Amir Khan vs Devon Alexander Los Angeles press conference video…..

World class welterweights Amir Khan and Devon Alexander are once again set to fight, this time on December 13th. In a bout that will likely decide the next contender to Floyd Mayweather’s crown, there is a lot riding on their MGM Grand Arena, Las Vegas pairing. Little surprise then that a presser was held yesterday, and here are the best quotes:

Amir Khan

“This fight means a lot to me. At the end of the day it’s going to be a tough fight against an A-class opponent who I really believe I can shine against. This is a big fight for me. I’m one of those fighters that loves a battle and that’s exactly what this fight will be. I really want people to tune in and enjoy the show.”

“Alexander is fighting a big name and is also fighting in Las Vegas for the first time, so it’s only going to motivate him to train harder. When it comes down to the fight he knows that if he wins there will be a bigger prize at the end of this. It’s going to be an exciting and explosive fight.”

Devon Alexander

“It’s a dream come true for me to fight in Las Vegas. Every time that I was supposed to fight there during my professional career it always fell off. I said to myself that whenever I do fight in Las Vegas it’s going to be the right time, and there’s no better time for me then on Dec. 13.”

“This is definitely the biggest fight of my career because this fight determines who goes to the elite level and who has to start back over again. This fight determines who the cream of the crop is and I plan on showing people that I belong at the top.”

This is truly a great fight, and we’ll look forward to seeing who can really step it up and get the next level of opponent. At a time when Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather are nearing completion, could Amir Khan vs Devon Alexander decide the next boxing legend?
