Amir Khan has predicted that Floyd Mayweather Jr will emerge victorious when he takes on Manny Pacquiao next week.
The unbeaten Mayweather clashes with Pac-man at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in a superfight that has the potential to set a new pay-per-view record for the sport, and Khan has backed 'Money' to edge out his Filipino opponent on May 2.
The Mirrror quotes the Bolton fighter as saying: "He has been in with every fighter, with every style – come-forward fighters, backwards fighters, quick fighters, guys who are quick on their feet, slow on their feet – and he has answered all of their questions.
"Four or five years ago, Pacquiao was doing the same. He was beating everyone who was put in front of him, knocking them down, knocking them out.
"But you've seen Manny have that little decline. Manny is a good single-shot fighter and from day one I've said the only person who could beat Mayweather is Pacquiao. But I'd go with Floyd because he has never been beaten, he's a better boxer – and a boxer will always beat a fighter."
Mayweather has won all of his 47 fights, claiming 26 knockouts along the way.
