayweather which reads, “who are ya?” as he continues his chase of a bout with the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

The film crew prank the 28-year-old by donning masks of Floyd and surrounding him before Khan joins in on the act wielding a wad of cash and changing to a seemingly Manchester accent to imitate the American who he says is running scared.
