BOLTON boxer Amir Khan is keen to get into the ring with American champion Floyd Mayweather.

And earlier this month, the 28-year-old was given the chance to 'knock out' the 38-year-old champion at an event in support of the Amir Khan Foundation. 

Amir was presented with a Mr Compensator 'Super Punch' Boxing Machine with a photograph of Mayweather's face stuck to the target. 

The video shows him take a powerful dig while onlookers cheer the father-of-one. 

He is hoping to face Mayweather at a showdown in September. 

Yasir Kayani, from claims management company Mr. Compensator, presented a cheque for £10,000 to the foundation for their work supporting orphans in Gambia.
