Amir Khan believes he is ready to move onwards and upwards providing he beats Danny Garcia in the light-welterweight unification fight.

The 25-year-old Briton, who has been reinstated as WBA champion, takes on WBC holder Garcia in Las Vegas in a bout which will see the winner crowned Ring magazine champion.

Khan then plans to move up to welterweight and take on American superstar Mayweather. The Bolton fighter and his team are convinced he is ready for such a test, while Golden Boy Promotions boss Richard Schaefer insists it is "an easy fight to make".
