Khan talks of Hatton fight again
AMIR KHAN has reiterated his desire to take on Ricky Hatton in an all-British super fight.
The 21-year-old is currently preparing for next month's lightweight bout with Colombian Breidis Prescott in Manchester.
But he has already set his sights on a step up to light welterweight next year – which would bring with it the possibility of a fight with the 'Hitman'. When asked whether he would like to take on Hatton, Khan said: "Definitely. In 12 months' time I want to move up a weight, and that's definitely a fight of the future the British public want to see.
"I'd love the fight myself. Ricky's a great champion, he's done it the hard way and it would be great to share the same ring as him and put a great fight on for the British fans."
