Amir Khan has his sights set on a fight with Floyd Mayweather and believes a shot at Devon Alexander is a step in the right direction.
Khan and his team have yet to convince IBF Welterweight champion Alexander to take him on and has insisted he is prepared to fight in America to get the bout the green light.
The Briton is looking to win a world title in a bid to attract a fight with Mayweather and is urging Alexander to sign up for a fight, pencilled in for December.
"We are looking at December 7 for my next fight and looking at opponents," said Khan.
"I have tried to get Devon Alexander. It was looking promising. He said he wanted to fight at the start and now it slowly seems that he is not 100 per cent sure about it, coming up with excuses.
"Even if it's not in Dubai, I will fight him in America, I will fight him wherever. It's all about moving to that big fight against Mayweather," Khan added.
"Hopefully getting this win against Alexander will get me into that fight."
Khan went on to explain that he is stepping up his training regime in San Francisco with coach Virgil Hunter as he looks to bounce back to the big time following his world title loss to Danny Garcia.
