Floyd Mayweather Jr has revealed that he has no intention of fighting England's Amir Khan because "his name holds no weight".
The Bolton-born fighter has set his sights on the undefeated 37-year-old after beating Devon Alexander to retain his WBC silver title in Las Vegas last weekend.
However, Mayweather Jr says that Khan's profile is too low to consider a bout, instead reiterating his desire to square off with Manny Pacquiao.
"The other night I think he did 4,000 [attendance], so, Amir Khan, his name holds no weight," he told reporters.
"No-one knows who Amir Khan is, except for people who are involved in boxing. My focus is Manny Pacquiao. Let's make it happen."
Mayweather, a five-division world champion with 10 titles, has won all 47 of his professional fights, 26 of which have come via knockout.
