Amir Khan is not paying attention to the challenges of his domestic rival, IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook. Khan is hunting for several potential names for a planned return in May - Brook is not one of them. Brook defense his title next month in Sheffield against mandatory challenger Jo Jo Dan and won't be capable of coming back with such a quick turn around.
Khan hopes to land either Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Manny Pacquiao. Both of those fighters are currently negotiating to fight each other.
"There is no point in me fighting him just yet. Kell Brook is not on the same level as Amir Khan at the moment. He'll get there one day and obviously he's begging for the fight against me. But like I said, I'm on a different level and I want to fight the elite level of boxing...the biggest names in boxing. My name is being mentioned with the likes of Manny Pacquiao and Mayweather, Miguel Cotto. When Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao get asked who Kell Brook is, they say 'we don't know who Kell Brook is' - so I think that says it all," Khan told ITV.
