Amir Khan: Ex-world champion hopeful of returning to fight for a title in November

Former world light-welterweight champion Amir Khan says he hopes to return to the ring in November.

The 30-year-old last fought in May 2016 when he jumped weight divisions to face Mexico's Saul Alvarez for the WBC middleweight title, but was knocked out in the sixth round.

A fight against Manny Pacquiao was set for April but was called off.

"I've decided to take a big fight at the end of the year and for a title hopefully," Khan said.

"I was thinking of fighting at the end of this month but what I've thought of doing instead is fighting after Ramadan - I want to be back in the ring in November."

Khan also spoke about world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua's win over Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley and believes it will give the whole of boxing a boost.

Joshua's stunning victory on Saturday took place in front of a post-war British record 90,000 fans as he became WBA and IBF world champion.

"What a fight - it was like a Rocky movie, it was a crazy. I think that is what boxing needed," Bolton-born Khan told BBC Radio Manchester.

"Boxing is definitely one of the biggest sports in Britain and to see a 90,000 stadium full, that is somewhere I would love to be.

"Maybe I could see my career off having a big fight like that and then calling it a day as I've not got many fights left in me now."

November? Khan is just looking for big paydays to cash out on. If Brook beats Spence I hope he tells Khan to go f-ck himself.

Poor little boy left out of last weeks action, without even his celebrity commentators slot, lets face it nobody is interested in the irritating little bleeder any more, at least on this side of the Atlantic. Let him stick to what (few) purses he can get in the US together with Hello magazine pieces about his celeb wife upsetting his parents(yawn). As for waiting until November when Ramadamadingdong is over wtf is that? Arrogance or what? Sell a few muslim tickets? Man's a joke.

Khan should have tried to get Cotto. Bradley would be nice. Hell I'd even settle for Marquez. Khan wants a high reward fight without having done jack in the last year. Peterson would probably be available to him. He could chase the Garcia rematch. Is he going to be rated by any sanctioning body in November? Wouldn't he have to be to get a title shot?

Tony bellew at heavyweight.. because why not :S

[powerpuncher]

Khan looking for a big fight? Obviously! He isn't relevant anymore and wants a big payday to lose. Every other fighter on the planet would also love a big fight and make millions.

Khan should start all over again in the UK, Bolton preferably. He needs to be active, build up his confidence and profile against lower level domestic fighters.

I know he will not but he should.

[Mark TKO]

I question what Khan wants out of boxing any more.

Looks like just one fight a year to boost his income - no time for that kind of fighter.

Not that I've ever liked him of course

This dope still thinks he's bigger than boxing in Britain. Delusional prick has never even had a massive fight in the UK. Ignoring what Joshua and Froch have done at the O2 and Wembley - guys like Frampton, Brook, Crolla, Bellew have (will) headlined 15-25,000+ seaters on SKY PPV.

Khan's last PPV fight cost him £1.5m, it did less than 10,000 buys.

He should be begging Eddie for a slot on Brooks undercard.
