Amir ready for Garcia challenge

Amir Khan looked in confident mood as he came face-to-face with his July 14th rival Danny Garcia for the first time.

The two-time world champion took part in a press conference in LA on Monday to announce the bout, which is taking place at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

Khan was upbeat and insisted that he has all the tools to hand the undefeated and current WBC light-welterweight world champion Garcia his first ever loss.

"I'm really looking forward to this fight and know that it's going to be a great match up and one that's going to get boxing fans excited," said Khan.

"I'm already in great condition and know that I have all the weaponry to beat Garcia and put on a fantastic show on July 14th. I'm not going looking for it, but I definitely want to produce a knockout," he said.

"Garcia is a good fighter but I think my speed and power will be too much for him, when we get into that ring I'm going to show without any doubt that I'm the best in the 140lb division," Khan added.

It is still unclear which belts could potentially be on the line until Lamont Peterson's hearing later this month.
