Amir Khan claims he is better than Manny Pacquiao as he eyes Kell Brook fight for October or November
Bolton boxer was completely outclassed in his last fight against Terence Crawford before pulling out in the sixth

AMIR KHAN says he is "better" than Manny Pacquiao and will instead finally look to set up a fight against hated rival Kell Brook.
Khan was out-classed against in his last fight against Terence Crawford for the WBO welterweight world title.
Their scrap came to a bizarre end in the sixth round when Khan was hit with a low blow and said he couldn’t continue.
But Crawford was dominating the contest, and many believe Khan wasn't up for the challenge.
Speaking of retirement after the defeat, Khan told : “It never really crossed my mind, in the fight I was still there.
"He was technically a very good fighter and I did find it quite hard to get to him. But I still think, maybe not against a Crawford."
He then added that he believes he is still better than a lot of the so-called big names at welterweight and admitted a fight against Brook is the one that "excites" him.

He added: “I still feel I’m better than the guys like Danny Garcia, Lamont Peterson, Keith Thurman, Manny Pacquiao. Those fights could be big still.
“We’ve got names like Kell Brook there; still the top, top fighters there. I’m in a very lucky position that I have the opportunity to put bums on seats.
“TV networks like to see me fight and getting the top guys in the ring is quite easy. I’m still in a good position of getting the big names in, because we bring a lot of money to the table.
"Kell Brook still excites me. It’s a fight that’s always there. People say it’s a 50/50 fight, but I believe I would take out Kell Brook in six or seven rounds. That’s the fight that would be an easy sell.
