Brooklyn - Bill "Two Scoops" Emes catches up with Amir Khan, to discuss his twelve round decision win over Chris Algieri at the Barclays Center on Friday night, and Algieri immediately called on welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather to fight him. The Briton won by 117-111 on two cards and by 115-113 on the third and improved his professional record to 31-3, including 19 wins inside the distance

Algieri’s record fell to 20-2, with eight knockouts, as he lost for the second time in a row. In November last year he failed to beat Manny Pacquiao, who lost to Mayweather in boxing's richest fight earlier this month.

Khan thought he might fight Mayweather in May last year but Mayweather instead fought and beat Argentina's Marcos Maidana. The 28-year-old former Olympic Games silver medallist kept Algieri, 31, at bay much of the night, but Algieri landed a strong combination early in the eighth round. 

Khan said support from the crowd helped him push to the finish and secure the decision. Algieri did land many telling blows but was unable to match the Briton’s hand speed and work rate in an entertaining, high-class fight.<.
